"I have to be a good role model for my children." Yang Ni determined to lose weight, began to consult a variety of weight loss knowledge. On the short video platform, she carefully selected certified doctors and registered dietitians and scanned their popular science videos.
'To lose weight, you have to make sure you burn more calories than you eat a day,' says Copledo. Yang Ni said that she estimated the calories of each meal, breakfast with eggs and vegetables, lunch she replaced white rice with brown rice or sweet potatoes,
pumpkin and other whole grains, and eat some vegetables and meat, after 4 p.m. In exercise, she does not relax, exercise for 2 hours a day, at least 12,000 steps, and insist on doing aerobic exercise for 1 hour at home at night.
After 2 months of persistence, Yang Ni slimmed down to 60 kilograms and regained the confidence she lost in front of her child. "After getting fat, climbing the stairs are panting, and the body always feels uncomfortable."
After the change of life style, the whole person suddenly has the spirit. I still get called up at night, but I can fall asleep quickly after I finish my work. Yang Ni said.
"Now I look good in my clothes and like taking pictures when I go out." Yang Ni took out her mobile phone to let the reporter see the photo of her and her daughter, the photo of the mother and daughter laughing and blooming.
Yang's goal is to get back to her previous weight of 55 kilograms. "Exercise makes the body stronger. I will stick to it." Yang Ni is full of confidence, after reaching her target weight, she does not intend to stop here, but to keep herself in a healthy state of vitality.
A contest to start a new life
40-year-old Yang Lei is 164cm tall and weighs 55kg. She is a well-proportioned figure. In the past, she did not worry about weight management. But a competition this year made her feel that a healthy weight is not just a standard weight, it also means a strong body.
Yang Lei, who works in administration at an enterprise in Shanghai, and her colleagues teamed up to participate in the city's "Occupational Health Talent" skills competition in April. Shanghai's selection of "occupational health experts" this year was difficult,
requiring participants not only to complete a written test of occupational health knowledge, but also to take a half-minute jump rope, sit forward bending and body mass index test.
Yang Lei developed a sedentary habit in her administrative position, and since she became pregnant 10 years ago, she has rarely exercised and her physical strength has declined.
A month before the competition, she picked up a jump rope that she had not touched in more than 10 years to prepare for the competition, and what made her a little "hit her face" was that she was panting after just 20 jumps. "I only jumped 50 times in half a minute, I didn't expect my physical strength to drop so much than before!" Yang Lei was puzzled.
In order to get a good place, she began to jump rope training every day. That one month, she rain or shine. "If the weather is nice, I jump outside. If it's raining, I jump in the underground garage. I want to do at least 400 jumps a day."
Yang Lei said, "Just training when jumping for half a minute, you have to rest for more than ten minutes. After two weeks, I felt different. I could jump 100 times in a row, and the rest time was getting shorter and shorter."
Her efforts were not wasted, and she won the title of "Occupational health Master". She was also surprised to find that her weight also lost 3 kilograms in the same month.
For Yang Lei, her biggest gain is to develop a good habit of exercise. She told reporters that after the competition, she still insisted on jumping rope every day, and has now insisted on more than four months.
The impact of sports on people is quiet, but it will always be felt. Yang Lei excitedly told reporters about his changes: "I feel that the whole person has become light, physical quality is gradually getting stronger, recently have not been sick, and even the original rhinitis has improved."
Having tasted the sweetness of sports, Yang Lei is also actively driving her husband. "My husband has been trying to lose weight by cutting out carbs. At first it worked, but then it didn't work."
In Yang Lei's view, this way of weight loss is not scientific, she adheres to the dietary principle of "eat well in the morning, eat full at noon, and eat less at night." To this end, she also began to jump rope with her husband, and achieved the goal of weight loss through eating and moving.
"Workers may always cry that they don't have time to exercise, but it really elevates the whole person." Yang Lei regrets that in order to find a more easily realized way to help open this door, skipping is an economical and convenient sports project.
