According to nutritionist Nataniel Viunisk, however, by following some simple tips it is possible to lose weight in a healthy and lasting way. Check out his tips:
Lose weight and never gain it back
- Don’t just focus on the scale. “More than just losing weight, it is also important to consume healthy foods and practice physical activities that promote muscle mass gain”, says the nutritionist. Hunger is unhealthy.
- Beware of fad diets. Remember that the most important thing is to focus on your lifestyle, that is, with consistency and patience.
- Don’t forget the protein. “The macronutrient is essential for maintaining muscle mass and avoiding health problems”, warns Viunisk.
- Watch your portions. “Avoid large meals and prefer to divide your food throughout the day. This way, you avoid both hunger and overeating”, concludes the nutritionist.
