4 BEST WAYS TO SABOTAGE YOUR DIET
In the seemingly never ending battle to lose weight
, get slimmer and lead a healthier life, people repeatedly sabotage their own intentions. We see it all the time. Someone gets serious about losing weight, goes on some sort of alternative diet for a period of time, slims down some and thereafter proceeds to gain the weight back plus some more. After several such failed attempts, folks just give up on the idea of getting rid of their excess fat and keeping it off. After all, it never really works, right? Right: for the vast majority of dieters. In the end both the frustration and the discouragement levels skyrocket. Although that kind of diet routine is nothing new, it does not have to be that way. It is entirely possible to lose that fat and keep it off without having to be a superhero or a profile in courage and perseverance. So why do most of us fail at dieting? What causes us to either give up in the middle of the process, gain the weight back after we lose it or just plain never get started in the first place? The answer: self-sabotage. We do it to ourselves, without really trying very hard to do so. The fact is, we are good at it, even without practicing. Basically, it all has to do with our habits and attitudes. What follows are four of the most common ways that we sabotage our diet goals and thus our own health and well being. 1. We are what we eat. Most all diets require that we change our food consumption habits and eat only the prescribed foods. Most people can do that: for a while. So we lose some weight and get to the end of the diet. What almost always happens at that point? Exactly, we gradually return to the food we have always eaten. Oops! 2. We do not understand how our bodies function. Our inner workings are on automatic pilot. We pay zero attention to our bodily processes until and unless there is a problem. So we decide to starve ourselves into a slimmer, trimmer look and in the process we so screw up our own metabolism that it becomes a counterproductive force to the weight loss process. Once again we are beating ourselves over the head. 3. Far too often we lack the patience necessary to lose weight permanently. Maybe we have a diet bet with a friend or a class reunion deadline and we want to lose weight in a hurry. Of course it is quite possible to lose some pounds this way but it usually fails to help us keep it off. A gradual process of weight loss that achieves a reduction of just a few pounds per week allows our bodies to adjust to and become comfortable with the change. A 20 pound loss in two weeks is far more difficult to maintain than a 20 pound loss in eight weeks. 4. We fail to reprogram our own perceptions. Understand the power of belief. If we truly believe that we are fat, we can lose that fat but once we are done consciously thinking about our dieting regime, we automatically find a way to get back to where we believe we belong. It is critical to change the perception first. Once done, the excess fat will be gone for good when the diet is completed. In other words, we need to think differently before we can be different. Dieting success is easy to achieve as soon as we stop undermining our own interests. Far too often, we are our own worst enemy. But with the right understanding and the right diet system, we can lose all the weight we want and keep it off for good. Start with changing your perceptions and then use a weight loss program that allows you to continue to eat the food you like, guides you through the process of using your body to burn up fat and provides a routine that leads to gradual weight loss that can go on for as long as you choose. In other words, something that works, is easy to use and is convenient. See you in the mirror!
