Why People Are Not Losing Weight Despite Eating Less.

Eating less doesn't always work-If you cut out 1000 calories per day from your maintenance level, that will add to a 7000 calorie deficit in a week, there are 3500 calories in a pound of stored fat so cutting out 7000 calories should give you a weight loss of 2 pounds per week, Right ?, No wrong! It rarely happens that way!!

There is a very simple explanation to this- The body has a survival mechanism that kicks in the minute it senses that the number of calories it is getting is lesser than normal, since the human body cannot distinguish between "dieting" and "starvation", it naturally thinks that you are starving and will hold onto it's reserve of calories, thus dieting actually makes you "fat"!

So I guess it makes sense to stay away from very low-calorie diets as these affect your life in many ways like-

maybe initially you will lose weight but it will become progressively more and more difficult
binging and cravings will go up
your metabolic rate will slow down
you will feel weak and tired all the time
chances of rebound weight gain are high

BEST WAYS YOU CAN PERMANENTLY AND EFFECTIVELY LOSE WEIGHT-

Decrease only a small number of calories (for your RDA see here).
Start exercising a lot more to burn that fat, weight training is highly effective.
Divide your meals into 6 smaller meals so that your metabolism is high throughout the day, increase intake of protein(calculate the number of calories and macro-nutrients in your diet here).
Refrain from both fasting and feasting.
Remember it is more important to be fit and healthy.
Be patient!.

If you thought that "Nutritious" and "delicious" don't go together then you are in for a happy surprise!It is often thought that Healthy food is bland and boring and if you think so too then these recipes are just for you :)
