At one time in our lives, we all struggle with weight gain. Particularly with a busy 8-5 sometimes 7 kinds of office job.
Most hours are spent either, stuck in traffic during rush hour, or at the desk with a piles of work, or out rushing for an evening class you have been going in late for weeks now or in bed obsessing over all the sleep you will get six weeks from now when you get your leave finalized.
The gym is not an option. I mean how? There is just no time. Little do we know that 70% of our weight encompasses what we eat. Exercise plays just a role in like toning and getting everything super tight and tone.
That said, listen up because I am here to redeem you off of the weary stress due to that extra kilo you can’t seem to shake off and those tiny folds around your back that are starting to form. Time to hack out the desk weight.
Here’s how:
1. Change your diet
See that kibanda that sells you some yummy chapatis and matumbo. Ditch that. It’s easier said than done because they are bonding times with colleagues but think about it. Two chapos every day equals ten chapos every week and that’s minus the ones you might have during dinner.
Also, consider the fact that you might also have ugali or rice during dinner. Which leaves you with so many calories with so little energy output.
Results? Folds, lots and lots of pesky little folds and bulges in all the wrong areas. Especially in places where people have to touch when hugging you. So what now? Interchange each with something light and healthy. A fruit salad maybe and home-cooked veggies? Try meal-prepping a selection of vegetables like broccoli, cauliflower, cabbage, sukuma wiki, and spinach.
Stir-fries likewise do so well with chicken breast and or just plain veggies. YouTube has a tone of easy homemade recipes that one can incorporate instead of the usual at the kibanda or cafeteria.
Plus, time your feeding so that you are not all over the place hence allowing for cravings to kick in.
Getting this diet thing right will help you solve 80% of the problem.
2. Walk
Walk, walk and walk some more. Steal fifteen minutes from your usual take-off time and get a brisk walk in.
Walk to the next one stage, after a week does to the next two, go back to one and then try to do more.
Be consistent and disciplined. Carry your earphones and a water bottle and boom, you are sorted. That’s how to say farewell to thick calves and cellulite.
That’s it, simple and clear.
