The last 5 kg. How to lose the last three kilograms? Eliminate extra pounds without stress for the body

By the way, "3 kg to ideal" ruined more than one career in fitness and modeling business. This is the name of the very kilograms with which the weight seems to be healthy and correct from the point of view of doctors, but, nevertheless, on the screen the person does not look very good. Before the start of the holiday season, the “last grams” excite people who are far from cinema, competitions in the bikini category, and from the demonstration of swimsuits on the catwalk. According to US FDA statistics, 88% of American women of quite normal weight consider themselves fat. Unfortunately, for Russia, such figures have not yet been made public, but this does not prevent us from realizing a simple fact - “we look plump, even with healthy weight". Personally, I meet girls who do not dream of losing weight in gym about once a week, and I work more than 20 hours a week. More than one article has been written on the topic of the last kilograms, personally it seems to me that the technique of “finishing off” from Jillian Michaels is quite adequate.

Salt, seasonings, glutamate - 1.5 liters of excess liquid

What to do: exclude canned food, soy sauce, seasonings with flavor enhancers and the same salt

Why: These products effectively trap excess fluid. They are responsible for your cellulite, swelling and condition when, like, we eat and train according to the plan, but instead good result we get a "standing in place" weight.

How to replace foods that are sources of excess salt. Instead of an "essential fitness sauce," train yourself to water salads and buckwheat ... with lemon juice. You can also sprinkle with crushed fucus. In general, you can afford half a teaspoon of coarse natural sea salt, provided that you do not eat canned and semi-finished products, and order food without gas stations in public catering.

Avoiding canned food is easy. Just boil the chicken breast in advance, steam the fish, pack it in vacuum bags, and let it lie in the refrigerator. Packages, by the way, can be bought for about 300 rubles in any online store, and in almost any "china shop" there are containers with a tight lid. Let it not be "live food", but still not canned.

Small letters on the packaging of ready-made seasonings should be read without fail. If there's something like "dihydro-nitro-something" or E 220, leave the seasoning to the owners of the grilled chicken stall. Didn't find anything? Buy red hot pepper, ginger root, peppercorns, Bay leaf, and dried dill with parsley. This should be enough to get you started.

A lot of fitness does not mean good

What to do: "push" all your workouts into 1 hour a day maximum, arrange 2 days of complete rest per week

Why: Behind the scenes of the Biggest Loser show, there are quite a few knee reconstruction surgeries left. Yes, American reality fat men trained for 3 hours a day. But with this technique and a bunch of stops during cardio, they are allowed. They also had a team of good orthopedists. The district doctor of your polyclinic, by the way, would hardly have entered there.

And long-term workouts have a significant disadvantage - they cause adaptation and slow down metabolism. In other words, they require a tougher diet.

How to train: D. Michaels suggests that you "roll" all of your strength and cardio workouts into one metabolic cycle. It's pretty simple. If you work out in the gym, make yourself a program that includes 1 exercise for each large muscle group, and perform movements of 15-20 repetitions, one after the other, doing 4-5 circles of exercises. This is instead of the classic power ones. And instead of regular cardio, take intervals on a treadmill or ellipse.

If you train at home, take any program of the same Michaels lasting 30 minutes. And alternate weight training with non-weight training day after day. For example, Monday is kettlebell training, Tuesday is yoga, Wednesday is rest, Thursday is kettlebell again, Friday is yoga again, and Saturday is kettlebell or abs workout. Spend the “remaining half an hour” on cardio – skipping rope, running down the street, stairs, exercising on a home exercise bike, you can choose anything. The main thing is that your heart rate should “walk” along the upper border of the fat burning zone.

Forget about diet days

What to do: Stop following the popular "eat anything on one day off diet" advice. The advice is fundamentally correct, but its presentation allows you to overeat so much that all the benefits of the diet followed before are lost.

Why: in one piece of a standard pizza on a thick dough, there are about 720 kcal. And do not poke your finger into the package, where 320 kcal is written. Did you weigh this piece? So it's heavier than 100g, definitely. And it is perceived as a "small violation of the diet", and not as a diet disaster. It is worth adding, say, beer or ice cream to this pizza, and eating your favorite pancakes for breakfast, and drinking coffee with cream, the diet attempts of the previous week will cheerfully dissolve under the weight of the “permissiveness day”.

