According to your height your ideal body weight should be approximately 67 kg, so considering that, you are almost 20 kg overweight. Your BMI (body mass index) is 29.2 which means you are on the borderline of obesity.
A slight increase in your weight can increase your BMI to 30 or more and you will fall in the category of obese. Obesity or excess adiposity is a root cause for many life threatening diseases. You are still young, if you lose your weight and maintain an ideal body weight you will not only look more beautiful but the risk of other diseases will also decrease considerably.
The following tips mentioned below will help you lose weight -
- Make an ideal goal and try to lose weight at a gradual pace with the help of diet and exercise. Even a decrease of ½ kg per week will make you slim in a year (according to ½ kg weight loss per week you can lose 2 kg per month and 24 kg per year).
- Avoid long periods of starvation especially before your main meals or evening snack time. This is the time where you normally tend to eat all the fried or junk foods and snacks. If you are hungry for a long period before this time you will definitely binge on these foods and gain more weight.
- Lose weight in a healthy way by including healthy foods in your diet. Your diet should comprise of unprocessed cereals, grains and its products and fresh fruits and vegetables. These foods not only have negligible fats but are also high in other nutrients and fiber which keep your body healthy and promote weight loss.
- Before starting your meals eat a bowl of vegetable salad without any fatty dressing like mayonnaise. Fresh vegetables will satisfy your hunger to some extent and you will tend to binge less on other foods.
- For proteins include egg yolks, fat free dairy products, fish, de skinned poultry and meat in moderation. Avoid other protein sources that are high in saturated fats and cholesterol like shell fish, organ meats, pork, meat and egg yolk.
- Keep yourself well hydrated. Many times your body sends you the signal of hunger but you are actually thirsty.
If you feel hungry at wrong time or immediately after your meals or eating snacks then drink water, probably you are thirsty and not hungry. - Avoid other foods completely that are high in fat like fried foods, junk foods like cheese pizzas, cheese burgers, cakes, pastries, cookies, wafers, chips, carbonated beverages, colas and sodas. These foods add extra unnecessary calories to your diet and make you fat.
- Increase your physical activity and avoid a sedentary lifestyle. Indulge in sports or other activities you love, like swimming, cycling, jogging, skipping, and playing table tennis or brisk walking.
