Fad diets that promise extreme weight loss in a short period of time cause a person to deprive themselves of food, which is not sustainable and will eventually lead to a return to familiar eating patterns.

There is also some science behind why we regain weight after short-term weight loss programmes.

When you lose weight quickly and become hungry, your body responds quickly. If you lose 1 to 2 kgs per week, your body will adjust and begin to believe that this is the weight it should be at, and you will not become extremely hungry as a result of the rapid weight loss. Moreover it can also cause serious nutritional deficiencies in the body which can at times cause irreversible damage to the body or cells.

IF you loathe lunges, wince at weights and are more likely to run for the ice cream van than finish a 5km, we may just have found the workout for you.

It turns out that with a few tweaks, getting frisky between the sheets can give you a cardio workout, train your core and tone your legs, bum and tum and its much more enjoyable than being barked at by a militant gym instructor.

But before you get down and dirty, Rebecca Dakin, AKA The Great British Sexpert, says: It does require high-energy love-making sessions to lose weight.

So my first bit of advice would be to build stamina.

Step up: Edging, an orgasm control technique where a person gets right up to the point of orgasm before stopping and starting again.

The author, hypnotherapist and coach explains: Work on edging with your partner so that you can both last longer pre-orgasm.

Usually penetrative sex pre-ejaculation is only a six-to-eight minute job maximum, so you want to be building to at least 30-40 minute sessions to have an impact.

And the sweatier, the better!

While youre working towards this, there are also certain positions to practise that will maximise the results from your marathon sex workouts.

If you thought the top sexercise moves would involve complicated Karma Sutra contortions, think again.

Provided youre both equally committed, this boring position can give your core a real workout.

Missionary is very underrated, says Rebecca. But its quite energetic and the butt clenching makes it a good one for glutes.

For the partner on the bottom, theres an opportunity to push yourself upwards engaging your core and using your glutes so that youre moving together rather than just lying there.

You can really work on engaging your core with this one, says Rebecca.

Make sure to also move your butt upwards rather than let them do all the work.

You'll also be using your quadriceps and glutes to help brace yourself against the impact.

The key with this position is to squat with your feet flat, says Rebecca.

That way youll be toning your legs, bum and tum all at once.

6

But if squats are too intense to start, build up from the more common cowgirl position with your knees down.

You will still be working your lower abs and pelvic muscles, and if you hug your legs into your partners side, youll engage your quads and calves, too.

With the bridge, the receiving partner is facing upward, using all four limbs to hold their body weight off the bed.

This one works all the major muscle groups you want to hit: biceps, triceps, abs, glutes, quads and calves.

6

But, be warned! Its not easy.

You might want to try it first with pillows under your back to help support your weight you will still be engaging your buttocks and inner-thigh muscles.

Its worth the extra effort though: This ones really good for clitoral stimulation, says Rebecca.

If you're familiar with the lotus yoga pose, you'll have an idea of what this position entails.

Rebecca explains: If he sits down cross-legged and the female sits on top and straddles, you can get a good intimate connection with this one but it can also be quite energetic.

6

Youve just got to co-ordinate and get the bounce right.

The core is engaged to stabilise the body and the thrusting gives the glutes a good workout.

And the award for the sex position with the least sexy name goes to

Nevertheless, the wheelbarrow is a great move to work up a sweat.

The receiving partner starts on the floor and uses their hands to balance in a plank-like position.

Then the giving partner lifts the receiving partners legs off the ground and holds them at waist level.

For him, this position is great for legs and core, and for her, the arms, says Rebecca.

We all know that cooking at home is one of the best ways to ensure you are eating healthy. You get full control over menu, ingredients and nutritional value over your food. And if you know the right meals to prepare, home-cooking can be super quick and simple.

But if you dont know the right ingredients to use and which to avoid, you may run the risk of making your foods more unhealthy than they need to be.

Almost everything we make needs some type of oil or cooking fat, and while many of these can be quite beneficial for our health, there are others that we should all try to avoid. The worst cooking oil you should never use is probably sitting in your pantry right now: canola oil.

Beauty Experts Swear By This Collagen Powder For Younger Looking Skin

Many people believe canola oil is one of the better cooking oils because it is lower in saturated fats than options like butter or olive oil. But this one fact is pretty deceiving. Nothing else about canola oil is good for you.

Canola oil is overly processed, meaning that it has absolutely no nutritional value. Despite the fact that it is made with natural ingredients, all of the nutrients from those ingredients are stripped in the refining process. This is pretty unique to canola oil compared to alternative cooking fats, becuase the seeds that canola is made from must be processed at a much higher temperature than other options.

