How to Maintain Proper Weight for Lifetime?

     We feel very happy after shedding extra fat from our body but our happiness vanishes when our body regains the reduced weight. This may happen with anybody if proper care is not taken. Body regains its reduced weight due to several reasons. Here we will discuss why this occurs and what to do to maintain proper weight for lifetime.

Many people feel that inflation and recession of weight are alternate in their life. For some time there weight keeps on reducing. For a brief period, the reduced weight remains stable but after some time it once again starts increasing. In such cases, a detailed study of all the factors responsible for such a situation should be made.

In most of the cases, wherein the reduced weight starts increasing once again, it is the lack of will power that is responsible for that development. Generally a weight reduction program is launched with great enthusiasm; but with the passage of time, the enthusiasm begins to decrease; dietary restrictions are ignored one by one and consequently the weight starts increasing once again.

Below are some useful suggestions that will help to maintain the weight loss for lifetime:

1. Once your body weight is reduced and brought down to a desirable level, the food intake should be slightly increased. But it does not mean that it should be so increased that the weight starts increasing again.

2. After achieving your weight loss goal, it is necessary to weigh yourself once a week to ensure that your weight continues to remain stable. Every time weigh yourself in the same type of clothes and footwear, at the same time of the day, preferably in the morning after emptying your bowels and the urinary bladder.

3. Sometimes you fail to resist the temptation to eat and consume food rich in carbohydrate. Once this occurs, you begin to flout dietary restrictions one by one and as a result weight starts increasing once again. You should get rid of such habit as early as possible. You can go for a walk or make yourself busy in other activities when you feel the temptation to eat high calorie foods.

4. Sometimes psychological problems also contribute to regain the reduced weight. You generally try to suppress your feeling of agony, depressions, worry, anger, etc. by flying to food. This should not be done at any cost.
