Q: How can I help my 46 year old mother lose weight?
Mom is 46 and has been screaming to lose weight since I was little, however I watched her go from 130 to 150, she recently signed up for a diet to lose weight and I know that dieting reduces what basal metabolism and will rebound anyway, so what is the best way to get my mom to lose weight? Can wear the little dresses she wants to buy.
Answer:
That's a good question yah!
As a nine-zero, parents have gradually into middle-aged and old age, the body is not as good as a day, the worry about their parents believe that all the nine-zero are empathetic.
Obesity, as one of the major health killers, is particularly serious among middle-aged and elderly women. Almost nine out of ten moms are fat, and the remaining one is a fairy.
My mother, who spends her days lying around the house playing with her cell phone, can't escape the curse of getting fat. One day, after my sister and I kept spouting off, my mother finally realized that she had gained weight. Then, without my knowledge, she went for a daily walk in Forest Park near her home, which was either uphill or downhill almost the entire time. As a result, by the time I finally learned of the efforts my mom had made, she was already supporting an injury that made it hurt to take a step.
Fortunately, it wasn't serious, and after a month in bed, she was finally better and fatter.
After that again, I didn't dare slack off and gave her a detailed customized schedule, as well as a mandatory dose of exercise safety.
The schedule is as follows:
Have any sports-related hobbies. Shuttlecock, square dancing, tai chi, badminton, table tennis. Since my parents' generation had a rather boring childhood, these are probably the only sports hobbies they had, and if they didn't have any, then they really didn't have any.
If there is, they are strongly encouraged to play and move their bodies.
Is there any vice that is harmful to the body and not much necessary. For example, playing mahjong, playing cell phones for a long time, smoking, going to KTV often to get high, going to bed late and waking up early.
Thinking of ways to change, moving with love and reasoning, coaxing if you can, coaxing can't, then the law.
Take them for a run, run with them, observe the condition of mom and dad when they are running, to what speed they are tired, where they run to the farthest, what is the condition of their body after running, how fast they recover.
Make routes and plans centered around your home. Safety as the first factor, mood and rest as the second.
The lower the difficulty level at the beginning, the better.
After the exercise, keep praising them over and over again for being skinny again, handsome again, good looking, a million times better!
Okay, end of answer.
We are growing up and mom and dad are getting smaller. Don't forget the patience that mom and dad used to take care of us when we were little, and we need to give the same patience to our parents in the future.
