How come so many people fail at losing weight? There is nothing more frustrating rather than observe that you are gaining weight again. Maintain a situation to benefit from your failure. It pays to be prepared, knowing that comes down to plain, hard work. It's not usually glamorous. It isn't always exciting. It's not always fun.
When you are prepared, you have to develop a idea to get back on track immediately without beating yourself up and devastating your self-esteem. My game plan is taking it a bite each time. What's yours? Maybe it's taking it a day at a time, going back to your diet tomorrow. Maybe it's getting angry and becoming more determined than ever to ensure success.
Have you been in a Weight Watchers or TOPS meeting and noticed several people there who're slim and trim? What about those Jenny Craig and Nutrition/System ad's with their both before and after pictures? They make slimming down look so effortless; bear in mind, in reality, these people have been dieting for years.
Without effort and action, you will not succeed. You cannot wish excess fat away. You must work at it and be prepared for those times when you slip, so you can pick yourself up, dust yourself off, and move on...Slimming down demands preparation, effort and commitment to come to fruition.Losing Weight takes effort. So why do so many people fail at losing weight? Could it be because they are lazy? No. Is it because they are enslaved by food? No. Is it because they aren't good at exercising? No. Failure at weight reduction stems from a few main factors:
People don't truly understand the perils of being overweight. Why do most want to lose weight? Most would say to look better. Looking better is really an advantage of losing weight, but this shouldn't be the sole reason to lose weight. There is a 1000 pound gorilla within the room and it's often ignored. Being overweight for a long time of time kills hundreds of people annually. A large number of studies have shown and proven without any doubt that losing body fat will improve and lengthen your life. Understanding the risks of being overweight is a tremendous motivator not only to loses fat, but to maintain it off.
People don't commit to permanent lifestyle changes. A lot of people think of a "diet" as something temporary. When they are on a "diet" they restrict themselves so much that they are miserable. Sooner or later failure is inevitable because of the unreasonable demands of most "diets." Some of these diets force you to only eat particular foods (e.g., no carbs, special soups etc) you have probably tried them before. The key to losing weight long term is to make gradual lifestyle changes you can stick to forever.
Most people don't understand they are constantly either gaining fat, or losing fat. There is no in-between. Some people justify bringing or giving up because they hit a small road-block. This isn't an all or nothing game. As an example, when I was overweight, if I ate an unhealthy lunch, I'd go ahead and eat an unhealthy dinner since I already "messed up" the day. Or I'd say, I'll start eating healthy on Monday since I've already eaten poorly this weekend. All people at times eats too much. The successful people will not let a road bump completely derail their entire lifestyle change. If you are not implementing positive lifestyle changes and losing weight, you are gaining weight. Again, there is no "in-between."

This isn't an all or nothing game. For example, when I was overweight, if I ate a poor lunch, I'd go ahead and eat an unhealthy dinner since I already "messed up" the day. Or I'd say, I'll start eating healthy on Monday since I've already eaten poorly this weekend. Every person at times eats too much. The successful people will not let a road bump completely derail their entire lifestyle change. If you are not implementing positive lifestyle changes and losing weight, you are gaining weight. Again, there is absolutely no "in-between." Most individuals do not realize the things they consume each day. A lot of overweight people eat thousands of extra calories and fat without realizing it. It's difficult to know if you are gaining weight or losing weight each day unless you are keeping an eye on what you're consuming.
