With hectic schedules, enticing food options, and fitness regimens that don’t always work, losing weight can seem like an uphill battle. In her August 12 Instagram post, Pearl, a lady who lost 78 kg to 65 kg in six months, detailed the doable strategies and lifestyle adjustments that enabled her to make this turnaround.
In six months, I went from 78 kg to 65 kg. Just science and consistency—no fad diets or miracle medications. This is precisely what I found to be effective, along with the reasons why.
1. Deficit of calories
Research firmly supports the idea that fat loss results from consuming less calories than the body uses. A study by Hall et al. (2016) confirmed the fundamental idea of calorie deficit in weight control by showing that weight loss occurs when there is a negative energy balance.
2. Periodic fasting from 12 to 6 p.m.
It has been demonstrated that intermittent fasting, especially time-restricted eating, improves metabolic health and increases fat oxidation. According to a study by Hoddy et al. (2016), alternate-day fasting may help people lose weight because it boosted fat oxidation by more than 15 grams per day in non-obese subjects.
3. Ten to twelve thousand steps every day
Aiming for 10,000 to 12,000 steps per day when walking has been linked to better health results. According to research, walking 10,000 steps a day can help reduce waist circumference and body fat percentage, improving general health.
