Slimming on the thighs

As mentioned above, it is not possible to target specific fat reserves. The prerequisite for losing weight is an energy deficit that can be achieved through diet and expanded through physical activity. A balanced diet should be followed, which includes above all proteins, healthy fats, fiber, vitamins and trace elements.

Carbohydrates provide fast energy, but should be reduced in favor of the other macronutrients. During training, in addition to endurance training, which particularly strengthens the health of the cardiovascular system, special attention should be paid to strength training. Women also benefit from training with weights or exercise equipment: it prevents the loss of muscle mass in the dietary phase, which burns a considerable amount of energy even when resting.

Especially the training of the large muscle groups such as the leg muscles, pom muscles and back can support a change in diet. Leg training with reduced calorie intake reduces fat reserves and also forms strong, slim muscles. It is not possible to lose weight specifically on the thighs, this can only be achieved by changing one’s lifestyle.

With a diet to the bikini figure

Many people dream of presenting a beautiful slim body in summer and to feel comfortable in tight swimwear. In today’s society, an ideal of beauty has established itself that is very different from the reality and the average German woman. Overweight is thus not only a health problem, but is often stigmatized in society.Especially women make many unsuccessful attempts to lower their body weight in order to achieve the ideal level. However, crash diets are not only very extreme and rarely achieve a permanent weight loss, they can even be dangerous to health. If you want to shape a healthy, efficient and normal weight body, you should rely on a balanced diet in combination with sufficient exercise in everyday life and sports activities.

Different diets

The so-called formula diet, in which the daily meals are mixed with water in powder form and taken as shakes, soups or drinks, is very popular due to its simple application. The products, which are taken in the context of a formula or powder diet, are subject to §14 of the German diet regulation in their composition and may contain a maximum calorie content of 400 kcal/meal. In addition, protein, fat and carbohydrate content are regulated.

The products must also contain vitamins, calcium and iron. The composition of the diet powders is based on standards set by the German Society for Nutrition. The daily energy content of the meals is about 1200 kcal/day for most diets.

Many manufacturers promise rapid weight loss with their concepts. A major point of criticism, however, is that the meals are mostly in liquid form or as porridge. At this point our article could also be of interest to you: Lose weight with NISYThe weight loss market is full of promising products that are intended to support and help you lose weight.

These range from simple vitamin preparations and “superfood” to pharmacologically effective drugs that are dangerously misused to lose weight. Desperate overweight people resort to highly potent drugs such as laxatives or diuretics to reduce their weight. However, these substances not only fail to have the desired effect; if used improperly, they can even become life-threatening.

One should therefore especially avoid prescription drugs. Also the Diätpillen, which are sold in drugstores, could not convince in any scientific study. With a balanced, healthy diet, the intake of dietary supplements is also superfluous if one pays attention to the supply of all vital nutrients.

These include proteins, healthy fat, complete carbohydrates, fiber, vitamins and trace elements. Those who want to lose weight in a healthy way can achieve this through healthy nutrition and exercise and do not have to spend money on diet pills and other “miracle cures”. After prolonged consumption, users no longer feel the satiation they would have felt if they had chewed solid food.

In addition, following a powder diet is not always associated with a permanent change in diet, so that after stopping the diet, weight gain can resume and the well-known yo-yo effect can occur. Furthermore, products in powder form usually contain little or no dietary fiber. Therefore, prolonged intake can cause digestive problems or even persistent constipation.

Most diet powders, as well as the powders used in the Yokebe diet, are now also available in lactose-free versions, which also allow for use in cases of lactose intolerance. The Yokebe diet is also based on the intake of shakes mixed from a diet powder. A four-phase diet plan over ten weeks is first drawn up.

This consists of a concentration phase, learning phase, consolidation phase and continuity phase. During this phase, the proportion of drinks in the daily diet is gradually reduced, while in return the preparation of healthy food and nutritional concepts are learned. While in the concentration phase all meals are replaced by the Yokebe diet shakes with a calorie content of 300 kcal/meal, in the continuity phase they are only used when necessary.

The proportion of healthy, self-prepared meals and the adoption of healthy behaviors such as regular physical activity become increasingly important in the individual phases. The advantage of the Yokebe diet is that, as with all Formula diets, rapid weight loss occurs. This can be easily maintained by learning health-promoting behaviors even after discontinuing the powders.

However, the high cost of the powders proves to be a disadvantage, which makes the overall concept quite expensive. Almased© is a diet drink. The powder consists of over 50% protein and is taken in a fixed schedule to help people lose weight.It is available in pharmacies and drugstores, but there are also numerous alternatives from other manufacturers.

