1. I don't eat much, but I won't lose weight if that's possible
So if you don't lose weight for a long time, it's a good idea to first consider whether your daily calorie intake is right. There are a lot of apps on the market today that make it easier to control your energy intake. So you can really assess your calorie consumption. This is a very good way to build nutritional awareness. Most people can't estimate how many calories you're currently eating when you lose weight. It's good idea, however, to keep a daily calories intake, both in paper and electronic form.2. The thermal effect of food
Granata, L.J. In the context of weight loss, this means that if the established deficit is 400 kcal, the deficit, taking into account the thermal effect of food intake, is 360 kcal. It is assumed to be about 10% of the calories of food (G.P. Brandon 2002).3. NEAT and the fat reduction process
It's important to note that when you reduce fat, you have less energy, which indirectly translates to a reduction in post-workout physical activity. Less movement during the day means you burn fewer calories, so the deficit is less than you thought. NEAT (non-exercise activity thermogenesis) is post-work physical activity, i.e. walking, hiking, window washing, etc. The human body defends itself against deficit, which limits unnecessary energy expenditure.4. Causes of weight fluctuations
Many people experience stagnation or even weight gain during their weight loss process despite diet and physical activity.5. Monitoring progress during weight loss
Additionally, women should pay attention to the phase of the cycle in which they are currently in. It's also a good idea to take pictures of their body shape, so you can see real changes, but remember to always weigh the same weight in the morning, fasting, and after the morning bathroom.
