Eating late may seem paradoxical but that is indeed the truth
And this is the misunderstanding held by many people during dieting and their efforts to lose weight
Hi everyone it's Em My
This video is about a very popular topic: weight loss
Sharing with you Em My belongs to the type of people who are very prone to
changing their numbers for example during periods when new products are launched
Eating poorly slightly neglecting self-care lately like now
Here's Em My by Heavy Skin's brand-new product
Has everyone tried it yet
Just like before Em My will gain a little weight
But then it's quite easy to regain the previous weight
Yet some people often tell Em My that losing weight is actually very difficult
Even after applying this method for some time the other method
shows no visible change in weight despite the declared determination
It might even rise compared to earlier periods
So what's the real reason
Today in this video Em My and Heavy Skin will
uncover the mystery behind the question with you
Why can't you lose weight no matter what

This is the first principle of weight control yet it 's
often overlooked Fundamentally it works like this
For an adult woman we need between 1 600 and 2 400 calories each day
Men will need more than 2 000 to 3 000 calories
And if the calories consumed—specifically lean calories—exceed the calories expended then
we gain weight conversely if calories consumed are less than calories expended we lose weight
And if the calories in equal the calories out we maintain our current
weight The issue is that many people believe we only need to exercise
It would reduce fat
but that's not accurate
because exercise only burns calories
If the energy we consume were to compensate for those hours
of exercise it would exceed the energy we actually burn
We can only gain muscle not lose it—meaning you'
ll become stronger and more solid but also larger
With plenty of meat muscle and even fat
then logically to lose weight we must ensure
The incoming calor intake will be less than the outgoing calor output
There are two ways to achieve this
The first is to reduce food portions
According to numerous studies if we reduce our daily calorie intake
by about 500 we can lose approximately 0.45 kilograms per week
And to help you visualize it it's
like cutting out about one high-quality bread roll from your daily intake
After one week you'll have lost half a kilo guys
And the second method is maintaining controlled eating habits
We increase physical activity to burn more energy
—whether it's physical labor or mental exertion
But remember it must be accompanied by controlled eating
However the daily calorie requirement varies from person to person
What Emmy mentioned above is merely general in nature in
reality each individual case depends on numerous factors
Emmy will provide a few examples for your reference
For adult women who are not engaging in excessive physical activity
Daily caloric intake is about 2 000 calories
reducing it brings it down to around 1 500 calories
If you're very active and walk more than 5kg per day you'll need to
increase your intake to 2 200 calories or more to maintain your weight
If you want to lose weight you can reduce your intake
to 1 700 calories Women over 50 don't need as much energy
Around 1 700 is sufficient to maintain a
firm bite reducing it would leave about 1 300
Health Slides magazine has a very detailed article on this
topic Emmy has included a link below for your reference
This is the most common reason why
people trying to lose weight fail without
proper medical supervision In short there 's
no such thing as a miracle solution
Eating a lot while being physically active doesn't
make you sick unless there's an underlying health issue
Let's see if these foods appear in your daily meals
White rice white bread vermicelli pho noodles offal fatty pork belly dried fruits fried potatoes snacks instant noodles canned goods smoked river mea
If these foods appear too frequently in your daily
diet reconsider as they're not only bad for your health
They accelerate aging from the inside out
and also cause rapid uncontrolled weight gain
Especially refined white starches should be limited
particularly in the morning when we've just woken up
Right now the body is thirsty so
it will absorb fluids as quickly
as possible making weight gain
effortless Instead we can switch to
For example a cup with little sugar
Then a handful of granola
Along with some yogurt
Or just a small salad and fruit
Within just 1 to 2 weeks you'll
notice a significant difference
Metabolism is the process of converting food into energy
And nutrients reach their intended destinations
Typically when this process works properly
our bodies remain healthy
with less fat accumulation because excess energy isn't stored as usual
The body's ability to convert energy largely depends on genetics
which is why some people can eat
constantly without gaining weight
Not gaining weight
yet some people feel
bloated just from breathing in the air
We can also boost our metabolism by
Improving our lifestyle to be
healthier and more positive for
example by overcoming setbacks and eating in a balanced way
Healthy silent regular exercise
Will also accelerate
The body's energy metabolism process
And if you already have a very positive
lifestyle eat healthily and strictly
control your diet yet still struggle
with obesity it's best to consult a doctor
Because this could be a health issue
Number 4 highly unexpected
Now we move on to the Farmer's Corner segment
To explain why absorbing large amounts of harmful chemicals—
such as pesticides found in certain medications—can be dangerous
The first mechanism is that
these chemicals are fat-
soluble so when they come
into contact with the body
The body then creates fat tissues similar to storage
compartments to hold chemicals
it cannot process or eliminate
Moreover when toxic substances
adhere to the cell membrane they
cause the cells to continuously release a hormone called leptin
This hormone signals the brain
that it's time to burn fat for energy
However if too much leptin hormone is produced
The leptin receptor will experience
dysfunctional activity and furthermore
toxins are released into the bloodstream
including chemicals known as cytokines
Damaging leptin receptors in the brain
And once leptin receptors are impaired
