Rapid Weight Loss

Rapid weight loss side effects & disadvatages

 


Rapid weight loss, though wrongly, is nearly always associated with extreme dieting of one form or another. There is no week that goes by that you donot hear a health expert advising you to lose weight slooowly. Yet there are a few things we want done like yesterday. Two of which are fitting on those sexy pair of size 2 jeans and getting a stunning set of six pack abs.

This explains why inspite the caution from an array of consevative health expert, fad diets and diet pills are among the most popular ways to lose weight. Joining into the fray more recently are different forms of weight loss surgeries which are increasingly becoming popular as a means of rapid weight loss.

So is losing weight very fast a good thing or a bad thing? Well the answer is, it depends. The truth is that you can lose weight fast and keep it off. You also can also lose weight rapidly and sufffer life threatening repurcutions.

Super fast weight loss can occur due to correctly matching you and a diet strategy.
But if you want to lose belly fat specifically, you will need to "Go Beyond Calories". Infact you need to "Go Beyond Calories" and focus on two things, just two things.  Watch this short video below to see these two things...

 


But get a poor match of you and the diet strategies, and expect to suffer some consequences. The least of which is to put back all the weight you lose, and even some. Here we look at some of the side effects and disadvantages of losing weight too quickly.

A low calorie diet is technically a diet that provides 800 calories or less daily. Though there are circumstances under which medically supervised fast weight loss can be administered, it is generally considered a risk to health and is highly discouraged.

Most above board diets would tend to discourage losing weight too fast. And even when it is recommended by a physician, there are imminent effects that tend to accompany fast weight loss

But what you need to note is that most of these effects often tend to accompany weight loss surgery in particular. Below are some of the more common ones.

 

Side Effects of Rapid Weight Loss


Shivering: This is a typical short term effect of bariatric surgery

Body fat provides insulation against loss of heat. Some body fat is stored immediately below the skin reducing the amount of heat lost to the environment. 

Often you will find that as a fat person you tend to sweet a lot. 

Sweating is the body’s secondary cooling mechanism and is effected as the loss of heat through the skin is not effective due to body fat.

In rapid weight loss, this insulation is lost very quickly. 

In the short term there is not yet an equivalent development of muscle tissue to generate more heat to keep you as warm. 

Consequently your body signals your muscle tissues to spasm to produce more heat to cover the gap. This fast and repetitive contraction and relaxation of muscles is meant to generate more heat hence shivering.


Hair Loss: This is also a typical short term effect of weight loss surgery. Hair loss in rapid weight loss plans generally occurs due to reduced in take of proteins. Following weight loss surgery, hair loss starts occurring in the fourth and fifth month. 

This results from the shedding of your hair follicles. With reduced protein intake your body sacrifices hair that is made from proteins to make the little protein available to more important body functions. It especially pronounced in weight loss surgery as these individual have extremely low protein diets.

Fortunately once your nutrition goes back to normal and you provide enough dietary protein, the hair loss stops and your hair thickness goes back to normal.


Gall Stones: Fast diets can also result to gall stones. This may be through aggravating silent gallstones that show symptoms or by creating new gall stones. Symptomatic gallstones may end up requiring gallbladder surgery – cholecystectomy.

Gal stones are clumps of solid material that form in the gall bladder. It is caused possibly by a shift in the balance of bile salts and cholesterol. Sudden dietary changes could increase cholesterol formed by the body and reduce the bile salts which would then result to clumping of cholesterol to form solid material. 

This can result to painful attack that may last up to an hour. Complications include inflammation of the gall bladder, liver or pancreas caused by the clumps (gall stones) being lodged in the bile duct.

Also reduced contraction of the gallbladder due to long periods of fasting often present in rapid weight loss programs can increase possibility of gallstones. Some people do have gallstones that do not show symptoms. But when they go into rapid weight loss, they aggravate them resulting to symptoms.


Loss of muscle tissue: One great disadvantage of losing weight quickly is loss of lean muscle tissue. The body has its way of using energy resources with utmost efficiency. When you result to rapid weight loss, the body recognizes that it is getting very little calories for its daily needs. And since it considers body fat as its energy reserve, metabolism adjust to preserve it energy reserve.

Apart from making you sluggish to reduce the use of energy, the body results to digesting your muscle tissue to provide energy. This makes sure your reserve energy is expended slowly. A reduction in muscle tissue has the added disadvantage of reducing basal metabolic rate meaning you expend even lesser energy. Rapid weight literally can make your body to hang onto body fat while digesting your muscles.

 

Loss of water: This is related to loss of muscle tissue. Proteins that make up muscles are made up of carbon, nitrogen and water molecules. Infact most of the compound constitutes water. In rapid lose of weight you realize as the body digests more proteins, your bathroom scale shows significant loss in weight.

Unfortunately as you are losing muscle tissue, you are also losing water. Immediately you start eating normally and provide enough dietary proteins to reconstruct your muscle tissues you will put back all the weight lightning fast. This is because the water lost in the digestion of muscle tissue s quickly put back in reconstructing the muscles.

 

Hanging body skin: This is especially common among the obese that lose a huge amount of body fat rapidly. Such rapid weight loss does not allow for your body skin to shrink back and get firmly wrapped around your body. Most affected areas are usually the under-arm, tummy and at times the thighs.

The most affected areas are those that store the most body fat. Since body fat is stored just under the skin and around organs, once the fat is gone, it leaves loose skin that hangs. At time to correct the situation you may require cosmetic surgery that involves removing excess skin.

Keeping away from fast weight loss is probably one of the most prudent advises in losing weight, though it is fair to try and get the fastest weight loss possible for you. In some situations, a well structured rapid weight loss plan may be required to manage co-morbid conditions. Co-morbid conditions are health conditions that accompany obesity. They include diabetes, hypertension and sleep apnea.

When such a quick weight loss plan is executed it should take into consideration possible nutrient deficiencies, side effects and sustainability of such weight loss.

These effects as noted earlier will only show up in very extreme case of rapid weight loss. If you are looking to lose a couple of pounds in two weeks you should be fine most of the time. However if you are looking to lose belly fat fast, easily and permanetly you will need to "Go Beyond Calories". You need to "Go Beyond Calories" and focus on two things, just two things. These two are....
