According to dieticians and nutritionists , localized weight loss does not exist . So do not believe in the effectiveness of miracle products. The only way to lose accumulated fat and cellulite and slim the thighs is a combined program of nutrition, beauty treatments and physical activity. So here’s how to slim your thighs and lose weight at the same time. DIET – Limit your fat intake as much as possible. The only solution to lose weight is to monitor your diet and limit the intake of fatty foods.
– Eliminate cold cuts, fried and greasy dishes.
– Replace starchy foods with proteins. Thanks to proteins (eggs, poultry, lean meats, fish) the muscles replace the fat: so much more for the thighs.
– If consumed in the evening, the starchy foods (pasta, rice) are stored, and it is therefore better to consume them for lunch, but in moderation.
– Drink lots of water. The thighs are the part of the body that is most affected by water retention, so you need to constantly drain them. Drink at least one and a half liters of water a day to eliminate toxins and make extensive use of soups and hot drinks such as tea.
– Try to eliminate as much salt as possible , as it promotes water retention. Be wary of ready meals, which often contain a lot of it and even sparkling water.
– Avoid sugar: it is not good for the figure and also increases the circumference of the thighs and buttocks. No to candies, sweets, ice cream but also carbonated drinks and alcohol. – Consume a lot of fruit and vegetables. Rich in vitamins and minerals, fruits and vegetables are excellent for health but also for the figure, as they contain few calories.
BEAUTY TREATMENTS – Creams. Based on caffeine or guarana, refreshing or with a thermal effect, there are numerous creams on the market designed to thin the thighs and eliminate cellulite. The cream is much more effective if it is combined with a lymphatic drainage massage, which reactivates the blood circulation.
– The cold shower. Grandma’s remedy, the cold shower, although not very pleasant, has proved its effectiveness. After taking a bath or shower, run a jet of cold water on your thighs: you will reactivate the circulation and tone the skin.
– Lymphatic drainage. This technique consists in stimulating the lymph through manual pressures that fight the feeling of heaviness in the legs and eliminate cellulite. Lymphatic drainage is practiced in the institute at least once or twice a month. PHYSICAL ACTIVITY – Swimming is a complete sport that works the whole body, especially the thighs. To work the muscles deeply, use the fins, which increase the effort. Water aerobics will allow you to make less abrupt but no less effective movements.
– Jogging and, par excellence, the sport that allows you to get dream legs. Prolonged effort allows you to burn fat and thus become leaner. We advise you to run for at least half an hour or more, but be careful to wear suitable shoes, otherwise you risk hurting your joints.
– Skating is a fun sport that you can practice for a long time and without getting too tired, rollerblading will make you thighs and buttocks of steel. – The brisk walk: to have beautiful legs is the easiest activity to do. Take advantage of every opportunity to walk a bit, go shopping on foot, avoid taking the bus if you only have to make two stops. And no elevator! Getting into the habit of walking up stairs is easy and works your thigh muscles.
– Dance : if you don’t like doing sports, try to choose dance. It puts a lot of strain on the leg muscles, especially Latin American dances or African dances.
– The bicycle. The bicycle allows you to work the muscles of the legs gently and, in addition, it is easy to find the time to do it: you can go to work by bicycle or make small trips. When the weather is good, cycling is more enjoyable than public transport.
