Lose Your Weight During Ramadan
Do you lose weight during Ramadan?
Some of you may be thinking, "Wow, that sounds like a great way to lose weight! Im going to try it!" But in fact, Ramadan is actually notorious for often causing weight gain. Thats because eating large meals super early in the morning and late at night with a long period of low activity bordering on lethargy in between can wreak havoc on your metabolism.
But if youre careful, you can avoid putting on weight, and you may actually lose a few pounds. One meta-analysis of scientific studies on the effects of Ramadan fasting on body weight found that "weight changes during Ramadan were relatively small and mostly reversed after Ramadan, gradually returning to pre-Ramadan status. Ramadan provides an opportunity to lose weight, but structured and consistent lifestyle modifications are necessary to achieve lasting weight loss."
So just like with any other extreme diet plan, you may lose a few pounds, but unless you actually make "structured and consistent lifestyle modifications," youre probably not going to see major, lasting results.