How to give yourself indulgence: There are 2 options. Either you arrange for yourself 1 day of “high calorie content”, when you “eat up”, say, 100% of the body’s need for calories, but exclusively healthy and wholesome food, or you arrange a full-fledged “unhealthy meal” with that dish, without which life seems dull to you and hopeless. But only one technique - the rest of the "repetitions and approaches" remain within the framework of the diet.

Measure your heart rate while exercising with a heart rate monitor

What to do: buy the simplest heart rate monitor for $50 at the nearest sports store. Remember to wear it every time before training, whether it's a "circular", "metabolic" or a simple cardio session. Calculate 50-85% of your maximum heart rate, and stick to the upper limits if you are young, healthy and athletic, and about 60% of your maximum heart rate if your fitness leaves much to be desired

Why: because ION and other "subjective scales" help us to be lazy. Have you ever taken a bus tour? So, walking 200 m to the next cathedral sometimes seems like a full-fledged workout, since you go without wanting it yourself and pretty tired. Meanwhile, heart rate and calorie consumption almost do not increase. It's the same with sports. Moral fatigue from fitness, lack of sleep, hunger due to diet, finally, and now it seems to you that you plowed. But in fact, you were riding a horse.

How to measure the pulse: it's simple - set up the sensor, as stated in the instructions for your device, and forward to the heights of fat burning. True, Jill's recommendations here differ from the generally accepted ones. The American trainer advises the trained to “plow” in the zone of 70-85% of the maximum heart rate, and do this for almost the entire training hour, excluding warm-up and cool-down. It should be noted that "so" trained people must run 5 km in less than 26 minutes and have at least a year of continuous training for these recommendations to be considered safe for health. In any case, the majority sins by training at 40-50% of the target heart rate zone, and the recommendations apply specifically to this majority.

But cutting the daily calorie content by more than 15% of the norm, drinking bioadditives and perverting with jumping in sauna suits is not worth it. Usually, the body's adaptation to stress easily and naturally overcomes these "obstacles", and instead of losing weight, you get a "plateau".

Elena Selivanova

If the weight in the process of losing weight did not decrease in jumps, but constantly, probably, there would be no problems. Just mark the date on the calendar, follow the recommendations, and you will get everything you want.

By the way, many people think so. We were taught to think in terms of some standard weight parameters and the same speeds of getting rid of excess. Why?

Our goals lose relevance over time. The same numbers on the scales on a typical day and on the day before leaving on vacation can have very different effects on the psyche and self-esteem.

And who would buy all these diet books if they said: “You will lose weight, we don’t know when and how much, but this will be your healthy weight.”

In general, all this often prevents us from seeing the simple physiological causes of our suffering and problems.

Calories, speed and habits

In people who, in principle, do not restrict food, but do not overeat, and in people who have spent half their lives on various diets, the processes of losing weight occur in different ways.

In the first case, there is no restriction skill, but, fortunately, the body does not know how to adapt. Therefore, the first diet in life is usually the most successful. Provided that a person can withstand it long enough and does not have serious eating disorders.

And also on the condition that he will not be guided by the experience of girlfriends, the legacy of diet sites and other similar information. The ideal situation looks like this:

• With food restriction and increased physical activity, the fat burning process begins.
• At the same time, “healthy” dietary changes, such as reducing sugar and salt intake, avoiding fried foods and alcohol, help to get rid of excess fluid.
• The introduction of vegetables and fruits into the menu makes the stool regular, which also reduces weight.
• After a few weeks, the person sees "minus 5 kg" on the scales and continues his program.

In this case, the pace will decrease only slightly: the factors of fluid and digestion will stop working in such a volume, all the “excess” has already been removed. If the diet is appropriate and followed long enough, the project will be successful.

But the presence of the habit of dieting and the "experience" of more than 3 diets over the past six months can change the picture dramatically.

Usually, a person who is always losing weight already has quite healthy habits, and weight loss due to the removal of excess fluid will not make a beautiful picture. Each diet seems to be less and less effective, because at first there are no such plumb lines as before. Further, cleansing dietary supplements and other “fat absorbers, appetite suppressants” are usually used, or even a doubling of physical activity.

In general, a person begins to do everything to “drive” himself into that zone where diet and exercise cease to be a usual comfortable part of life and become a real hybrid of trial and punishment.

