Hi Steemit Friends,
Through out the years of my weight controlling I've realized I've made more than one mistakes on the wrong understanding about dieting or losing weight.
Diet can be very unhealthy and here are some of the things i did wrong
1.Skipping Meals
I thought i would lose weight faster and i did, but the process made me feel starved and unhappy a lot. This works well and worked for me for a while until i notice some changes. My hair started to get thinner even until now that i'm eating better it's still fairly thin due to past diets. The long hours with out food the body goes into a "fasting" mode and can cause nutrient deficiencies. I was not putting enough into my body so through time it has lower but surely showing some unhealthy signs.
2. Working Out Too Much Or Too Little
Exercise is awesome but it can also be an addiction. People who starts exercise a lot cant stop and i used to be one of those. I would feel bad not to work out. I saw that i was consumed by it, so i tried stopping. When i stopped for while i got lazy and didn't want to do any. It's difficult to be disciplined but balanced it at the same time which is important.
3. Think Of Nothing Else
When i started thinking so much about my body i started getting obsessed and it started to be all i'd talk about and focus about.Everything was around how my body looked and felt but i forgot that my growth in other things are as important and i cant be only focusing on this. It was really hard to not face this when you are in the industry i was in all people commented was how you look so it's important that i drifted to self developments in other ways.
Everyone makes mistakes and i was that one person who harmed myself through dieting in some ways i dint even know. Sometimes i purposely don't go to socialized because i was scared i would eat too much. As i acknowledge it i started to change and become more balanced. I want to share to you all and think what are you doing today that your body doesn't appreciate. Listen to your body and dont be hard on yourself. Cherish yourselves.
Much love, Suzana

'listen to your body' is sound advice! Everybody has a different make up. I'm getting great weight control results from intermittent fasting. Nothing to eat after 7pm then lunch at 1pm.

@suerisue it's a great diet chart firstly yet time people leaving to food for a zero figure. But they know it's harmful for our body. Yaa we need to follow that chart it's really good health.

i understand that fasting is hard but if done right it can bring great results , the idea behind fasting as a diet is to put your body in a state where it goes for a long time not releasing insulin since insulin is a hormone that if it was released in a large amount in the body it can cause a lot of problems like when you eat healthy fats instead of burning it as an energy it store it as fat in the body

Hey @suerisue, this is the situation that I'm going through too. As I was reading the post, I thought to myself "Wow, you and me could be the same people"
I've always had trouble balancing exercise and dieting. Dieting is the HARDEST for me. I skip meals and go exercising intensely. Then next thing I know my body wants to eat EVERYTHING. I'm also to the point where I have to exercise everyday or I won't be happy. Usually when school starts, then everything goes downhill because I have no time to exercise. Hopefully this school semester I can make time for exercise and diet.
I learned no matter how much you exercise, if you don't eat right then you won't see the results you want. I'm still trying discipline myself so that I can get everything balanced, but it's a little difficult for me.
I will definitely keep working hard at it though. Thank you for your post and keep it up!!!!

Ayyy, at least you saw the mistake and look super fit now ;)
I've become a vegetarian recently and due to the lessened fat in my diet have seen pretty good results, but the pitfall of not eating enough is definitely more of a danger now. I have to eat almost non-stop to get the correct calories/nutrition.

Taking care of yourself is the name of the game. It is easy to get caught up in others peoples opinion sometimes, probably even normal. As long as we realize when it happens and get back in line we'll be alright!

Hey, great tips! They will be priceless for any beginner just starting his work out road. I've done many mistakes as well and I guess if you are not guided by somebody, but learning it yourself and by experience you are just meant to make mistakes, but now I have learned a great deal and wasted pretty much a lot of time, but I'm back, stronger than ever with correct mindset. Good luck to you and stay fit!

I agree with you. Definately listen to your body. Sorry to hear you learned it the hard way. The best way to stay fit is to combine any type of exercize you love with healthy eating. Also cutting down sugar really helps! Good luck, you look great! Thanks for sharing:)

Nice article. One definitely needs to figure out what works for them. But it's also important to know that intermittent fasting, such as not eating for 16 hours an eating within the other 8, can work. There's quite a bit of research done on that. You do need to make sure that you intake all the nutrients you need for the day in that 8 hour time period, but the only thing that does is compounding your food intake. Research even suggests that exercising on an empty stomach burns more fat, as the body needs to get to energy resources that have not been processed recently - which in this case would be your fat reserves.
But again, it is important to figure out what works for you, and it seems you've done just that!

@suerisue I can relate to this. There is so much external pressure and influence on how we should be with our bodies.

Your post is spot-on!! I am a wellness coach and see these same patterns in my clients ALL the time. Listening to your body is key. Don't starve yourself from the foods you love, just eat them in moderation. When we starve ourselves of what our body is craving, we are prone to over eat that thing when we do finally introduce it back into our diets. Thanks for your post!

Oh yeah, I've made these mistakes too. Mindset is everything I've found. I don't want to be slim but obsessed with food... hell no. My journey with food/weight loss and food issues has lead me to understand that when it comes to eating and being my perfect weight, freedom and happiness MUST be how I feel about it.
Great blog btw, cheers and followed! :)
