Slow and steady approach is key for effective weight loss: Study

In case you are on a weight-loss regime and want to shed those extra kilos, there's some news for you. According to a new study, if you wish to achieve any of your weight loss goals, you need to be consistent.

People who undergo varying weight reduction every week may not be able to achieve much success compared to those who lose weight consistently.

You should adopt a slow and steady approach when it comes to weight-loss. The report was published in Journal Obesity.

The research was conducted on 183 participants who were overweight or obsess. All these 183 adults enrolled in a weight loss programme and were provided with meal replacements. The programme also involved behavioral goals which included self-monitoring, increase in physical activity and motioning of calories.

It was found out that after two years, the participants with steady weight-loss during the starting three months were able to reduce more pounds compared to those who fluctuated a lot.