The more difficult the task in principle, the more various pitfalls there will be. “Tightening the nuts”, you can not see at all how the “last” 10 kg will melt. Why is this happening?

Normal plateau and early plateau

A normal plateau occurs just when the weight has decreased by 5-10 kg from the original, and the body has already managed to adapt to both the diet and physical education.

This usually coincides with an increase in fitness, and then you can simply expand and supplement your fitness activities, increase calorie expenditure and continue to lose weight. In addition, you will have to recalculate the caloric content of the diet for the “new weight” so that the energy deficit is preserved. Sometimes you need to wait a bit, sometimes a normal plateau "flies" by itself.

But with an early plateau, not everything is so simple. This is a consequence of the use of an unreasonably strict diet at the first stage of losing weight. Usually we try to cut calories as much as possible in the first couple of weeks, we are full of enthusiasm, and it seems to us that the more we push, the faster we will skip the unpleasant stage of weight loss and we can move on to a pleasant wardrobe update. In reality, this only causes early adaptation to a low-calorie diet.

An early plateau is a typical problem for those who diet constantly. For such people, even the most psychologically unpleasant option is possible: we limit, the weight decreases by 2 kilograms, and then ... nothing happens. And no matter how strictly we follow the recommendations of the next diet, nothing happens anyway.

In this case, unfortunately or fortunately, one cannot do without the help of a live real endocrinologist. Hand over analyses. Find out if everything is in order with your body, and whether weight loss is possible in principle at this stage of life. Then follow the recommendations.

Sabotage of the weight loss program

There is also simply hidden sabotage of the program.

For example, according to the plan, we have a run, but it started to rain, and for some reason we replace the run not with cardio on a home simulator or swimming in the municipal pool, but with ... an hour stretching. Or instead of a sandwich on grain bread with chicken breast we eat - almost the same, but with bacon and mayonnaise.

So what, it's light, but do you need stretching? From time to time, somewhere like this 1-2 times in 10 days is really nothing to worry about. But if this happens regularly, the reason that the “remaining 10 kg” does not go away is precisely because you are not following the program.

And that doesn't mean that you bad person or whatever is self-deprecating. Most likely, you just have an unrealistic program, or you put too much pressure on yourself instead of fitting weight loss into your normal life.

What to do, where to look for errors?

Analyze your diet

Squirrels. If the diet contains less than 1.5 g of protein per 1 kg of current weight, you should be hungry and hard. Correct immediately, otherwise self-deception will become a habit.

Fats. The diet does not contain fat, or you get by with the physiological norm of "30 g per day." Increase the amount of fat at least up to 0.6-0.8 g per 1 kg of weight; for "non-sporting" diets - this is a mandatory requirement.

Carbohydrates. Perhaps you succumbed to a mass phobia and completely abandoned carbohydrates. Eat at least 2 g per 1 kg of current weight, and preferably more. In the end, a low-carb diet is not a panacea, especially for those who do not exercise professionally.

In principle, can you do what the coach wrote to you there? Or do you not get a good half of the exercises from the word “completely”, the coach ignores you and thinks that you are just being lazy, and over time it doesn’t get better?

Maybe you are training from some kind of video that is well suited for trained athletes, but not for first-year amateurs? Or are you deliberately trying to train more than possible so that everything ends quickly?

Think about your attitude

No pictures with the notorious “I love myself and want to be beautiful”, no “beauty requires sacrifice” actually work. If you forcibly force yourself into something, most likely, one disorder will come out of it. Try to see the important in losing weight and brush aside the particulars.

Important: energy deficit and "surplus" of physical activity.

Particulars: will you eat porridge or not, will you "not eat after 6" or not, will you eat 6 times a day or 3, and even what kind of physical activity you will color your life.

Focus on yourself

Try not to think about the results of other people, do not set yourself as an example of "those girls" and do not try to fit into any standards for "height, weight, volume." Strive for your natural weight and better health, even though this can be the most difficult.

In the end, sometimes a simple “reducing the weight-bearing load on the brain” helps. Do you have an idea of ​​what to eat every day and how to move? So do it, stop looking for a new one for at least a couple of months and finally let your program work.

Reprinting, publication of an article on websites, forums, blogs, groups in contact and mailing lists is allowed only if active link to the website .

