Losing Weight in Nigeria
Most Nigerians are not aware of how to lose weight, and this is why there are people who resort to drastic measures like drugs and starvation. But what most people don’t know is that losing weight is easy when you know how to do it properly.

"The human body is a machine that runs on energy. In order to lose weight, you have to be in a caloric deficit—meaning you’re burning off more calories than you’re consuming.

Losing weight is a process, not an event. The first step is to start and then take it one step at a time. Don’t let your weight loss efforts overwhelm you. Don’t try to do too much too soon and don’t try to lose more than 2 pounds per week.

Weight loss doesn’t come easily for most people, but science has shown that the right combination of diet, exercise, and lifestyle changes can help many people lose weight and keep it off long term.

As a Nigerian, we hope that you have gotten a better understanding of how to lose weight properly and in a healthy manner that will not hurt your health.
