There are times when weight loss can feel overwhelming. You may be pushing hard to begin with, only to lose steam soon afterwards. 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 do they do to achieve success?
Identifying your most important weight loss goals is the first step in your weight loss program. How much weight do you want to lose? Would you be happier if you were able to wear smaller clothes? Is there a certain weight you wish to achieve? Is your goal just to be healthier?
Consider starting a weight loss diary. This can be as simple as recording what foods you eat and noting their effect on your weight loss. After you’ve written down your food intake, you can compare how much weight you’ve lost to what foods you’ve been eating and make any necessary changes.
If you are hungry, you are not yourself which means having snacks available. Sudden hunger can derail any weight loss effort, so keeping snacks handy can prevent an unplanned stop for an unhealthy meal. Packing a lunch and planning meals ahead of time can also help you save money.
Every weight loss plan must include both a healthy diet and an effective exercise program. You need to keep up your healthy eating plan and exercise regularly in order to keep losing weight, so don’t hesitate to combine working out and having fun. 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!
Eliminate junk food from anywhere that you spend time, such as your home or office. The simple fact is you cannot eat something that is not there. Rather, take steps to make your workspace, household or anyplace you are likely to snack, a health food zone. 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.
The decision to lose weight is yours and yours alone. However, if you ask friends and family for support, the task will be much easier. It is inevitable that you will have low points where you feel frustrated or discouraged and it is at these times that temptations can lead you astray. Do not let your temptations take over, call on a friend who will give you the motivation that you need to stay on the right track.