Once damaged fat burning resistance naturally occurs
That gives us one more reason
to seek out high-quality
food sources and reduce our intake of canned goods
Obesity as a side effect of
treatment medications is no longer
unfamiliar to us for example antidepressants and anti-anxiety drugs
Or painkillers which can cause obesity
by stimulating appetite or lead
to fluid retention other types of
medication may also have similar effects
For example migraine medication
Or adverse side effects
Can cause obesity by slowing down the body's metabolic processes
If you experience this condition after a period of
treatment you should discuss it directly with your doctors
For example switching medications—trying to recover as
quickly as possible so as to
no longer need medication at all
Eating late may seem paradoxical
but that's exactly the
truth and this is a misconception held by many people
During dieting and trying to lose weight
we often think we need to reduce our
intake to a minimum and it's true that
cutting down on food portions helps
Then we'd also lose weight but in a way that promotes the skin effect—becoming
thin yet still retaining fat The first
reason is when the body becomes exhausted
It slows down
metabolism meaning we can
eat very little yet
still gain more fat
Monday again
That's during the phase when survival is essential
When the body is exhausted
The body will naturally shift toward burning muscle
Instead of burning fat
the skin effect is unavoidable
Recently I realized we should focus on
It's not just about weight loss
And it also has to involve fat
reduction—because if someone is
thin but still has soft
flabby fat they still won’t look good
A video clip that's too long and too intense
Congratulations you've just gotten through the toughest part
of this video clip
As for the latter part Emie will share with you
a few tips she always applies
to effectively achieve weight loss
The first tip is to set a
clear as detailed as possible
yet achievable goal—don't
stray too far from reality
For example a week
We reduce intake from half a kilogram to one kilogram
This is reasonable and not overly strict
For the body
And if you're looking to lose weight
quickly that also means we'll have to accep
Our bodies may feel more fatigued than usual
and even our skin may appear duller than normal
A practical example is that after
testing Emie usually wants to lose
2 kilograms and reduce her waist
by 2 centimeters within one month
This makes perfect sense because
if that's the case Emie would
lose about half a kilogram each
week and as for her waistline—
Based on my personal experience when
we lose about 1 kilogram our waist
naturally shrinks by 1 centimeter so
there's really nothing surprising about it
Don't worry too much about whether
your waist will actually shrink by 2 cm when you lose 2 kg—what matters
is having a healthy sustainable plan
Lose about 500k per month each day and increase
workout frequency definitely
see results after one week
We could lose half a kilo
If we wanted
our waist to tighten further
We'd need to reduce it by 3cm or 4cm
Then for the solution there will
need to be more focused exercises
targeting the waist and even
learning a few specific moves
For example model Thanh Hang often shares her experience
using a belly band and Emie
also notices a noticeable effect
Putting up a fight is like setting
a sand timer in the middle slightly
uncomfortable Emie's second tip—something
she absolutely loves about French culture
That's exactly intermittent fasting
In reality intermittent fasting
can be done on a daily basis meaning fasting for about 1 to 3 days
followed by a period of eating
But Emie wouldn't like that approach
—she'd usually stick to a longer
fasting window meaning we'd skip eating for a set number of hours
From 10 to 16 hours and
for the remaining hours we
can eat normally not
indulgently but simply as usual
The mechanism of intermittent
fasting is that when we skip
meals for an extended period the
body naturally signals an alert
It will have to use stored fat
to burn
and produce energy
to sustain the body
That's why it helps with weight loss
And even fat reduction
For Emie she usually follows a
Eating window of 14-10
Meaning a 14-hour fast
And eat within the remaining
10 hours if you find that
too difficult you can start
with the 12-12 method instead
Done then down to 14-10
And finally the toughest
But also the most effective
Most notably it's the
16-8 method—intermittent fasting
the regimen Emie follows daily but it's not just that
Usually Emie combines
intermittent fasting with another
eating plan—low carb specifically the paleo diet
This is a dietary approach that
includes a daily intake of carbohydrates
ranging from 20% to 30% with a
focus on consuming plenty of fruits
Just like with greens instead of
Emie simply eliminating vegetables
and fruits she reduced carbs to
below 20% continuing in that manner
Honestly if you have the means everyone should train with a personal
trainer or find an extremely motivated workout partner
Emie herself is also very disciplined
But if it weren't for PT to be honest Emie couldn't possibly maintain her current
consistent workout routine
Because our daily lives And sometimes just
the night before we only needed to sleep in late
Just a little bit of fatigue will
show up the next morning
and then we'll be busy for just a short while—we'll find plenty of excuses
You can't expect to achieve anything without
putting in at least one daily workout session Everything has its price
folks Here's a piece of advice from Emie:
That's why you should find a sport
you truly enjoy since everyone has different preferences if
you don't like going to the gym
You don't have to join a gym just because someone else does or if
you don't like yoga you don't have to sign up for a yoga class
Aerobics dancing or anything else you
enjoy — of course the results may vary
But just moving around is better than nothing
It's been a while since I last died
Helps keep the day from feeling too stiflingly restricted
As long as we don’t die every single day that’s fine
And the final message Emie wants to share with you
Is that of course we love your body
Always cherish and believe
in yourself but remember that
we can always beautiful and even more beautiful still
Wishing you a
delicious Tết and
a healthy balance—bye for now
