You may think this is possible based on all the success stories you see on the internet, but in reality, those are just outliers.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>According to the coach, the truth is that expecting to lose 10 kilos in three months is like thinking that in a class of 50 kids, all the kids can get more than 90 percent. He added, \u201cIn reality, only about 10 percent of people, if that, are able to lose that kind of weight because it requires a lot of effort, discipline, and compromises. Most people don&#8217;t even get there.\u201d<\/p>\n<p> The correct approach<\/p>\n<p>The fitness coach pointed out that if someone does manage to lose 10 kilos in about three to four months, here&#8217;s what happens next: \u201cIn the next six to seven months, you are going to gain about six to eight kilos back. This happens over and over again. There is so much research that proves this.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Moreover, the cycle will keep repeating itself, and by the end of the year, you will have spent 12 months losing only 2 to 3 kilos, which is not effective.<\/p>\n<p>According to the coach, here&#8217;s what happens if you take the slow route. He explained, \u201cLet&#8217;s say you just try to lose one kilo every month. What happens? Firstly, most people are capable of putting in the effort to lose one kilo a month. It is not too hard; it&#8217;s easy. It&#8217;s slow, but it&#8217;s easy.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>He added, \u201c So, in six months, you lose six kilos, and then let&#8217;s say for the next three months, you don&#8217;t lose any weight. Your body weight has been stuck, and then for the last two to three months, you&#8217;ve lost maybe one or two kilos. What happens? In 12 months, you&#8217;ve actually lost about seven to eight kilos, which is so much more than the fast approach.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>According to the coach, this method of weight loss is effective in the long term, as it yields lasting results. \u201cYou want to stay in shape, manage your weight, and take control. For that, you need to bring things under your control, you need to slow down: your expectations, efforts, and emotions. The fastest way to lose weight is to do it slowly.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Note to readers: This article is for informational purposes only and not a substitute for professional medical advice.
