It can seem like you will never lose weight. People start out with incredible zeal, which quickly peters out and turns into inactivity. Is there a reason why that doesn’t happen for everybody? There seem to be people who have an easier time keeping off the weight. What do they do that is different?
The first step is to set your weight loss goals. Do you want to fit into your old skinny jeans? Is there a goal you have for losing weight? Is being physically fit and improving your energy level important to you?
Give some thought to establishing a weight loss diary. This can be as simple as recording what foods you eat and noting their effect on your weight loss. After taking notes on all of the foods that you have consumed, you will be able to see what type of progress you have made and change things if needed.
You are going to eat some time during the day; it’s a necessity. Make sure you know what you are going to eat ahead of time. Make your food choices in advance. Keep some healthy snacks on-hand at all times, so that you never feel tempted to binge on something unhealthy. When you are not going out to eat, you save a lot of cash. By planning out your menus and sticking to them, you will succeed at losing weight.
Every weight loss plan must include both a healthy diet and an effective exercise program. Choosing a workout that you find engaging will make it easier to achieve the combination of diet and exercise that results in steady weight loss. If you find it difficult to motivate yourself to exercise, get a buddy to take a walk with you. Get your family out and about and stay active with bike rides and hikes in the woods. You won’t even be aware that you are getting exercise!
Get rid of junk food from anywhere you spend a significant amount of time, including work. If the food isn’t there you will not be able to eat it. Stock your home or office fridge with many different healthy items. Store a bunch of healthy snacks around, such as trail mix, nuts, fruits and vegetables, for those times when you must eat something quickly.
When you are losing weight, having people on your side is so important! While your friends and family cannot lose weight for you, the support they provide is invaluable in keeping you motivated. When you feel like giving up, simply call a supportive friend to find the motivation you need.
