When dieting, is it a good idea to look at waist circumference rather than weight?
When you're on a diet, you end up checking the scale first thing every day, don't you?
However, there are times when your weight remains the same but your clothes feel a little more comfortable, and conversely, times when you have lost weight but don't really feel any change in your body shape.
So I became curious if it is okay to judge whether the diet is going well just by looking at a single number.
I think checking other criteria as well, such as waist circumference or how the clothes fit, would be helpful in understanding the changes.
However, since waist circumference can vary depending on the location or time of measurement, you should compare them under the same conditions, right?
What other indicators do people on a diet check in addition to their weight?
Please share any methods that helped you manage it consistently.

- 01CommentsIf you have joint problems, rather than pushing yourself to walk or run, it would be good to start with exercises that place less strain on the joints, such as swimming or aqua aerobics. It is also fine to start with an indoor bicycle lightly within a pain-free range. Since diet management is also important for weight loss, avoid increasing the intensity of your workouts too much and try to find a way to exercise consistently. If the pain persists, it is advisable to identify the cause first.521026.10.17

- 03CommentsI also sometimes lose motivation when I look only at my weight and feel like there is no change. That is why I think it is good to check your waist size and how your clothes fit as well. Rather than fixating too much on the daily numbers, I think it is important to keep a consistent record and find meaning in even small changes.170026.10.23

- 02CommentsI recommend consuming a small amount of 100% freeze-dried products made from natural ingredients without added seasonings, rather than commercially available seasoned products. Since seasonings contain high levels of sugar and sodium that can stimulate appetite, chewing slowly and in small portions of additive-free products will be very helpful in satisfying your craving for texture.1484126.10.10
