It is easy to feel determined and motivated at the beginning of your new weight loss plan. But after a while, people give up because their dream seems too far away. Some people can lose weight and keep it off. How do they do this? One wonders if there is a secret to this amazing accomplishment. What is it?
Your first major step towards weight loss is to know what success looks like. Specifically, what are your goals, and how will you know you have reached them? What exactly are you trying to accomplish through weight loss? Do you often think about being able to wear a smaller size than you’re currently in? Is there a particular weight goal that you have in mind? Do you just want a healthier body?
Keeping a record of your weight loss via a diary can help you motivate yourself to sticking to your weight loss plan. Implement a weight loss diary in which you can record every food and beverage you consume. Calculate your total calories consumed every day to make sure you’re not over your limit. Record your weight every week in this journal too. Being able to look back on your progress by means of a graph is a great way to stay on track with your weight loss.
If you are blinded by hunger, then you won’t be as conscientious about your food choices. Avert disaster and temptation by carrying a healthy snack bar with you at all times. It’s a lot better to bring your lunch to work or school, than to eat in a restaurant or the cafeteria. Bringing your own lunch will help you resist cravings and give you better control over the calories you eat. Save your waistline and your wallet when you bring your own lunch.
You need exercise and healthy eating habits in order to lose weight. You need to find an exercise plan you enjoy, and do it three or more times per week. If it is difficult for you to get regular exercise, try incorporating exercise into things you normally enjoy doing. Do something physical like hiking or dancing the next time you get together with friends. Sign up for a formal dance class if you already enjoy dancing. If you like hiking, you can go explore several trails near you.
Get rid of all the unhealthy food from your kitchen. Remove all unhealthy choices and you will not give into temptation. The more difficult it is for you to eat junk food, the less likely you are to eat it.
Use your buddies for help. That’s what friends are for. Make sure that you have a support system of people who will cheer you on when things get tough. Good friends push you when you lose motivation. Make sure you reach out to your friends for support.