When trying to pick the right oil to cook with, consider the nutritional value more than the fat content. Cooking with oils that deliver nutrients can help make your meals all the more healthy.

The best alternatives are olive oil and avocado oil," RD Megan Byrd told SheFinds. "Both of these are higher in unsaturated, heart-healthy fats, which make them pantry staples for a healthy diet."

Olive oil is great for salad dressings and homemade sauces. Avocado oil is best for baking and sauteeing because of its mild flavor.

Mickey Mantle once said, If Id known I was going to live this long, I would have taken better care of myself.

The latest research shows that no matter how old or fit you are, it is never too late to start enhancing the quality of your life through a healthful lifestyle. Exercise alone will not do it. You also need to balance your fitness routine with a beneficial diet.

Following are some nutrition and diet tips to help older exercisers and athletes create a winning food plan that is appropriate for every sport, including the sport of living life to its fullest!

Do older athletes require a different diet from younger people who exercise?

Research suggests older athletes have no significantly different nutritional needs other than needing to optimize their sports diets so they will have every possible edge over younger folks. The biggest nutrition concern of older exercisers should be to routinely eat quality calories from nutrient-dense, health-protective foods. Eating the right foods can aid top performance, enhance recovery from hard workouts and reduce the risk of heart disease, cancer osteoporosis and other debilitating diseases of aging.

Are there recommendations for older Americans who are beginning an exercise program simply to lose weight?

Although seniors should be exercising for health and fitness, anyone who wants to lose weight needs to monitor calories. If you exercise, you will not necessarily lose weight. Usually, someone who is out of condition can walk for only about 20 to 30 minutes before tiring. Depending on the walking speed, this will burn between 100 and 200 calories. However, statistics show that people who are out of condition eat calorie-laden snacks after exercising because they feel they deserve them. Depending on the chosen snack and the amount of it the exerciser eats, the treat may add more calories than the exercise burned. Other out-of-condition folks just nap the rest of the day and do not expend anymore calories because they are exhausted. This kind of exercise does not aid in weight loss.

Instead, if you cut out 100 calories from your diet each day, you can lose 10 pounds of weight a year. Taking a long walk each day can use up another 100 calories. So, if you eliminate 100 calories plus spend another 100 calories walking, the total is 200 calories less each day. This combination of calorie-cutting and exercising can result in a 20-pound weight loss over the course of a year. The key is to make little changes that accumulate over time to cause big changes.

Are low-carbohydrate diets recommended for older exercisers?

You need carbohydrates to fuel your muscles with glycogen. If you are on a low-carbohydrate diet, your muscles will be poorly fueled, and workouts will not be enjoyable. It is not carbohydrates that are fattening. It is excess calories that cause you to gain weight. Multi-grain bagels, rye crackers, brown rice and oatmeal are just a few examples of wholesome grain foods that both fuel muscles and protect against cancer, diabetes, and heart disease. Carb-rich bananas, orange juice, yogurt and smoothies are also good choices. Focus your meals on wholesome carbs for exercise energy and overall health. It is also recommended that you should never start a food program that you do not want to maintain for the rest of your life.

Action Bronson continues to earn praise for his remarkable weight loss transformation over the past year. Yesterday, the rapper took to Instagram to show off the latest stage of his progress. In the short clip, Bronson flexes several times for the camera while doing a full 360-degree turn to reveal his slimmed-down physique.

According to a celebratory post Bronson published last week, he now weighs roughly 240 pounds, down about 160 pounds from his peak of nearly 400 at the start of quarantine in March 2020.

"FEELING STRONG. CHIPPING AWAY LITTLE BY LITTLE. NEVER GONNA STOP. GETTING READY FOR MY FIRST CONCERT BACK," Bronson wrote in his signature all-caps style. "CONEY ISLAND AUGUST 21st BE THERE OR BE SQUARE."

Several of Bronson's celebrity followers immediately reacted in the comments, including UFC president Dana White, MMA star Frankie Edgar, bodybuilder Flex Lewis, and strongman Eddie Hall. Perhaps the most enthusiastic response, however, came from one of Bronson's most notable fans, comedian and podcast host Joe Rogan.

"My brother, you look fucking fantastic! Such an inspiration for people to see that incredible things are possible when you dedicate yourself and harness your discipline," Rogan wrote. "Im immensely impressed!"

In an interview with Men's Health earlier this year, Bronson shared some insight into the workout and diet that helped him lose all that weight. His weekly routine includes, among other things, a combination of HIIT routines and lifting heavy weights.

This content is imported from Instagram. You may be able to find the same content in another format, or you may be able to find more information, at their web site.

