When Losing Weight Seems Difficult [Proven!]
Often, when people start their new weight loss program, they have a lot of drive to stick with it. Sometimes the long term goal just seems too elusive, and the tendency is to give up too soon. Some people can lose weight and keep it off. How do they do this? How can I discover the magic needed to make this incredible progress possible? What is it?
Defining your goals should be a priority on your weight loss journey. What exactly are you trying to accomplish through weight loss? Do you want to drop a few sizes? Are you shooting for a specific weight? Is health your main goal?
Keep tabs on exactly how much weight you lose every week. You should weigh yourself each week and keep a daily food diary. Making a note of what you consume gives you accountability, which will often lead to better food choices.
If you become too hungry, your ability to make rational food choices will diminish and you may end up on an eating binge that you will later regret. You can avoid these complications by planning ahead and bringing those foods with you for your meals. It is a good idea to bring a lunch with you from home. You will save money by bringing your own food, and the food you make will be healthier than what you can get from restaurants and fast food places.
A big part of successful weight loss is combining healthy eating with consistent exercise. It is very important to exercise at least three days out of the week. If you think this will be difficult to stick to, then choose activities you will have fun doing. If you like having long conversations with your friends, you can go with them for a walk. Short hikes on a nature trail or even just a walk through the neighborhood park can satisfy your thirst for the great outdoors and get you some exercise! If you like to dance then go out dancing, but try a new form of dance such as salsa or samba classes.
Do not let other members of your household fill your fridge with bad food choices. That may be hard for you and your family members at first, but they need to know that it’s not healthy for you or them. Pack your pantry and refrigerator with healthy food choices instead of junk. Don’t worry, you won’t suffer from lack of snacks. Having fruit as a snack is an excellent choice for people of all ages. Keep a supply of granola and assorted healthy snacks in your pantry for everyone in your house to enjoy.
Have your friends and family keep tabs on your weight loss progress. They can act as your support system and provide you with advice, encouragement and inspiration when you need it most, helping you stay on the path to achieving your weight loss goals. If you find yourself becoming unmotivated, meet up with your friends and family to get yourself going again.