In the diet plan Almased© is mixed with water or milk and vegetable oil is added to cover the need for essential fatty acids. Almased© is used in the Markert diet. At the beginning of the diet, all three main meals are replaced by the diet drink, and vegetable broth is also provided.

In the further course of the diet, only individual meals are replaced by Almased©, and balanced, healthy meals are allowed. The diet drink contains between 200 and 400 calories, which significantly reduces the calorie intake of those who want to lose weight and leads to weight loss. Apart from a diet rich in roughage and low in fat, the Fatburner diet relies on the intake of certain foods or preparations, whose so-called “slimming enzymes” are supposed to support slimming.

To the allegedly effective Fatburnern belong exotic fruits, algae or vital materials in the form of tablets, drops or globules. The decisive success of the diet is, however, due to the calorie-reduced diet, which is very balanced. The permitted foods include whole grain products, vegetables, fruit, legumes and potatoes, as well as a few portions of eggs, meat, fish and cheese.

Foods with a low glycemic index such as white flour products, sweets and alcohol should be avoided. If the person willing to lose weight eats these foods with a calorie deficit, he or she will be successful on the scales. Since it is a balanced diet, it can be maintained over a longer period of time.

Whether and to what extent the partial expensively sold Fatburner preparations support the acceptance meaningfully, could not be found out so far yet scientifically. With the ketogenic diet is set on an increased supply of fats and proteins, carbohydrates are deleted. The aim is to put the body in the state of ketosis: The body does not draw its energy from the carbohydrates and sugars taken in with food, but from the fats that are converted into ketone bodies by the body.

The proportion of fats in the diet should be over 60% and the protein intake should be around 35%, so the diet consists of meat, fatty fish, dairy products, eggs, oils and nuts. Those who are in a calorie deficit due to their diet force the body to reduce fat reserves. Also with the ketogenic diet there is a significant weight loss at the beginning due to the loss of water.

The success in the further course depends on the achieved calorie deficit. The loss of muscle mass should be slowed down by the supply of proteins, but it is even better to counteract this with strength training. The ketogenic diet is a one-sided diet that may not cover all essential nutrients.

For this reason, the diet should be discussed in advance with your family doctor, who should also inform you about the health risks. The diet according to Robert Atkin is a classic variant of the low-carb diet, which is intended to lead to weight loss for the user through a high protein and fat intake, but minimal to no carbohydrates. The diet thus consists mainly of meat, fish, cheese and eggs.

Bread, rice or noodles, sweets, alcohol, fruit and carbohydrate-rich vegetables, on the other hand, are not intended. The aim of the diet is to achieve a calorie deficit and thus force the body to go to fat reserves and use them up. The high intake of protein is intended to prevent muscle loss.

During the first week, users will notice a significant loss of weight on the scales. This is water, which is removed from the body with the loss of glycogen stores from the liver and muscles. Since proteins and fats are generally very satisfying, an appropriate diet can also result in weight loss later in life, provided one eats a calorie deficit.

The diet is very monotonous and rigid, which can cause ravenous appetite in some participants. In addition, a supply of all essential nutrients such as vitamins, fiber and trace elements is hardly possible in a one-sided diet. The Atkins diet can therefore be very successful over a shorter period of time in healthy individuals, but is hardly suitable as a long-term diet without strict monitoring of the nutrients.

The potato and egg diet serves mainly to reduce the protein component in the diet and is used in the treatment of liver and kidney failure.The reduced protein intake helps to minimize the side effects of these diseases or prevent their progression. Since it has been observed that the potato and egg diet also causes weight loss, it is occasionally followed by users who want to lose weight. The daily menu includes jacket potatoes, boiled eggs and steamed vegetables or fruit.

The duration of the diet is about seven days. However, if food intake is restricted to potatoes, eggs and vegetables for a longer period of time, a sufficient supply of the organism with calcium, iron and unsaturated fatty acids cannot be guaranteed. In addition, after a change in diet, weight gain will occur again.

The potato and egg diet therefore plays a rather minor role in reducing body weight. This form of diet is only recommended for people with a BMI of over 30. With these formula diets, only shakes with a legal composition are drunk under the supervision of advice centres.

Thus, there is no need to be afraid of malnutrition. The advantage of this diet is that it is not unhealthy and leads to malnutrition like other protein diets and that the success of the diet is quickly achieved, thus increasing motivation. After this program, however, you have to change to a very healthy diet to avoid the yo-yo effect.

