Just be aware of what you are eating and putting into your body and
that any type of carb consumed, simple or complex, in the absence of
any kind of exercise will lead to weight gain. Your body is efficient, if
the energy you consume is not used it will be stored as fat.
It probably pays to eat to the conditions. What is that I hear you ask?
Just like driving to the conditions if you know that it’s going to rain,
you of course drive a little more cautiously, you drive to the
conditions.
In the case of eating, you eat to the conditions. If you know that you
are out to play an intense game of tennis for the evening then you
consume extra carbs for energy. If on the other hand you’re going to
be sitting in a movie theatre for 2 hours than you consume a little less
as you won’t be undertaking any physical activity to burn it off.
Your diet should be higher in complex carbohydrates as it takes your
body longer to break them down meaning a slow, steady release of
energy. This is the best route to take for weight less as simple carbs
tend to release energy too quickly into your bloodstream giving you
massive highs and lows. Also the slow release means the less likely
you are to contract Type II diabetes at some point in your life.
However don’t forget that with any carbohydrate consumption must
always be accompanied with exercise.
We Have All Of This Knowledge – Now What?
With everything we’ve spoken about up until this point, it boils down to
2 things that you need to lose weight for good. What you eat and how
much you move.
You should eat sensibly, that’s not to say that you can’t have the
occasional treat from time to time. Just not every day. A lot of these
foods were absent from market shelves and from society just 50 short
years ago and the weight of the average person reflected this. So it
stands to reason that it is how we are eating that is keeping the
weight on our bodies. If we just shift our eating by reducing the high
fat, simple carbohydrate foods and move a little more like our
ancestors did, we will lose the weight.
