Thursday, in "Without appointment", the nutritionist Laurence Plumey gave her advice to keep a diet over time.

Insisting on the importance of not choosing a too drastic diet, she invites you to organize your days well, to exercise as soon as possible, and to cook yourself.

Kilos that do not go, frustration born of deprivation, weight gain ... the diets acclaimed by many French people throughout the year often prove ineffective.

Blame it on too drastic restrictions and poor organization.

Guest Thursday of Sans rendez-vous, on Europe 1, Laurence Plumey, nutritionist and author of 

How to lose weight happy when you do not like sport or vegetables

, gave some advice to keep your diet long, while continuing to have fun. 

No overly restrictive diet 

On Europe 1, the nutritionist warns against overly restrictive diets, to which we would turn to lose weight as quickly as possible and in the most spectacular way.

For example, diets under 1,000 calories "are not at all balanced," she insists.

"You are hungry all the time, and it's impossible to diet under these conditions."

Moreover, she adds, these diets will lead, in addition to the loss of fat, to muscle loss.

"So, it tires, it deficiency and we stop all physical activity. It's totally counterproductive."

Go gradually 

Rather than a drastic diet, Laurence Plumey recommends starting with a diet of 1,200 calories per day, which allows "to make three full meals", while having fun.

"The 200 calories more than the 1000 is the part of starch you can take at noon with the vegetables. These are the equivalent of the two lumps of sugar you can take in the day in the form of jam or honey. It doesn't seem like much, but it changes everything. Because when you're in the restriction all the time, you can't follow the diet for long, "she explains. 

This first goal of 1,200 calories is only temporary.

"It will last three weeks or a small month, and then we will quickly evolve towards 1,500 calories per day (...) and then, we stabilize at 1800.", concludes Laurence Plumey.

Keep it fun, cook your vegetables

In a diet, "you need gluttony", insists Laurence Plumey, because "a diet should not be a one shot".

For the nutritionist, "it is almost necessary that the person has the feeling of not following a diet, and that it is a new way of eating".

Also, she advises to make "real full and filling meals: a good breakfast, a good lunch, an afternoon snack and a light dinner". 

For many people, the idea of ​​a diet is often associated with the idea of ​​severe restrictions and meals consisting of unappetizing vegetables.

These vegetables, recalls Laurence Plumey, are "important" because of their benefits for transit, "with fibers, vitamins and antioxidants that are not found anywhere else", as well as their low caloric intake.

And it is important to eat it for lunch and dinner.

In addition, "nobody ever likes any vegetable", says the specialist, and we always like at least some raw vegetables or cooked vegetables.

For the diet, "it doesn't matter if you always eat the same thing, you just have to dress up your vegetables in a different way".

"What I recommend is, at each meal, to eat the vegetables that you like raw or cooked, always as an accompaniment to starchy foods. It helps reduce the consumption of starchy foods by having vegetables on the side. And it's good for you because you finally get used to loving ”.

And to conclude: "When we say that we do not like vegetables, it is often a question of recipes. Very often, people who do not like vegetables are bored, do not know how to cook". 

Seize every opportunity to burn off 

Another obstacle often encountered by people wishing to lose weight: sports allergy.

But just because you refuse to go through the doors of a gym or a club does not mean that it is forbidden to exercise.

"We have legs, it's for it to be useful, so let's walk, walk and walk", insists the nutritionist, proposing for example to come out for a walk "at least 30-45 minutes with a tonic step" after his working day . 

And for those whose schedules do not allow this daily walk, Laurence Plumey advises to "seize the slightest opportunity to work out at the office".

"There is no small expenditure of calories. We go up the stairs instead of taking the elevators, we will see our colleague three floors above instead of sending him an email," she lists.

"Over eight hours of work, it may have made you burn 200 to 300 calories."

Organize meals well

The key to success, "it's a light dinner," assures Laurence Plumey, who invites you to organize your calorie intake well throughout the day.

"Everything pushes us to eat little in the morning for breakfast, to have lunches that are not, and to throw ourselves on the evening meal", she regrets, whereas it is necessary "qu 'roughly between 60 and 70% of the calories of the day are brought to us between breakfast and lunch. 

To better accept the light dinner and the long hours of the afternoon, the specialist recommends having a snack around 4-5 p.m., for example with an apple.

This fruit has two qualities, she says: first of all, a sweet taste and a high fiber content.
