Information On Fasting For Weight Loss

If you are excessive fat then the amount of calorie that your body is burning is less than the amount of calorie intake. And this excess calorie intake is being stored in your body in form of fat. Fat is actually storage tissue which is there in our body for emergency use in future. Whenever there is any calorie intake shortage and our body requires a certain amount of calorie to carry on with the various physical activities, this storage tissues (fat) is used up.



Thus we see that if we want to reduce fat, then calorie burn has to be more than calorie intake. This ratio can be achieved either by increasing calorie burn, by increasing level of our physical activities or adopting any workout programs or by reducing the amount of our calorie intake. The latter is well known as fasting. Fasting can be done for many reasons and weight loss is one of them. Fasting helps to cleanse our system and in fact is good if done at regular intervals. However, it is advised not to go on complete fasts. One thing that has to be kept in mind is that fasting not only means eating less but consuming food products that have less calorie count.



Certain things that have to be considered if you are fasting for weight loss are the following:

1.One time fast will not get you the results immediately. You will have to keep fasting at regular intervals for some period of time to get the results.

2.You should not go on complete fasts and consume fruits and vegetables instead which have less calorie count. Lot of people do not take water also during fasting, this is not right as our body fluid s to be maintained all the time.

3.Do not keep fasting for many days at a stretch; instead go for fasts with regular gaps. Many people go for fasts for days to achieve quick results. This is not at all advised as they make your body weak. Once you achieve the result for which you were fasting like getting into that slim outfit, you again tend to over eat. Remember if fasting is not done in a proper process then it harms your body.

4.If you go back to the same amount of calorie intake after fasts, then there is no use as the weight will not go down. You will have to reduce your calorie intake after every fast. Your body requires less amount of calorie to do the same level of work and fasting helps you to determine this reduced amount of calorie intake and stick to it.

5.Do not overeat just after or before fasting. This will make the fasting unsuccessful. Both ways the calorie intake count is the same as before.

6.You have to understand that feeling hungry not always mean that you need food, most of the time it is your want for food as you have become used to over eating. You will have to control this tendency or this excessive want for food.



You might not get the results with one fast so do not give up for that. Follow the proper process over a period of time to get results.
