You full? It is not always your fault!

Like the rule of weight loss are quite simple: is less, to move more. Then why millions of people around the world continue fight against excess weight and do not grow thin as they want? It is known that about 20 percent of people around the world constantly keep to some diet, and 40% of men and 30% of women regularly visit trainings and watch the physical activity. That is, so many people are in constant desire to lose weight. Means, not everything is so unambiguous, and not for all this simple principle works: "is less, to move more".

It appears, our many efforts on weight reduction are contrary to what else enters our life. For example, some drugs lead to increase in weight (these are antidepressants, drugs at migraine, at diabetes, from high blood pressure), provoke completeness of a disease which you do not guess and also some types of trainings and just wrong way of life.

To understand why you thick, it is necessary to know a lot of things about himself and the health. Let's consider in what the problem of excess weight can be. Perhaps, these reasons for you prevent to lose weight.

PROBLEM: Gradual smooth increase in weight

Reason: Slow metabolism or extreme diets.

Since 30-year age our metabolism (speed with which we burn calories, being at rest) slows down for the whole 5% for each 10 years. It means that you will burn on 100 calories a day less at the age of 35 years, than it was in a 25-year state, and on 200 calories a day it is less at 45-year age and so on. Such delay is enough to put annually on the weight of 4-6 kilograms!

Extreme diets (are those which give big loss of weight for very short period, so-called yo-yo of a diet, or strict diets) worsen metabolism process, by the way, irrespective of your age. The organism slows down a metabolism because it turns on this mechanism only when hungers, but is not constant, at any meal.

Who in a risk zone: All, to whom for 30, persons interested to lose weight.

Solution. To increase physical activity. Two times a week surely power intensive trainings to build up muscle bulk, and it will allow to increase metabolism speed. Muscles burn 25-33% more calories, than it does fat. Increase in muscle bulk leads also to increase in speed of metabolism at rest and rest. If to replace 5 kg of fat with 5 kg of muscles, then the organism will burn every day 40 calories bigger, being at rest. At first sight, it is a little, but in a week it turns out 280 calories, and in a month 1120. And it is quite enough to lose weight without diets.

What trainings it is better for accumulation of muscle bulk? Consult to the fitness instructor and if there is no opportunity, then pay attention to push-ups, squats, attacks, exercises with dumbbells (it is possible to replace with bottles with water).

PROBLEM: Increase in weight against the background of drug intake

Reason: Side effects from the taken medicine.

Many popular medicines belong to drugs which are directly connected with increase in weight. It first of all, antidepressants, drugs which write out at migraine, drugs for diabetics and also medicines from high blood pressure.

Who in a risk zone: All who take the listed above drugs. Together with it drugs can affect differently different people. And if at one weight goes up, at another the same drugs can opposite, lead to weight loss.

Solution. Here not to do without the help of your doctor. To independently stop taking the medicine prescribed to you it is impossible. But if you think that a set of weight happens because of side effects of medicines, then you can ask your therapist to pick up alternative drugs, perhaps, they will not lead so strongly to a set of weight.


PROBLEM: The trainings which are not leading to weight loss

Reason: Incorrectly chosen type of trainings.

Who in a risk zone: As it was told above, about 40% of men and 30% of women who are regularly engaged in physical exercises cannot lose weight.

If to change nothing in the trainings, then there is a so-called effect of "plateau" when the organism adapts to loadings, at the same time combustion of fat and calories sharply decreases.

Solution. Occupations have to be various, it is worth including fragments of more intensive loadings in them. For example, if you run – these are several minutes of sprint if you go – jogging. It will allow to make active a metabolism within the next 24 hours. For example, having just switched from walking to jogging, calories will be burned 100% better and time spent on it will be cut by half.


PROBLEM: Pear-shaped type of a figure, with weighting of the lower part (thick legs and hips)

Reason: Hypostases and a delay of liquid in fatty tissues.

The swelling-up legs can be caused by abnormal accumulation of fatty cages under skin, along with it in these fatty cages liquid collects. Externally it sometimes looks as bruises and cellulitis.

Who in a risk zone: from 5 to 10% of women. The exact reason is not established yet, the fifth part of all cases - it are heredity.

Solution: Drugs do not exist, but there are special supporting clothes, or bandagings which support fabrics and stimulate lymphatic system to removal of excess liquid.


PROBLEM: A wide waist, feeling of distension in a stomach

Reason: Food intolerance of some food.

The meteorizm, nausea, diarrhea, discomfort after a meal can be other signals. It can be followed by fatigue and joint pains. If the organism does not transfer any products, it is difficult for it to digest them, and they remain in a digestive tract, being digested only partially. As a result the remains of food begin to interact with bacteria.

The most widespread products which your organism can not accept, - milk and wheat. The intolerance of the lactose which is contained in milk and dairy products meets rather often.

Who in a risk zone: In different degree all of us. But with age it meets even more often, especially, as for intolerance of lactose.

