There are many ways to sabotage your eating habits when you start a diet and exercise program. I’ve been there and done that. You start out thinking that if you cut your calorie intake and train hard, you will lose the weight and keep it off. Unfortunately, it doesn’t always work that way. nine times out of ten we fail, only to gain weight and return to our sedentary lifestyle.
Are you too fat? I know 5 amazing facts that will help anyone lose weight.
Number 1: Starting with a smaller goal will help you stay motivated.
We have set the bar too high. If you have 60 pounds to lose, don’t start by assuming that you’ll lose all 60 pounds in, say, three months. Start slowly and focus on losing just 5 or 10 pounds. No matter what, at the end of that 5 to 10 pound loss you will feel better. Then you’ll have the energy and motivation to gain another 5 to 10 pounds.
Number 2: Only organically grown foods contain the necessary nutrients that our bodies need to feel full for longer.
Go to your cupboards and fridge and toss out any food that has been processed or contains ingredients you can’t pronounce. Instead, buy organically grown produce. you will be amazed at the difference.
Number 3: You don’t have to exercise 7 days a week.
You have to start slowly again. Walk around the block. Run the treadmill for 5 minutes. After a while, you can devote more time to fitness activities. You need to approach it gradually, otherwise you will quickly get sick of it. Keep the activities to 3-5 times a week.
Number 4: You do not need to purchase diet food to lose weight.
This is an important fact that if followed will help anyone lose weight. The chemicals and additives in diet foods do more harm than good. They do nothing to teach your brain to eat healthier, and they reinforce the idea of a “diet” which can be frustrating.
Number 5: Taking diet pills and nutritional supplements can be dangerous.
Try not to give in to the pharmaceutical companies’ deception that diet pills work. They do not. They can do more harm than help, apart from wasting precious money.
