Can yoga lose weight?

Can yoga lose weight?

I have practiced yoga for more than a year, and I have grown 8 kg without losing weight. Can yoga lose weight?


This is a question mentioned by a fan in a private message chat. I think it's very interesting, so share it with you.



This fan is a middle-aged woman in her 40s. She was not fat when she started practicing yoga. She was 165 in height and 105 in weight. She was quite satisfied with her figure, and she often heard little sisters praise her figure. it is good. Since I am in my 40s, all aspects of my body will inevitably go downhill, and my skin will feel loose, especially the contour lines on my face have begun to sag, showing signs of initial aging. I heard that yoga can delay aging, tighten skin, and strengthen physical fitness, so I chose yoga.

It`s been almost a year since she started practicing yoga. She is following a big yoga class, and the practice is considered hard. Basically, she keeps practicing at around 5 exercises a week, and the minimum is no less than 3 to 4 exercises.



The effect is in her own words: Although her figure has not changed much, she has made a group of friends. Every time she finishes the yoga class, she is very happy. She feels like she has become younger. Therefore, it seems that no change in her figure has become less important, but let her My suspicion was that I was weighed on the scale once and found that my weight had increased by a full 8 catties, from 163,105 to 163,113 all at once. I was more entangled in my heart, asking why this is so, is there any need to continue practicing?

This can't help but remind me of a common topic about yoga, can yoga be able to lose weight?



Continuing to chat with her, it can be said that she and I have discovered the problem at the same time, and share it so that everyone will not step on the pit.

That is to eat too much and too much after exercise, regardless of time.

Originally, her weight has been maintained at around 105, she has never deliberately exercised, and she has never deliberately controlled her diet. However, it can be seen from the chat that although she has not deliberately controlled her diet, her diet is very regular. She has three meals a day and is full, no snacks, no extra meals, and dinner is eaten early, basically at 7 o'clock in the evening. After that, I won`t eat anymore. Note that this is not the result of her deliberate control, but her natural lifestyle.



But after practicing yoga, my eating habits have changed a lot. I often make up at 9 o'clock in the evening and then go to bed to rest. According to her own introduction, she always attends yoga classes from 7:30 to 8:30 in the evening. After going home, she feels very hungry. She will find something to make up for it. Over time, she develops a habit. When I go home, I have to eat. In her words, I`m tired from practice and sleep well after eating.

Regarding the changes in diet, she herself was worried about whether she would become fat after eating. Later, I thought about self-comfort. I didn't exercise before, but now I exercise a lot. It's okay to eat more. The result was a tragedy.



Hungry after exercise, the appetite will start to eat more. In fact, many people have this experience. How to do it? Share some of my own practices.



1. To slow down eating is to chew slowly.

It is normal to have an appetite after exercise. If you consume more, you naturally want to add more. This is a natural law. But don't eat the rice in big mouthfuls, chew slowly. When you feel full in the same amount of time, you will eat less food. This is not nonsense, everyone with scientific evidence and practical proofs can give it a try. And chewing slowly is good for the stomach.

2. Don't develop the habit of eating immediately after exercise



It's really strange to get used to this stuff. Once you develop the habit of eating after exercise, you feel awkward if you don't eat something after exercise. Therefore, I must not allow myself to develop such a habit. You can eat a piece of fruit before exercise, and two biscuits are better than eating after exercise.

3. Don't start to indulge your diet just because you exercise.



I don`t know if you have this kind of thinking, anyway, I did at first. I will pay more attention to control when I eat before not exercising. I exercise a lot now, so it`s okay to eat two more bites. The key is to tell yourself this every time you eat something, that if you have two bites, it becomes very impressive.

According to feedback, every time I return home from yoga class these days, I still want to eat, but I don`t indulge myself like I did before, chew a little biscuit or two, and then rest.

Of course, it may take some time from discovering the problem to solving the problem and seeing the results. This netizen and I will wait and see.