Diet-wise, Bronson had to give up the famously calorie-dense cheat meals that were his signature on shows like Viceland's F*ck That's Delicious in favor of lean, protein-heavy platters of eggs, chicken, and protein shakes.

Since then, Bronson has also kept active on social media, sharing regular looks at other new workouts he's trying, which have expanded to include banded movements, TRX rows, medicine ball throws, and much more.

There are many reasons why someone can decide to make a total lifestyle change to lose weight, especially when we arent just talking a couple of pounds. This is exactly what Rebel Wilson did in 2020, losing over 65 pounds. The actress worked out and changed her eating habits but lost weight at a steady and healthy pace. Just like Jonah Hill, when Wilson lost all the weight people wondered why, saying she wouldnt book as many roles skinnier. During an Instagram live a curious fan asked the actress why she decided to lose the weight and Wilson decided to share how it all started, revealing she wanted to have a better chance at getting pregnant.

Wilson has been much more active on social media for the past year, sharing photos of her weight loss journey. When she saw the question, instead of ignoring it she responded, That is such a massive question, but Im going to try to answer it for you. She explained that it all started when she was looking into fertility stuff snd the doctor was extremely honest with her, It first started when I was looking into fertility stuff and the doctor was like, Well, youd have a much better chance if you were healthier. At first, she was offended because she believed she was pretty healthy at her current weight, per Page Six.

The comment stuck with her and she realized she wanted to think of her future mini-me. Thats kind of what started it, that if I lost some excess weight that it would give me a better chance for freezing eggs and having the eggs be a better quality, she said. It wasnt even really myself, it was more thinking of a future mini-me, really.

Since losing weight, Wilson is still struggling with her fertility. In May she explained on Instagram she received bad news in the caption and didnt have anyone to share it with. To all the women out there struggling with fertility, I feel ya. The universe works in mysterious ways and sometimes it all doesnt make sense...but I hope theres light about to shine through all the dark clouds Wilson wrote.

Starting the day with a nutritious breakfast allows you to get power through and make better decisions. Skipping it and depriving your body of essential nutrients will leave you feeling lethargic, mess up blood sugar levels and even create brain fog. A nutrient-dense breakfast increases concentration, lowers the chances of developing diabetes, manages cholesterol and keeps you chipper.

Starting your day with a perfect breakfast and with good foods will help you to lose weight easily. Eating healthy food can make it easier to curb cravings and stick to your weight loss goals.

But which food will do the trick?

Here a 5 amazing breakfast food for weight loss:

Egg- Eggs are rich in protein and contain a lot of vitamins and minerals. It can also reduce the appetite when you eat eggs with breakfast to give weight loss a serious boost. Eggs are the perfect option to eat for everyone to lose weight. You can eat eggs with sorted veggies or you can have an omelette.

Oatmeal- For breakfast oatmeal is healthy and delicious to eat. They are low in calories but high in fibre and protein which help you in controlling your weight. Due to the presence of low calories in the oats, it will reduce your craving, slow down digestion and make you feel full for longer. In this, you can also add some kiwis and berries which have high vitamins, nutrients, and potassium.

Greek Yogurt and fruits- Yogurt are creamy and delicious which is good for your weight loss diet. Greek yoghurt contains more protein and half of the carbs than normal yoghurt. For some sweetness, you can also add some raspberries or strawberries. Put slices of bananas over the yoghurt to make it more delicious.

Smoothies- Smoothies contain a lot of nutrients that you can have for your breakfast because they contain fruits and dry fruits which help you in reducing your weight. Also, add some Chia seeds to it. Chia seeds are rich in protein which will slow the emptying of your stomach and reduce the levels of ghrelin. For a hearty dose of resistance starch, you can also add green bananas to your smoothie.

Avocado- Speaking of superfoods for breakfast, avocado toast topped with freshly diced tomatoes, onion, salt and pepper is enough to power you through the day. It increases satiety and decreases your want to snack in between your meals. These good fats can lower cholesterol and reduce the risk of heart disease and even cancer related unhealthy lifestyles.

Kriti Sanon On Gaining & Losing Weight: Its Not A Very Healthy Thing To Do (Photo Credit: Instagram)

Kriti Sanon walked the extra mile to nail her look in the film Mimi. The actress had to put on some extra kilos to play a pregnant woman and gained weight in two and a half months.

She agrees it is not a healthy thing to do but adds that she wanted to take an extra step for the character as she felt that there is something for her in it.

Obviously, its not a very healthy thing to do too often so you have to make sureI wouldnt do this again and again for a characterI told myself I wont do this again but I think when you get a character which gives you so much to do as an actor then you end up giving yourself a lot back, Kriti Sanon told IANS.

