Weight loss doesn't begin in the gym with a dumbbell; it starts in your head with a decision. A decision to make oneself more active, more productive and more healthier than one was a day earlier. After the Covid, people have taken a step back from their busy lives to realise the importance of keeping themselves fit and their gut healthy. 

Many have turned away from stressful or uncomfortable routines and opting for everyday activities like simple exercises, light food and appropriate sleeping schedule. But still, every year, we observe many individuals around us going on extreme diets and unhealthy habits to shed their extra pounds which in turns fires back and the person ends up gaining more than what he originally lost.

Losing extra weight is very important to be able to perform everyday tasks without difficulty. Excessive fat content in a human body is the root cause of many illnesses in both men and women such as PCOS, cardiovascular diseases, diabetes, indigestion, and much more. 

If you’re also someone who is dedicated to lose the stubborn weight fast, here’s two key things you need to remember.

  • First and foremost, the weight loss should be sustainable. Following extreme calorie deficit diets and excessive workouts can lead to more bad than good results in the longer run. Many reports suggest that such type of routine may cause increased weight gains once an individual slacks off even a little bit. It is okay to make slow progress that is sustainable than make large leaps that will cause injury or just make you lose all the weight again after changing your routine.

  • An important aspect of working on your body is to know your body and how it works. It has so many benefits than one can possibly imagine.

Why is it important to know your body for effective weight loss:

1. Personalised Approach:

Different people respond to weight loss strategies differently. Understanding your body's unique characteristics (e.g., faster or slower metabolism, hormonal imbalances) allows you to create a plan that's tailored to your specific needs.

2. Realistic Expectations:

Knowing your body's natural set point and how it reacts to weight loss efforts can help you establish realistic goals and avoid discouragement.

3. Avoiding Plateaus:

Many people struggle with weight loss plateaus. Understanding how your body adapts to changes in calorie intake and exercise can help you find ways to overcome these plateaus and keep moving forward.

4. Identifying Underlying Issues:

Weight fluctuations or sudden weight changes can sometimes be a sign of an underlying medical condition. Monitoring your body's signals can help you identify potential problems early on.

5. Sustainable Lifestyle Changes:

Focusing on understanding your body and its needs promotes a shift towards sustainable lifestyle changes rather than relying on restrictive diets or quick fixes.

6. Improved Health and Well-being.

By understanding your body and its needs, you can create a weight loss plan that not only helps you reach your weight goals but also supports your overall health and well-being.
