6 stages you will definitely go through if you want to lose weight




1. Full of ambition, you start to lose weight.


At the beginning, you read some motivational articles and decide that you need to lose weight.


You eagerly look forward to the next morning because it marks the beginning of your new life.


You even bought a set of very professional sports equipment.


You feel very motivated and understand that losing weight is not easy, but you are determined that nothing will stop you on your weight loss journey.


Every dieter starts off very enthusiastically, feeling that they can definitely lose weight. However, for most dieters, this enthusiasm only lasts for this initial stage. After a few days, they find their motivation waning. Instead of reading a lot of motivational articles and stories, it's better to make a weight loss plan for yourself. Change some habits that can be changed (such as staying up late, drinking alcohol, drinking beverages...), and build a solid foundation for your weight loss journey.




2. Start training, feeling a bit confused.


Congratulations, you have passed the first stage of weight loss and entered the second stage. After exercising for a few days, you find that the results are not as good as expected.


What are you doing? - Imaginary running.


So you follow many running blogs and public accounts, hoping to find answers about fitness.


When you learn from these responsible running accounts about the principles and methods of weight loss, and understand that weight loss is a long-term endeavor...


At the beginning of your training, you will definitely encounter many problems. At this time, many people stop. In this stage, what a dieter needs most is knowledge. You need to know a lot of things. When should you consume carbohydrates? How can you exercise to lose fat the fastest? You can only find these answers by scanning the QR code below...




3. Get on track, fully committed.


At a certain moment, you finally decide to go to the gym.


The first time you go to the gym, you don't know what to do...


But you still use all your strength.


So the next day...


Your whole body aches, and you feel like you're going to die.


In fact, many people decide to go to the gym at the beginning of their weight loss journey. However, they do not train their physical fitness and basic knowledge in the gym. The editor's suggestion is that you should definitely go to the gym, but only after you have a certain foundation. Otherwise, many of the equipment in the gym will be useless to you.




4. Reap rewards, taste initial success.


One day, you look in the mirror and find that you really seem to have lost weight!


You are ecstatic and feel that you look amazing!


If you have already seen results, please stick with it! Many people think that losing a few pounds is enough and stop exercising. But they find that it doesn't take long for their weight to return!




5. Plateau period, a phase every dieter encounters.


There comes a time when you find that exercising becomes increasingly difficult.


Moreover, you start to lose control and want to eat all kinds of foods.


Temptations are everywhere, and you feel very frustrated!


Anyone who persists in losing fat for more than three months will encounter a fatigue period. Not only will there be psychological slack, but you will also enter a plateau period in fat loss. You will find that the rate of fat loss slows down. This is the last stage where you might give up. Try changing your diet method, adding HIIT training, and starting weightlifting. You will find that once you get through the plateau period, you are not far from a great body!




6. Phoenix rebirth, achieving your goal.


Not only have you become more beautiful, but you have also met your dream man/woman.


However, the road to fitness is endless. Once you succeed in losing weight, you have the foundation to talk about a slim waist and toned abs or strong arms. To achieve a truly perfect body, your journey will continue...
