How to go about losing weight if you are a woman?

donnabila Nutritionist and personal trainer, Dick Talens, explains, based on his experience with female patients, why women lose weight less than men. On the contrary. Which ones are they. Because according to him there is more than one. Here are the obstacles women face when they want to lose weight:
1) Mother Nature:women are biologically disadvantaged compared to men. By nature, a better metabolism tends to be slow, able to adapt to childbirth and hormonal problems, but above all able to survive and not lose weight easily. Slow metabolism is resistant metabolism, and sufferers typically appear younger as well. Those who have a faster metabolism have everything faster: even cellular aging. In fact, men, who only have to inseminate, are biologically more metabolically fast. Women: No. And their bodies try to resist any attempt to lose weight.

2) Women are more critical of themselves: a man can also lose his battle with extra pounds, for women it is a daily nuisance.
3) Women often lead stressful lives, making decisions for many ridiculous things : think about how to dress, make up, do your hair. Trivial things that give us stress.
4) Women and hormones (less joys and more pains): the woman retains more liquids due to hormones; she is more hungry for sugar due to hormones; she has to eat more carbohydrates because of hormones.
5) Women are socially disadvantaged: the most famous diets are designed for men and not really for women; workouts in the gym are often geared towards men; the same are the portions in restaurants, fast food restaurants, etc. It is not a world fit for women, but a world fit for men.
There. Given the five problems rowing against our diets, Dick suggests these things:
1) Focus on small weight losses per week : like 350 grams or a pound. So as not to excessively reduce our low daily calories.
2) Measure your weight once a month: there is no point in stressing yourself behind the scales. Dick advises not to step on the scale when we are feeling bloated, have water retention and other problems. Once a month may be enough.
3) We try to loosen the grip on many things : choose a weight loss regimen, let’s follow it and try to be patient. And in general we try to take life with less stress.
4) Try to do sports or activities customized for women and imitate women who are successful in fitness: also try to have a female coach or a coach (but the same thing could be for the dietician) who knows the needs of a woman.
