Follow us The reason being they stop following their diet and exercise after they have reached their ideal weight. Weight Loss: Do we stop losing weight after reaching an ideal weight We all know that it is difficult to lose weight, but what is more complicated is to maintain the weight you have lost. Most of the people who lose weight end up gaining it back within a year. The reason being they stop following their diet and exercise after they have reached their ideal weight. But another important question that bothers every individual is that do we stop losing weight after reaching an ideal weight.1x1 pollsThe answer is yes, it is possible. Let's see why this happens: Why this happens:The amount of physical activity you perform and the type of diet you follow, both play an important role in determining how much weight you will lose and when your body will stop. But if you have stopped losing weight that does not necessarily mean that you have reached an ideal weight - in proportion to your height and age. Set goalsAs soon as you decide to lose weight, the first thing you should do is identify a healthy weight range for yourself. Choose a weight that is in proportion to your height or use the Body Mass Index (BMI) method to determine an ideal weight for yourself. Setting a goal is very necessary, it will equip you to recognize your progress. This will also help you to keep track of the amount of weight you have lost. Set small goals and after achieving it you can re-assess your aim. It is entirely up to you if you want to lose more weight or not. FactorsThere are several factors that lead to weight loss after you have reached your ideal weight. A person will continue to lose weight if he will maintain a negative calorie balance. Your weight loss will also become stagnant if you follow the same type of exercise and diet. So it is important to keep changing your diet and workout routine as per your requirement. As you lose weight, you need to adjust your workout routine and diet accordingly, else you will keep on losing more. What to doIf you continue losing weight after reaching your desired shape then increase your calorie intake. It is important to maintain your caloric diet as per your body weight. Start taking 200 more calories to maintain your ideal weight. Bottom lineDiet and exercise are important to lose weight, but it is equally important to maintain your weight. In order to drop kilos in a healthy way include fruits, vegetables, whole grains and lean source of protein. Include cardio, weight training and flexibility exercise. Fix your activity level as per your fitness level and take proper guidance before adding anything new in your workout routine. End of ArticleFOLLOW US ON SOCIAL MEDIA
