How to Lose Weight Naturally

Assalammualaikum...


Actually aku tak tahu macam mana nak kurus secara mendadak.  Tapi terus terang, aku tak suka makan sebarang bentuk ubat untuk kuruskan badan.  Biarlah iklan ko tampal kat tepi highway pun, kat tepi jalan pun, hatta kat dahi sekalipun, aku tetap tak kan makan sebab aku percaya masih ada cara yang semulajadi untuk menguruskan badan tanpa mengeluarkan kos yang tinggi.  Bentuk badan aku sekarang bukan lar tergolong dari kalangan kurus kering macam zombie.  Orang kata yang sedang-sedang aja!  Pun begitu, bentuk badan aku masih lagi kekal dari zaman anak dara hingga ke zaman anak dah tiga.  Ini bermaksud tidak ada pengembangan molekul di mana-mana tempat kat badan aku ni sehingga kan ko jalan kat sebelah kawan ko sendiri pun tidak kenal.


" Woi, gumoknya ko!  Dulu masa sekolah, kurus jer! "

Orang macam ni lar kita tak suka jumpa kan?  Sebab kita terasa macam ringan jer nak kasi penampor buaya 44 kali kat muka dia.


" Eh, apsal aku nampak ko ni macam kurus jer?  Ko diet ker?  Ko makan apa hah?  Share lar rahsia ko kat aku..."

Orang macam ni lar buatkan kita terasa di awang-awangan bila dipuji melangit.  Kembangnya lubang hidung kita terasa seperti boleh muat ngam-ngam satu pasu kecik.


Pun begitu, itu semua adalah persepsi orang terhadap kita.  Tak perlu lar kita ambil berat sangat dengan kata-kata mereka.  Apa yang penting, kita amalkan gaya hidup yang sihat dan pemakanan yang sihat.  Tak perlu lar ambil ubat kurus secara mendadak yang kita tidak tahu kesan efeknya akan datang.

Aku sentiasa bersyukur sebab bentuk badan aku tidak lar gemuk dan tidak lar terlalu kurus.  Aku juga tidak lar terlalu tinggi dan tidak terlalu rendah.  Aku selalu cakap kat my laki yang aku tak suka pakai high heels sebab ianya akan menjadikan aku dari jauh seperti Next Top Model.  My laki, you know what, akan ketawa terbahak-bahak sampai terkeluar kahak bila mendengarkan bini dia masuk bakul angkat sendiri.  Yelar, siapa lagi nak puji kita kalo tak diri sendiri kan?  So, just be a positive and confident itu mesti ada!

Don't be surprised.  Although it is a fat, coconut oil can actually help lose your belly fat!  I'll tell you how.  This oil extracted from coconut has a unique combination of fatty acids.  It has a positive effect on your metabolism too.  Coconut oil is high on medium chain triglycerides.  The medium chain fatty acids are metabolized differently from long chain fatty acids.  These fatty acids directly fo to the liver from your digestive tract, where they are used in one of the two ways - either as energy or are converted into ketone bodies.  Ketone bodies are three water - soluble biochemical compounds that are produced by the liver using fatty acids when you fast or reduce your food intake.  These are used by body cells as energy instead of glucose.  So when you want to follow low carb diet to lose fat, coconut oil can help you a lot.

Coconut oil is also a thermogenic and burns fat.  Many studies have shown that medium chain fatty acids when compared to the similar amount of calories from other fats, can improve feeling of fullness.  Thus you automatically reduce calorie intake.

A study has shown positive results about coconut oil in reducing abdominal fat.  In this study, some women were given 2 tablespoons of coconut oil and some other women were given 2 tablespoons of soybean oil for 28 days.  Both the groups lost about 2 pounds but the group taking coconut oil also reduced their waist circumference while those on soybean oil had a mild increase in belly fat.  The coconut oil group also increased HDL (good) cholesterol levels.  However, mindlessly having coconut oil may in fact increase your weight, after all it is a fat.  So, keep the following tips in mind when using coconut oil to lose belly fat.

Tips to use coconut oil
