Myth # 3 – You can lose weight in a steady downward slope
Some people think that losing weight is a continuous and steady process
However, this can be an unrealistic expectation.
Your weight loss journey can have several fluctuations and plateaus.
The body has several mechanisms by which it tries to maintain your existing weight.
These complex set of processes and hormonal changes kick in as soon as you start to lose some weight. These include changes in the rate at which your body spends its energy at rest along with increased hunger and food cravings.
Some days and weeks you may lose weight, while others you may regain a little bit. This is not a cause for concern. It’s normal for body weight to fluctuate up and down by a few pounds.
As long as the general trend is going downwards, you may still succeed in losing weight over the long term.
You just have to maintain a disciplined and consistent approach over time.
It’s important to choose a weight loss program that provides guidance on overall lifestyle and eating habits.
