Weight and health are closely related.
More and more people will have a weighing scale in their homes. However, if you lose weight, it is not enough to have a weighing scale alone. Dr. Clove tells you that you may need at least 5 sets.
First Weighing Scale
Weighing scale is essential, but not everyone should weigh every day.
If you are prone to [BLX] due to natural physiological fluctuations in your weight…
- It is good to weigh at most once a day, otherwise it is too easy to be hit and give up losing weight. However, the weight should be weighed at least once a week as a supervisor. The best choice is Wednesday: Wednesday is the middle of the week, with the most regular life and relatively accurate weight data. Take photos or record the weight count into charts for self-motivation.
If you are calm enough and strong enough to lose weight, you can weigh yourself every day.
- Weighing time should be fixed, preferably after defecation in the morning and before breakfast. Every time you weigh yourself, try to wear similar light clothes.
Note:
The speed of weight loss should not be too fast. The best speed to lose weight smoothly without rebounding is to lose 0.5 ~ 1kg or 1% of the initial weight per week.
The second body composition meter
After all, lose weight and lose what? Of course, it is to lose body fat, not just weight.
Crazy diet and hard exercise seem to lose weight fast, but it is very likely that the weight lost is only water and precious muscles of the body, which is easy to become [fat-prone constitution].
Therefore, you will need a body composition meter that can measure changes in fat, muscle and water components: it is currently equipped with equipment in more gymnasiums and is almost unlikely to appear in ordinary families because the price is too expensive.
Through the data analysis of the body composition meter, a comprehensive report is given, which is helpful to formulate a more suitable exercise diet plan.
Note:
Many reporting items of the body composition meter are calculated by combining the biological resistance measurement method with the formula [calculation], which does not have absolute accuracy and will have certain errors.

The third body fat scale
It doesn’t matter if there is no high-priced body composition meter. You need a weighing scale that can measure body fat rate: body fat scale, just fine.
At present, there are many such [smart hardware] on the market, which can be matched with bracelets, mobile phone App, computers, etc. for health management.
In about one minute, you can measure your whole body [body fat rate], and some can also measure [visceral fat rate]-closely related to the judgment of abdominal obesity and chronic disease risk.
Although the project is not as comprehensive as the body composition meter, it is enough for you to observe the changes in your body fat rate and know whether you have really lost [fat].
The fourth food scale
To lose weight, it is very important to keep your mouth shut: to change your eating habits and to control your appetite reasonably.
Often a food scale is more important than weighing scale.
This is not to say that the weight of the food should be weighed and calculated before every meal. Instead, through the initial use of food scales, you can be familiar with the amount of food you eat most often, and combine the information of food nutritional ingredients to master the calories and nutritional characteristics.
For example, a fist-sized apple has about 200 grams and 100 kilocalories. A cup of milk (disposable paper cup) is about 200g and has about 100kcal calories. An egg is about 50g and has about 70kcal calories.
For example, it is also a slice of sliced bread, the weight may range from 25 to 50g. If it is not weighed, it may not be known that there is twice the difference in calories.
The fifth time scale
Finally, you also need a scale called time.
Losing weight is the process of forming good living habits. It requires you to learn to better balance your study, work, diet, leisure and entertainment, and sleep, and to set aside exercise time in a planned way.
You can’t even control your weight. How do you control your life?
Even the time is not well controlled, how do you control your weight?
