Weight Loss Success Tips

By Chris Robinson

Huge amount of people fail at their weight loss efforts and do it frequently. Normally, these persons try out each and every new dieting strategy and technique and typically it turns into another failure.

Same mistakes are repeated over and over again, that's why people keep failing at their weight loss plans. It's understandable because as a normal human being, you keep ignoring things that don't make you feel comfortable.

Often simple things can help you succeed and reach your target, that's why keep reading and find out what 5 things you need to know to make your weight loss plan work.

1) Make a list of things you eat! Each of them!

Majority considers that diets they have are healthy but same time are surprised why weight isn't coming off. To keep the track of what you eat and find the faulty piece in your diet, write everything down what you eat. Just get yourself a notebook and simply start writing all down.

Everything should be there - sweets, tiny piece of cake, pizza leftover and even thin slice of salami should be added to your list. After running through your list you will be surprised how many diet "friendly" products there can appear.

2) Eat only when you are hungry, drink only when you are thirsty.

Ask yourself "why" every time you reach for food or drink. Ok, water doesn't count. You might eat when you're sad, depressed, happy, tired or for millions of other reasons. If you're bored, go out with friends or watch the movie, if you're tired have a sleep etc. Eat only then when you're hungry and drink when you're thirsty.

3) Do not starve yourself.

From the first view it looks correct; body weight increased because you ate too much and doing complete opposite you will start losing weight. Unfortunately it's wrong. First point against starvation is that you will break sooner or later and then you will eat what you can get (anything). Second thing is that our bodies know how to survive and in the case of emergency they will switch into a power saving mode saving energy and using less of it.

Forget about starvation and start eating healthy meals. Have 3 (better 5) well balanced meals every day and drink plenty of water. Your usual unhealthy snacks replace by healthy options like nuts or fruits and vegetables.

4) Have a treat.

Dieting doesn't mean you have to torture yourself felling depressed and unhappy. You can stay motivated and full of energy by letting yourself to have some of your favourite foods occasionally. Don't have everything at once of course but less healthy treat once a week won't do any harm to your diet.

5) ... and exercising.

You can't get away from exercising if healthy and slim body you're after. It's not that hard to start as you think. Get couple of dumbbells, treadmill and you have everything you need. Start with 5 minutes a day and add more 5 every week. Soon you won't even notice that you're exercising 30 minutes a day. - 17273
