Losing weight definitely can feel impossible at times. At the beginning of a weight loss journey it is easy to be enthusiastic, but after a few days or weeks you can lose motivation. What things make it easy for some people to lose weight and keep it off? How do these people lose weight so successfully? What is the trick?
Initially, plan exactly what you hope to achieve with your weight loss regimen. Is one of your goals to fit into a specific size of attire? Is there a specific weight you are trying to obtain? Do you want to feel better about yourself, be a healthier person and have more strength overall?
Keep track of your weight loss. Maintain a diary which will allow you to track your weight loss progress each week. Use this book to keep track of the food you eat. Hold yourself accountable,and write down each thing that you eat. The act of writing things down may well diminish your desire for excess food.
When you let yourself go too long without eating, you will naturally crave foods that are high in calories and fat. This is a primal instinct that is hard to eliminate. Therefore, it is best to plan each meal in advance. Pack your lunch based off of your plan, instead of dining out. Not only will eating at home save money, but it will also reduce your calorie and fat intake.
The most effective way to lose weight is to combine a healthy diet with increased physical activity. While it is not necessary to exercise on a daily basis, you should do so several times per week. If working out is boring to you, start taking fun things you already enjoy and see how you can mix a bit of exercise with it. Join a dance club or class, for example, if you already enjoy dancing.
If you want to avoid eating junk food, just don’t have any at home. You can’t eat what you don’t have, so keep your kitchen stocked with healthy foods. Keep healthy snacks on hand – fresh fruit, crunchy celery or carrot sticks, anything that appeals to you and is good for your health. Do not purchase foods, like chips or cookies, that will encourage you to overindulge. If you do not have these in your home, you can not indulge in them.
Try to get your friends to encourage and work with you. You have to do the heavy lifting yourself, but there’s nothing like a support network to keep you motivated to lose weight. Know who you will reach out to when you are feeling down and unmotivated. Friends can support you throughout your journey.
