The Right Way to Diet without Harm to Health

Diet is an activity that a person does in order to lose weight. Weight loss is done by adjusting the diet and regulating certain intakes. When viewed from the way and the consequences, diet alone can be unhealthy. Therefore, we need the right way to diet without harm to health.

In the dieting process, one way to make the diet work is to do a calorie deficit. A calorie deficit is needed because everyone needs a different calorie intake. Therefore, we need to calculate the calories needed by the body for each day, how to calculate it is to use the BMR calculator available online. By knowing the calories we need, we can reduce our calorie intake and regulate our diet well by making our bodies adapt well.

            Limiting the intake of sugary foods and drinks is also very necessary, but it is also not necessary to be completely sure because we need fat intake for the body. With that we can start by avoiding the consumption of high-calorie drinks and foods and can replace them with low-calorie ones such as Greek yogurt, apples,etc. and for foods and drinks to be avoided are smoothies, macaroons, etc.; because it has a fairly high-calorie. Besides being able to lose weight, reducing consumption of sugary foods and drinks is also important in avoiding the risk of diabetes.

            In addition to doing the method as above, doing sports to lose weight is also important. We can target moderate intensity activities at least 3 times a week with a duration 2 hours. But it would be better if the exercise is done every day with duration  45 minutes. To make the body adapt well, we can start with light exercise such as walking, jogging, cycling, etc. exercise helps to eat more calories and provides other benefits, including strengthening bones and lowering the risk of chronic disease.

            Diets that we do in such ways need to be done in a long period of time or a lifetime, because if we do it in a short or irregular time we will not get satisfactory results and our weight does not decrease but vice versa. Therefore, the diet is not for the short term but for a lifetime because we need to regulate our diet properly so that the body remains ideal.
