Different Ways to avoid Obesity

It is the first and most important step to fight against obesity. Exercise helps to burn calories and extra fat. Exercise 3-4 days a week for about 30 minutes but make morning walk your routine. Swimming, cycling, dancing, playing tennis, brisk walking, jogging help burn a lot of calories. Exercise releases endorphins, pleasure hormones that keep you in a good mood; also sweating helps your body to get rid of toxins.

Diet

It’s not just the exercise that you need to do to control your weight. Watch your diet! What you eat really matters. Increase the amount of raw vegetables and fruits in your diet. Cucumber is really good as it contributes very little in terms of calories, good for the digestive system and contains lots of water. Do not cut back on meat completely instead eat fish and skinless chicken. Keep your body hydrated.

Eat In small portions

 Eat 5 to 6 small healthy meals instead of regular 3 meals a day. In this way your stomach will not remain empty for longer periods of time and you will not feel starved.

Quit with the junk food

Tell yourself that you are not a food junkie. Say no to those fries, cheese burgers, and sugary soft drinks.

Weigh yourself

Get a weighing machine and check your weight every morning. It will motivate you to lose weight and will keep you informed about your progress. It will also help you to set a goal for every week.

Calculate your BMI

Normally a BMI of 18-25 is considered normal. 25-29 is overweight and 30 and above is obese while 35 and above lie in the category of morbidly obese.