Kriti Sanon also added that she was willing to push those boundaries and go all out. She said: I always knew that this is something that has a lot for me in it so I think I was kind of willing to go that extra mile and it made a huge difference on screen. So, that makes all the impact.

Bodily, its not a very healthy thing to do, especially because I have put on weight like in two, two and half months.

The actress revealed her weight gain and loss journey was very natural. I got my time to lose itI did it all very naturallybut yes, as an actor you have to take care of your body and make sure youre not making it go through these changes too often, Kriti said.

Mimi also stars Pankaj Tripathi, Sai Tamhankar, Supriya Pathak and Manoj Pahwa. It is streaming on Jio Cinema and Netflix.

Kriti Sanon Says Its Not Healthy To Suddenly Gain & Lose Weight; Adds I Wont Do This Again But - Koimoi

Q. With the extreme heat this summer Im struggling to keep weight on my horse. Im not used to dealing with summer weight loss. Our pastures are pretty dried out, so we are feeding a good amount of hay. Typically, I just feed a balancer, but this doesnt seem to be enough. Do you have any advice?

A. We often think of weight loss in horses as a winter issue, when they need more calories to keep warm. However, we dont often consider that horses also require calories keep cool in hot weather.

Thermal neutral zone (TNZ) is the range of environmental temperatures horses need for minimal metabolic regulation to maintain their internal temperature. When horses are within their TNZ, the basal rate of heat production equals the loss of heat to the environment. They neither heat up nor cool down.

If the ambient temperature drops below the thermal neutral zone, horses reach their lower critical temperature (LCT), which requires an increase in metabolic rate to generate the heat necessary to maintain body temperature as heat is lost to the environment. Conversely, when temperatures reach above the TNZ, the body uses evaporative cooling to lower its temperature. If, however, temperatures rise too far above the upper critical temperature (UTC) and heat gained from the environment is greater than can be lost, hyperthermia can occur.

Experts believe horses TNZ ranges from about 5 degrees Celsius/40 degrees Fahrenheit on the lower end (LCT) to about 25 degrees Celsius/77 degrees Fahrenheit on the upper end (LCT). The National Research Councils Nutrient Requirements for Horses estimates that in cold weather the horses digestible energy (DE) requirements increase by about 2.5% for each degree Celsius below -10 degrees Celsius (or 14 degrees Fahrenheit). However, theres little data about the impact on DE requirement when temperature exceeds the UCT.

Even if the increase in digestible energy required was as little as 0.5% for increase in degrees Celsius above the UCT, this would result in a need for 5% more digestible energy if the ambient temperature increased from 25 degrees Celsius to 35 degrees Celsius. It therefore becomes clearer as to why a horse might lose weight in hot weather if the dietary digestible energy intake remains the same.

Coping with high temperatures above the UCT is most difficult initially, as it takes horses two to three weeks to acclimate. Once theyve acclimated, their metabolism returns to near temperate metabolism. Not only will high temperatures increase DE demands but they also tend to reduce feed intake. So just when your horse needs to consume more calories, his desire to do so might decline.

The challenge, therefore, becomes getting more calories into the heat-challenged horse, especially one who might have a reduced appetite. While my first go-to when dealing with weight loss is generally to feed more forage, that might not be the solution here. Remember that fermenting forage generates body heat. This is welcome in the winter but not great for the horse already dealing with heat stress. Feeding horses in hot climates typically means keeping forage intake on the lower end of desired levels and relying instead on more energy-dense concentrates. In particular, high-fat concentrates are beneficial because fat reduces heat load.

If youre already feeding a balancer in combination with forage, and all mineral and vitamin needs are being met, adding oil to the diet would be the easiest and least taxing way to increase DE. You can gradually build up to a maximum of 2 cups of oil a day if needed for an average-sized horse. The alternative is replacing the balancer with a high-fat performance feed, although this might require more total feed intake for the same result. Be sure to follow the feeding instructions to ensure youre feeding enough to meet your horses mineral and vitamin requirements.

Avoid feeding excess protein, as it might have an adverse effect on body heat production. For this reason, equine nutritionists dont advise feeding large amounts of alfalfa in the summer to horses that struggle to maintain weight. The metabolic demands of breaking down excess protein might result in greater calorie loss, and the horse will need to consume more water to excrete the excess nitrogen. Horses in hot climates might already struggle to drink enough water to meet their needs and replace fluid lost in sweat. Horses not consuming enough water will have reduced total feed intake, so keeping your horse hydrated should be a key part of your weight management plan.
