Weight Loss

Weight loss is seen as the solution for being obese or overweight.  Malaysians today want to lose weight fast, especially for health reasons.  And also to look and feel good!

Weight loss methods in Malaysia is a popular topic, alongside the other popular topic, food. We will talk more about weight loss methods later in this website.  But the important thing is, which part of the body are we losing weight?

Most people are do not know that different programs and plans will see weight loss happen at different places of the body.  Keep in mind that weight loss is achieved by losing water, fat and muscle protein.  Is this important?  Yes, because our goals determine which part of the body to lose weight on.

We can lose weight fast by not eating rice and noodles.  This may result with only a minimal fat loss.   And this can potentially result in muscle and kidney damage.

Using normal diet and exercise methods, fat can be lost and muscles built, but health issues may remain.  This is because central fat did not get lost, but primarily the unsightly fat on the legs and arms.

Many people have gone through weight loss and slimming programs only to rebound later.  This becomes the “The more I try to lose weight or go on a slimming program, the more fatter I become later on.”.

So what do we need to know to take the right approach to weight loss?  What most healthcare and also beauty professionals in Malaysia agree on is that health is the most important factor to consider.  So weight loss needs to be done in consideration of our personal health goals.

Personal radiance or the glow of inner beauty is the second factor considered.  This is because a radiant personality indicates that the person is healthy and has a vitality that is attractive.   Body tone is third, for clothes to drape gracefully over a well toned and fit body.