Every girl (woman) who has tried to lose weight at least once knows how hard the last few kilograms are. For example, with a height of 160 cm, you weigh 72 kg., And your dream is to lose 12 kg. So 9 kg. will leave quite easily (provided that you follow a diet), but the last 1-3 kg. at some point, “they just get up to die” and it seems that no tricks and tricks can move them.

But there are no hopeless situations: you don’t just need to despair and quit what you started halfway. You need to go to the intended goal to the end, despite the stop in weight. Psychologically, this is the most difficult moment in the whole weight loss process, as you are still on a diet, but you do not see results. And when there are no results, I really want to send everything to hell at that moment! Some do. And in vain, because without bringing the weight back to normal, you are 99.9% likely to gain your previous weight, and even add a few extra pounds.

So what to do to "wipe off the body" such stubborn extra pounds and finally "flutter" into your favorite trousers in two months? And for those who will be especially demanding of themselves, they will be able to boast of the result in a month.

First, make sure that these kilograms are really superfluous for you. This can be determined by the most elementary formula: height (in cm) minus 100 for men and 110 for women. But such a calculation does not take into account other important indicators, such as age and personal characteristics of a person. It is better to take data from the Egorov-Levitsky table, which is very popular among domestic nutritionists. There is no need to count anything, everything has been counted for you for a long time. There, according to growth, taking into account individual characteristics, the ideal weight has already been derived.

And in general, my advice to you, before you lose weight, decide on the right weight. This can be done on the site “losing weight correctly” (this is not advertising, but a vital necessity!). There you will find good tools that will help you determine your ideal weight, calculate calories, determine the level (value) of BMR (basal metabolic rate), calculate the percentage of body fat and much more.

For example, for a long time I was in happy ignorance about my weight - I always believed that with a height of 164 cm, my ideal weight should be 60 kg, although, being in this weight, I always experienced some kind of discomfort. And when I got to this wonderful site, I was surprised to find that I was right to experience discomfort - it turned out that I still need to lose weight, at least 2 kilograms. These two kilograms were given to me with such difficulty, as if I had lost 20 kilograms!

But I passed this stage thanks to the technique that my dietitian brought out for me. It is simple and consists of five points. After I started using it, these unfortunate two kilograms left my body quite comfortably.

And now you get FIVE rules that will help you at the last and most difficult stage.

1. Drink water. Doctors, nutritionists are already tired of shouting that for health you need to drink a lot of water (at least 2 liters / day!). Pay attention - not tea, not coffee, not compote, but plain clean water! What are we doing? Either we ignore this alarm call, or we drink a glass of water for decency and think that we have fulfilled our mission for today.

That's not how things will work. Water should be drunk for at least three reasons!
First, it reduces appetite.
Second, although water has no calories, it nevertheless increases metabolism because it sets in motion the processes that are associated with its absorption.
Third, water is necessary for the efficient functioning of our organs, especially the liver and kidneys. It is they who are responsible in the body for the processing and removal of various toxins and other unnecessary substances formed in the process of losing weight. So, it is in our interest to properly moisturize these organs. Do you agree?
Are you still not thirsty? Then you will slow down the whole process and push your ideal weight indefinitely.
But it’s not enough just to drink water, you need to drink it smartly: after six - try to drink less, and the rest of the time you drink 30 minutes BEFORE eating, and 60 minutes AFTER. And these are not the whims of doctors - we stimulate the release of endogenous fluid from fat deposits with this fluid intake.

2. Eat regularly. The mistake of many is that as soon as the weight goes down, the woman, seeing the result, relaxes and begins to allow herself to eat irregularly. Attention! She doesn't start eating cakes, sandwiches, fast food, she just starts skipping meals! Can afford to skip breakfast or lunch. Because of this, the diet that you worked so hard to normalize is disrupted.
It just so happened evolutionarily that our metabolism (the metabolic process) depends on the time of day, and when we sleep, the metabolic process slows down. But after the morning breakfast, this process “wakes up” and remains at a low level until lunch. So with a good breakfast, at the same time, you will save yourself from unwanted deals with your conscience, such as “if I don’t have breakfast, and I only eat an apple for lunch, then I can certainly afford whatever I want for dinner.”
So, do not relax for a second and follow a diet that includes at least 4-5 small meals a day.