Also the program is very expensive with over 100 Euro per month. More about the Formula- DietThe program originated in the year 1960 in America and consists of the principle to be allowed to eat everything. Only in moderation, for which you receive points for each food you are allowed to put together yourself.

The advantage of this diet is that the feeling of having to give up is relatively low and that no major change is necessary. Adheres the program participant to the rules and eats balanced and remains in the selected meal point number can be a lasting success. The drawback is that not all program participants choose their food intake wisely, which can lead to vitamin and mineral deficiencies.

Also the fees become quite expensive with long participation. Overall, the program is a good way to lose weight in the long run. With the Low-Fat diets, fatty food is avoided.

The advantage of this diet is the small change, only very fatty food like some cheeses, avocados and nuts have to be avoided. Also hardly any malnutrition threatens here, since all other foods are allowed. The disadvantage of this diet is that in the long run a lack of fat-soluble vitamins (vitamin E,D,K,A) can occur.

Also one does not lose weight, if only fatty food is deleted from the menu and replaced by many carbohydrates. More on the subject of low-fat dietsIt is also called a metabolic cure. The hCG diet is a radical change in diet, which is supported by numerous products in the form of tablets, globules, drops and other preparations.

The dietary phase of the metabolic cure lasts 21 days, during which extremely low-calorie food is eaten. Carbohydrates are almost completely eliminated from the diet. The success of the diet is mainly based on the loss of water and an energy deficit of 1000 or more calories with an energy intake of only 500 to 800 calories per day.

The metabolic cure is therefore a radical diet that involves numerous health risks. The effectiveness of the expensive “vital substances”, which are supposed to reduce the side effects and supply the body sufficiently with all essential nutrients, could not be sufficiently proven in any scientific study so far. Nevertheless, the hCG diet is one of the classics among crash diets and has numerous followers.

In the original concept, the pregnancy hormone hCG was injected into those willing to lose weight, which is no longer practiced today. This diet was invented at the beginning of the 20th century and is based on the belief that carbohydrates and fats cannot be digested at the same time and must therefore be eaten separately. However, this theory has long since been disproved.

The body can digest proteins, carbohydrates and fats simultaneously. The advantage of this diet is that all foods can be eaten and can lead to weight loss if you follow the rule of eating less fat and doing more exercise. Disadvantage: Nowadays many foods contain carbohydrates and fats and therefore cannot be separated easily.

Also, this diet does not bring much benefit without exercise. More about the separation dietThe zero diet, as the name suggests, does not include solid foods. The only advantage of this diet is that you do not have to prepare anything at all and it is free.However, this diet is strongly discouraged.

With the zero diet, muscle is broken down before the fat reserves are used up. There is also the threat of deficiencies, cardiovascular problems, lack of concentration and the yo-yo effect. This diet is not recommended.

The protein diet is now one of the most well-known diets. During this diet, as few carbohydrates as possible are consumed. The diet includes a lot of meat, soy products, fish and protein shakes.

The advantage of this diet is that in the beginning you can see a result quite quickly, because the number of calories consumed is too low and therefore the body loses weight. The big and worrying disadvantage is that the high protein intake can damage the kidneys and the lack of potassium can also cause problems. The low proportion of vegetables and fruit also threatens to cause a lack of vitamins.

The yo-yo effect is also particularly strong here. This diet makes the body feel hungry and therefore the weight is put on very quickly after the diet. Therefore this diet is not recommended.

Studies show that vegetarians are usually slimmer than non-vegetarians and help the environment with their eating habits. Whether the slimness of the vegetarians has to do so much with their eating behavior, is however not safe. Often vegetarians are more sporty and generally eat more consciously.

Usually, giving up meat and switching to vegetables and fruit can quickly help to lose weight, but care must also be taken not to replace meat with chocolate and other sweets, but to include plenty of fresh vegetables and fruit in the diet. This is not a bad diet in itself, but one must pay attention to the vitamin B12 level and, if you consume few vegetables, also to the iron level. The best known is probably the cabbage soup diet.

Here, only cabbage soup is eaten day in day out. The clear advantage is that this is a cheap and easy to organize diet. The disadvantage of cabbage soup is the monotonous diet, which often leads to a break in the diet and then also the vitamin and mineral deficiency that can occur in the long run. The high consumption of cabbage can also lead to unpleasant and painful flatulence. This diet is only recommended for short term use, but not for a longer lasting diet.
