Diet Plans

Posted by Yung Fei

Diet? Need  or not??
A fat on your body is indicate that you have a gain weight and need to lose weight. You can look at your self in the mirror, how  about your body now,is there any changes or fat ? If it look fatter,you should think about getting diet. But before deciding on a weight-loss plan, You must now and pay attention: Are you sure that you need a healthy diet program?

Whether if your age still  between of 21 till 45, it is important for you to know and study about BMI. BMI is Body Mass index that is can indicate the condition of your body, are your weight is still in normal  condition or not. This calculate is accurate in reading of your body weight and fat and how much you must reduce it to become a normal body. To calculate BMI you can use this accurate formula:

BMI can get  from formula : your Weight < pound > / your height < inch > (squared) x 703


You can get 4 categories from the result of your BMI calculation:

1.      If BMI <18.5 its mean that you in underweight
2.      If BMI 18.5< BMI < 24.9  its mean that you in normal weight
3.      If BMI of 25.0 < BMI < 29.9  its mean that you in overweight
4.      If BMI > 30.0   its mean that you in obese



The next one that needs assessment — at least a rough estimation — is your body weight. First, know your frame. Using your thumb and middle finger, encircle your wrist. There will only be three outcomes: if the fingers don’t meet, you have a large frame. If they do meet, you have a medium frame. If there’s still space between your fingers and wrist, you have a small frame.

Then convert your height to inches and multiply by 6 to get your average ideal weight. (To get it in pounds, add 106.) This would be for medium-frame people. (For small frames, subtract 5 pounds from your weight. If large, add 5 pounds.) Divide your real weight by using your computed individual ideal weight.

The results and interpretation are as follows:

1.      < 1.00 = underweight
2.      Between 1.00 and 1.10 = ideal weight
3.      Between 1.11 and 1.20 = almost overweight
4.      between 1.21 and 1.30 = overweight
5.      > 1.31 = obese

Many diet plans for losing weight fail due to a host of factors. Some lay emphasis on quick fixes and ultimate success without looking at reality. Others claim that food habits alone should be changed and not the lifestyle itself. Eliminating whole food groups – like no-protein or no-carbohydrate diets – is a characteristic of fad diets. (Note: The body needs carbs too. Not taking these food groups may damage health, especially for those with pre-existing medical conditions.) Beware of diets that promise you the body of a supermodel in a short span of time – those would most likely be false advertising.

Overweight people may sometimes complain of other body pains aside from the change in weight. If this happens often, then it would be best to consult a doctor to rule out the possibility of any medical conditions that need treatment. When he gives the go signal, then you can now start working on a change to a healthier lifestyle, intake of balanced meals, and regular exercices.
