Dieting alone is not enough for a perfect body weight. Many people try extreme dieting to lose weight and fight against obesity, which is not a healthy approach. With extreme dieting one may lose little weight for a while but later on process of losing weight stops and inaddition it is not healthy.
The perfect approach is to have a balance and holistic approach towards losing extra body weight. Holistic approach towards weight loss involves balance diet, moderate exercise, optimum hours of sleep, around 8 to 10 glasses of water and few other factors.
A balanced diet must contain following things in the correct proportions.
1. Carbohydrates: these provide a source of energy.
2. Proteins: these provide a source of materials for growth and repair.
3. Fats: these provide a source of energy and contain fat soluble vitamins.
4. Vitamins: these are required in very small quantities to keep you healthy.
5. Mineral Salts: these are required for healthy teeth, bones, muscles etc.
6. Fibre: this is required to help your intestines function correctly.
Celebrity Trainer and Holistic Health consultant Subodh Gupta nicely explained in his video (below) that practice alone does not make you perfect but permanent. It is the perfect practice which makes a man perfect or gives favourable results.
So if you are trying to lose weight by wrong or incomplete practice, possibly you will be permanent in making a mistake and may never lose weight and may become frustrated.
So when trying to lose weight and fight against obesity, it is important to adopt a healthy and holistic approach involving balanced diet, moderate exercise and optimum sleeping hours.
