I hate weight loss
diets. I really hate the word "diet" in general because it
conjures up all these bad thoughts about restricting your
favorite foods and starvation when life shouldn’t be that
way.
Your life shouldn’t have to revolve
around some whacked out weight loss diet telling you that you
can’t enjoy your favorite foods, or that you have to limit
yourself to some insane number of calories for a month because
you need to "reset" your body.
Most weight loss diets are just a bunch
of lies and myths and their only purpose is to make the author
and publisher money.
But you still want to lose weight, so how
do you stick to a reasonable weight loss diet and not feel
deprived?
I’ve come up with a quick list of 3 easy
to follow weight loss diet tips that will help ease your
mind.
1. Don’t let yourself get
to the point where you feel as though you’re
starving.
All weight loss diets revolve around
restricting the amount of calories you take in. They all differ
in other ways, but restricting calories is the same focal point
in every one of them.
But if you let yourself get to the point
where you feel like your stomach is going to jump out of your
throat and grab some food itself, then you’re probably on the
wrong weight loss diet.
Letting yourself get to that point is a
form of self-sabotage. It will do some things to you
metabolically, which I’m not going to get into, but it will
also affect how you eat the next time you do eat.
Whenever you allow yourself to get to
that point where you feel like you’re starving, your only
thought is "food".
It doesn’t matter what food it is, or
where it comes from, you just want some food.
Unfortunatley, you usually not thinking
clearly at this point in time so you grab whatever sounds the
tastiest to eat. Cookies, bagels, 100 calorie snack packs,
candy, chips, fast food.
Or, you might have a sensible meal
sitting in front of you but you eat it so fast that you didn’t
realize you ate twice the amount you normally would have which
will stall your weight loss diet.
2. The way to stick to #1
is to make sure you always have some fat burning snacks
with you that will keep you on your weight loss
plan.
When I leave my house for the day, I
always make sure I grab some pieces of fruit and a bag of
almonds to keep in the car with me for times when I know I’ll
be hungry.
Or if I know I’m going to be at my office
the whole day, I make sure to keep a big bowl of raw nuts and
raisins along with a couple pieces of fruit.
If you want to succeed with your weight
loss diet, you must be prepared with your fat burning
foods.
You need to plan ahead and know yourself
well enough to know where your weak points are and when you
might stumble.
If you plan those things out in your
weight loss diet, you will succeed.
3. Have a support
system.
You don’t need to have a big cheerleading
section or a "yes man" to succeed with your weight loss diet,
but you need someone who will help keep you honest and sticking
with your goals.
The best person is someone who is trying
to accomplish the same goals you are. That way you can share
ideas and lean on each other when one of you is not feeling
like sticking to your weight loss diet.
That could be a friend, co-worker,
spouse, or family member. It really doesn’t matter, as long as
you can communicate with this person on a regular basis and get
support from them and help each other stick to your weight loss
diet.
Those 3 weight loss diet tips, if you
stick to them, will help you succeed with your fat loss
goals.