Solution. Symptoms of food intolerance can be shown not at once, unlike, for example, allergy which can be defined right after consumption of some products. Therefore experts advise to write down everything that you eat. Create "the food diary", you bring there all food, all drinks and drugs which you consume. Write down also what you feel. After several weeks you will be able to understand whether you have an intolerance of some products.

As soon as you decide on products which cause discomfort (most often it is wheat, milk, eggs), exclude them from a diet (on one for several days), and then you will be able to understand, the refusal of what products facilitates a state. Be not afraid, you will need only 1-2 weeks to lead the menu to optimum. If you cannot independently solve a problem, come to the doctor with the "food diary", you will be helped by the expert.


PROBLEM: Increase in weight after 40-50 years

Reason: Hormonal changes at women of middle age.

About 90% of women begin to grow fat in the period of a menopause, and often increase in weight begins gradually, in the period of a pre-menopause, is closer by 40 years. At the same time, excess weight concentrates generally in the middle of a body. All this is result of an imbalance of three major hormones: estrogen, progesterone and testosterone.

Sharply the level of progesterone and testosterone falls, and estrogen becomes the dominating hormone. Estrogen decreases too, but against the background of reduction of other hormones, it becomes a little excessive. And estrogen forces an organism to accumulate fatty deposits, suppressing use of fat for obtaining energy. As a result weight increases ruthlessly, and no physical activities save.

Who in a risk zone: All women are more senior than 40 years.

Solution. Healthy food, active lifestyle and … acceptance of age changes. You should not take offense at estrogen, it carries out for us many useful things. For example, facilitates menopause symptoms, such as alarm, inflows. And also provides some protection against osteoporosis.


PROBLEM: Fat in a bottom of a stomach and on a waist.

Reason: A syndrome of polycystous ovaries which is connected with a hormonal imbalance (too much testosterone and other men's hormones).

Who in a risk zone: from 5 to 10% of women of childbearing age have such problems. So far the phenomenon is not studied, but the hereditary character is confirmed.

Irregular periods or their absence, pimples, excess face and hips hair, thinning of hair on the head can be other signs of this manifestation. A fat congestion in the center of a body: on a breast, a waist, a stomach, a back.

Solution. If weight increases against the background of lack of periods or irregular monthly, take a blood test on hormones and also ask the doctor to make ultrasonography of ovaries. If the diagnosis is confirmed, will offer you medications for treatment and relief of symptoms. Also the diet controlling excess insulin is shown.


PROBLEM: A gradual increase in weight plus a bloated face.

Reason: bad work of a thyroid gland.

The thyroid gland (located in a neck) is responsible for metabolism control, helps to transform food to energy.

The fragility of hair and nails, lack of energy, dryness of skin, frequent feeling of cold can be the symptoms accompanying violation of activity of a thyroid gland. If your thyroid gland does not function properly, the organism can produce too much jellylike substance under the name mucopolysaccharides which do you a little swelled that is especially noticeable on a face.

Who in a risk zone: Women by 10 times are more inclined to problems with a thyroid gland, than men. Often these violations meet during pregnancy or a climax. Bad food also can influence development of a disease. Considerably, the weak immunity influences this state. The hereditary factor also affects, you can be born with it, but for the time being not notice, and viruses, stresses, pregnancy can start a disease.

Solution. See a doctor to make blood test. If the slackness of a thyroid gland is established, medicine will be prescribed you (for example, levotiroksin, the synthetic version of hormone of a tiroksin).


PROBLEM: Constant condition of a swelling, hypostases, swellings

Reason: Water delay, perhaps renal failure, problems with a liver.

Periodic delays of water – it is not a problem, it meets often, both at men, and at women. Here it is about a constant edematous state. And then it has to be alarming.

Other symptoms: the swelled-up anklebones and shins. Try to pinch yourself where puffiness is observed. Has to guard you if you are not able to make it if hypostases too dense. A problem here in work of a liver and kidneys. They do not cope to save an organism from salts. Therefore liquid collects, she is late salts.

Who in a risk zone: People with the increased blood pressure, the diabetics sick with hepatitis and also those who excessively consume alcohol.

Solution. It is better to consult to the doctor. Smooth increase in physical activity, salt consumption reduction, consumption of enough water will help to facilitate a state.


PROBLEM: Constant completeness

Reason: Genetic.

Numerous researches prove that there is a concrete gene which promotes fat accumulation. There are also genes which control appetite. Together with it, there are also opposite genes allowing to intensify fat destruction irrespective of diets and a food allowance. All this explains why often whole families have excess weight, and cannot "break" this trend in any way.

Who in a risk zone: According to some researches, every sixth inhabitant of the planet is the carrier of the genes promoting increase in weight.

Solution. Such people should play more persistently sports, than the others. You should not be guided by the majority, for them there can be enough just foot walks, and people with genetic predisposition to completeness should work over themselves more intensively.
