Want to lose weight? Eat more. As a general rule, you should never allow yourself to become hungry. Just like feeling thirsty means that you've waited too long and the earliest signs of dehydration are setting in, being hungry means that you've waited too long to eat since your last meal and your body is in need of nurishment. Allowing this to happen time and time again will slow your metabolism down, down, d-o-w-n ...
Does this, then, mean that it's okay to eat Burger King or Taco Bell five or six times per day? Believe me, I'm right there with you -- I wish it did. But of course it doesn't.
What it means is that if you eat 5 to 6 small, healthy meals and snacks throughout the day, you will lose weight over time. a Framingham Nutrition Study has found that women who consume 400 more calories per day and eat healthier are two-and-a-half times less likely to have an excess of abdominal fat than women who take in fewer calories but consume more saturated fat and less fiber.
想減肥嗎?多吃點就行了。有一條普遍準則說,你永遠不要讓自己餓著。感到渴了,表示你已經(jīng)等了好久,而且已經(jīng)出現(xiàn)了脫水的前兆;感到餓了,表示距離你上頓吃東西已經(jīng)過了很久,你的身體需要營養(yǎng)了。如果放任這種情況一次次出現(xiàn),你的新陳代謝會越來越慢,越來越慢……
這是不是說,我們可以每天吃五六餐漢堡王(Burger King)或者Taco Bell(一種墨西哥玉米卷,跟KFC一樣是連鎖店)?相信我吧,我已經(jīng)試過了——我希望可以這么吃。但實際上不可以。
這樣做才是正確的:每天吃五六頓量不大卻健康的正餐或小吃,這樣過一段時間,你就能瘦下來。一項Framingham營養(yǎng)研究發(fā)現(xiàn),每天攝取400多卡路里且飲食健康的女性,與每天攝取更少卡路里但多飽和脂肪少纖維的女性相比,后者腹部肥胖的幾率比前者多2.5倍。
所以,少食多餐,少脂肪多纖維,越吃就能越苗條!
