True or false weight loss? Look at the most important index of women's weight loss
According to a survey on women's "true and false weight loss", 81% of women are dissatisfied with the weight loss effect, generally reporting a serious rebound. 89% of women are not aware of the success or failure of weight loss, and should pay more attention to whether their fat percentage has dropped.
The professor pointed out: At present, it is not enough for female friends to rely solely on weight measurement to judge the weight loss effect. Weight loss does not necessarily mean that weight loss has been successful. Many times all we lose is protein and water. After a while, a lot of water comes back to the body and causes weight gain. This is not difficult to explain why there are so many phenomena of "weight loss and quick rebound".
The professor believes that weight loss is not the goal. Weight loss should be the ultimate goal of reducing fat. Only a decrease in fat means that weight loss has been successful. Therefore, weight loss must be monitored. In Europe, America and Japan, fat monitoring at home has become a trend.
Internationally, there are currently three measurement methods for instruments used for home fat monitoring: two-hand measurement, two-foot measurement, and simultaneous measurement of both hands and feet. Studies have shown that when measuring both hands and feet simultaneously, the error between the measured results and the reference value is the smallest.
Fat monitoring at home can provide female friends with the most scientific and comprehensive weight loss guidance. First of all, before starting weight loss, monitor your fat rate first to determine which type of obesity you belong to among "obesity","invisible obesity", and "muscular obesity", which helps you choose a symptomatic weight loss method. During the process of weight loss, it is best to monitor the fat rate every day. If weight loss is detected but the fat rate has not dropped, it means that obesity has not left. This will urge the dieters to appropriately adjust their weight loss strategies so that they can continue to move towards reducing fat. Work hard on the goal. (Editor in charge: Yang Miao)