3. Eat the right food. For you to understand, the right food is those foods that help speed up the metabolism. It's no secret that the less energy spent on digesting food, the more kilograms "stick" to us. In fact, everything is extremely simple: you don’t need to use fast carbohydrates, which are called so because they are digested in a matter of minutes and are quickly deposited in our “bins”. These include sugar, cakes, sweets, chocolate, cookies, jam, honey, sweet fruits.
But when processing unsweetened fruits, vegetables, proteins and whole grains, which contain fiber and dietary fiber, our body is forced to make an effort and “sweat”. So, set yourself a daily bar from 1100 to 1250 kcal, and continue the previously started “struggle” with fast carbohydrates.

4. Go half vegetarian. This means that half a week (3 days) you should not have meat in your diet. This advice I want to give you is not just for a while until you reach the desired weight. Becoming a "partial" vegetarian is better for you for life. Make it a rule to not eat meat 2 times/week. Try instead of meat (even chicken) to eat a serving of vegetables: broccoli, eggplant, peppers, zucchini.
Vegetarian food will help you save at least 600 kcal (calories) per week. Only on partial vegetarianism in two months can easily take up to two kilograms. And we, in fact, this is what we are trying to achieve.

5. Combine aerobic exercise with strength training. Aerobic exercise, also called cardio training, burns significantly more calories per session than strength training. A good example of cardio activity is: aerobics and running, skating and skiing, walking, cycling and swimming.
But the effect of strength training lasts much longer: you have long finished exercising, you have long arrived home, and calories continue to be burned. This process can last from 3 to 15 hours. Power training necessary to tone the muscles of the body, because experts say that two workouts a week allow a woman to lose up to two kilograms of fat within a month.

So, draw conclusions - with one type of exercise you are unlikely to be able to achieve results in such a short time, and alternation will bring this result closer.

And finally, the main stages of the path have already been completed, there is only a little bit left. Without faith in yourself, it will be difficult for you to master it. As one of the Russian writers perfectly said, that faith is that category of knowledge that does not need actual evidence. So believe in yourself by applying these five simple tips, catch the buzz from the very process of losing weight, and you will succeed!

Many girls do not know how easy it is to lose 3 kg in a week. Exist effective methods How can you implement this at home without any special restrictions.

If you need to lose weight by 3 kg, in principle, this is not such a critical mass that will require huge efforts. But in some cases, in the pursuit of excellent shape, many forget about their health.

1. Set a goal. In order to make it easier, you need to materialize your final goal in the form of an image. You can attach a picture with a girl who has a perfect figure in a prominent place. You can find an old thing that is a size smaller than your current body measurements and try it on regularly.
2. Do not forget about physical activity. If it is not possible to play sports actively, then take at least daily walks for at least half an hour at an intense pace. You can get a pedometer and control the distance traveled. It is best if 15-20 minutes a day will be devoted to aerobic exercise. This is the most the best option burn excess fat.
3. And of course water - be sure to have a glass of warm water in the morning on an empty stomach. This will start the metabolism, which will quickly burn body fat.

Proper physical activity

Do not neglect any kind of physical activity. If possible, it is better to walk two stops than to take a public transport. Each step will contribute to the burning of extra calories and the release of extra pounds.

It is important to perform targeted exercises, with the help of which the subcutaneous adipose tissue will become thinner. Here are the most effective ones:

1. Squats. To perform the exercise, you must take the correct position. In order not to injure the knee joints, squatting should be done so that the leg from the heel to the knee is always in a vertical position, and the thigh (from the knee to the buttocks) takes a horizontal position. It is very important that the squat is done on the exhale, and the rise - on the inhale.
2. Press. This exercise will help get rid of not only excess mass on the stomach, but also create the correct chiseled waist. This exercise can be done in different ways. In addition to lifting the body to bent knees, it is necessary to pump the press for the back. If it is not possible to lie down on a special stand, from which the upper part of the body will hang down. Then you can swing the press for the back simply from a prone position, while raising your shoulders and chest as high as possible. In addition, the press must be pumped with twisting of the body. In this case, when lifting the upper body, it is necessary to bring the left elbow behind the right knee, and on the next lift, bring the right elbow behind the left knee. Do not forget about lifting the legs with the body lying down. In this case, the so-called lower press is trained (the lower abdomen, which is so difficult to use in burning fat).
3. plank- one of the most popular exercises that really involves all muscle groups and makes the whole body work intensively to burn fat.

