Losing weight can be such an uphill battle, and sometimes it seems like you will never reach your goals. So many people start off with a great attitude and a fully motivated spirit, but then give up after just a few workouts. Why is it that some people can actually lose the weight and keep it off? How do these people lose weight so successfully? What is the trick?
Before you take any physical exercise actions or commit to any particular diet, you need to convert your general intention to lose weight into a specific goal. Is it your desire to wear clothes in a specific size? 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?
Charting your progress can be a great way to remind yourself of the results you’re getting, and stay motivated. Implement a weight loss diary in which you can record every food and beverage you consume. At the end of the day, total up your calorie intake and see if you are within an acceptable range. Record your weight every week in this journal too. Graphs are very helpful to use in a weight loss diary.
Hunger can affect the way you think, and turn you into a monster! Always keep healthy snacks with you to avoid feeling overly hungry. Sudden hunger can derail any weight loss effort, so keeping snacks handy can prevent an unplanned stop for an unhealthy meal. Planning your meals out and packing a lunch will save you money and help trim your waistline.
Being able to balance healthy eating and exercise is the key to permanent weight loss. It is essential to dedicate yourself to working out no fewer than three times weekly. If this has been where you have failed in the past, plan instead to incorporate exercise into things you already enjoy. If you like having long conversations with your friends, you can go with them for a walk. Consider taking a hike if you love being outside. If you like to dance then go out dancing, but try a new form of dance such as salsa or samba classes.
Eliminate unhealthy food options from all places that you spend time at. If it is not there, you can not be tempted to eat it. Make healthy choices wherever you are eating, be it your home, office, or elsewhere. For the times when you must have a snack, be sure to have fruits, vegetables, nuts and seeds on hand.
Workout with someone you know. If we think no one is paying attention, it can be easy to make excuses and put off our exercising. Working out with friends helps keep you motivated to keep going, especially when you start feeling fatigued or discouraged. You will also have someone to keep you motivated and give you advice about losing weight.
