If losing weight is hard enough, which may be more desperate still upon arriving at our goal weight in the coming months to see that little by little began to recover lost kilos. And it is to stick to our ideal weight can be as difficult as losing it at the time.

Also returning to unhealthy weight, regain the lost kilos may have other negative effects such as:
* Depression and anxiety in addition to a negative impact on our self-esteem
* Have the feeling of losing control which may in turn lead to “comfort” with binge eating
* More trouble losing weight with age. Studies have shown that women who go through cycles of weight loss and weight gain more fat over time than women who have not been there. And women who are experiencing menopause also have greater difficulty losing weight.


Some tips to keep the weight at the end of the diet:
* Stay alert: important to remain attentive to those who eat even when we consider that diet is over. It is not a diet to lose weight but to follow the guidelines of a healthy diet, and enjoy the change of habits that this entails. Once we have reached our ideal weight, we can add about 200 calories of low-fat foods daily diet. If you continue losing weight can add a little more, but we must continue to follow closely the calories.
* Get support from others: if we have joined a support group to help you lose weight, we should not abandon it just because we’ve reached our goal. Most people who achieve their weight goals begin to recover lost kilos in less than five years. Support groups help us to stay the course and require often control our weight.
* Staying active: most weight loss programs include some type of exercise several times a week. It is important that while we finish with the diet, continue with the exercise, as this helps keep the metabolism in the form which in turn helps your body burn calories more efficiently we consume. When we make more exercise, more calories can be taken daily.
