You can feel overwhelmed when you are trying to lose weight. You may lose weight rapidly at first, and then stagnate for a time. When you see people have success, you start to wonder what they did to reach their goals, and what it took to get there. What is their secret to success?
The first thing you need to do when embarking on a weight loss plan is to decide on your goals. In your mind’s eye, what do you want your future to look like because you have lost weight? Are you interested in wearing clothes that are a smaller size? Do you have a goal in mind, with regard to your weight loss? Is it as simple to you as assuring good health for your body?
Keep track of the amount of 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.
When you feel like you are starving, you are more likely to grab the first thing that comes along, even if it happens to be bad for you. In order to avoid this from occurring, prepare some healthy food options to take with you when you go out. Bring lunch from home. Bringing your own lunch will help you resist cravings and give you better control over the calories you eat. It is much cheaper than eating out so you will find that you aren’t only losing weight, but you are helping your wallet!
The most effective way to lose weight is to combine a healthy diet with increased physical activity. It is not necessary to exercise 7 days a week, but you should do so at least 3 or 4. Make exercise fun if you are bored with it. Join a dance club or class, for example, if you already enjoy dancing.
You want to get rid of jink food from any areas you spend a lot of time in, such as your home, your office, and your car. If the food isn’t there you will not be able to eat it. Stock your home, office and other locations where you might eat, with a variety of healthful food selections. Be prepared for sudden snack attacks by having plenty of ready-to-eat foods on hand, such as carrot and celery sticks, fruit, seeds and other nutritious treats.
Ask your friends for help. Your friends are sure to want to help. If you decide to surround yourself with people that are positive and support you in your efforts, you then have a better chance of success in reaching your goals. Good friends push you when you lose motivation. If you feel down or unmotivated, reach out to your friends for support.