It is very important that all exercises are performed regularly. And it is desirable that at least 20 minutes were allotted for each lesson. It is after 15-20 minutes that active burning of body fat begins.

Wraps and massages

It is very useful in this week, which is reserved for weight loss, to hire a massage therapist or visit a massage parlor. It is necessary to do either an anti-cellulite option or a general massage. This procedure allows you to increase blood flow in all parts of the body.

Thus, metabolic processes in the body are accelerated, as a result of which fat deposits go away very quickly.

To lose weight by 3 kg in a week without diets, you need to do body wraps. They can be performed both cold and hot. In order to perform them as efficiently as possible, you can use kelp, honey, a mixture of mustard and chili peppers in the procedure. All these products contribute to disperse the lymph and blood flow.

Acupuncture procedure

This oriental technique allows you to influence biologically active points on the human body. Such an effect causes a decrease in appetite, acceleration of the same metabolism and improves overall well-being, giving vigor and strength.

Since, thanks to the acupuncture procedure, you can lose 3 kg per week, at home, you should use it in combination with other methods, but without strict diets.

Slimming for teenagers

Especially carefully you need to monitor the process of losing weight in adolescents. After all, restrictions on food intake can adversely affect the emerging body. Therefore, it is very important not to resort to rigid diets.

At the same time, physical activity should be increased - after all, the body is young, and it has practically no contraindications for intensive sports, including jogging, skating, rollerblading, rock climbing, and so on.

Since it is much easier for a teenager to lose weight without problems by 3 kg in a short period of time, for example, in a week than for an adult, you should not resort to extreme measures. It is enough just to lead a more active lifestyle and exclude fast food from your menu. It is important to remember that a teenager needs to eat right, include a large amount of vegetables, fruits and protein foods in his menu.

Dumping a small mass, you should not risk your health. It is better to make small efforts, which are described above. At the same time, they will make it possible, in addition to losing weight, to improve the body.

The less excess weight left to throw off, the slower progress progresses. The most difficult thing is to get rid of the last three kilograms, find out how to do it.

Don't think that you're the only one experiencing a slowdown in weight loss, nutritionists call this phenomenon the plateau effect. In order to overcome the plateau, use these recommendations.

Add more fiber to your diet

Fiber not only improves digestion, but also causes the body to spend a lot of energy on its digestion. More fiber - more calories will be spent, to get rid of the last three kilograms, eat as many vegetables, fruits, legumes, nuts and seeds as possible. Pure fiber can be bought at a pharmacy, it is very inexpensive, but before using, you should carefully read the instructions.

Change your training program

When the body gets used to the loads, training ceases to bring such an effect as at the very beginning. If you use the same training plan for several months, it is not surprising that the process of losing weight has slowed down. Add variety, change the training time, the number of sets and repetitions, add new exercises, increase the intensity of their performance. You can not change the training plan, but make the frequency more dense, for example, not one, but two workouts per day.

Make sure your diet is right

Especially this item applies to those who have digestive problems, such people should have fermented milk products with probiotics. Soy, nut and coconut milk will not interfere with the weight loss process. Make sure you eat enough fish, eggs, flaxseeds and walnuts, for the body, these foods are sources of omega-3 fatty acids and vitamin D.

Vitamin and mineral complexes from a pharmacy will help compensate for the deficiency of vitamins and minerals, but they should be used only as directed by a doctor.

Normalize your sleep patterns

Quality sleep is not only cheerfulness and energy, but also a real feeling of satiety after meals. People who sleep at least 6 hours a night consume 20% fewer calories than those who suffer from chronic sleep deprivation. 20% of the diet is about 400 calories, you should think about it.

Say goodbye to alcohol

Celebrating lost pounds with alcoholic beverages is a very bad idea. Alcohol is a huge amount of empty calories. Many people's favorite pina colada contains 174 calories per 100 ml, while the size of one serving is 300-500 ml, one cocktail has more calories than a good serving of shrimp pasta. Any alcohol introduces the body into a state of intoxication and suppresses the production of glucose, which is necessary to maintain normal blood sugar levels. Metabolism decreases, you stop losing weight, your self-control level also decreases, and you allow yourself to eat high-calorie foods that you would not even look at in a sober state. Give up alcohol at least for a while
