| 4 Tips for Lasting Weight Loss |
Hello,
Everyone can agree on one thing and that is actions leads to
results, and an action repeated over a long enough time frame will eventually
form a habit. As the old computer adage goes; garbage in, garbage out,
therefore if we have bad fat burning habits we invariably experience bad
results in our weight loss!
For example, if an individual were to have the habit of going to
the gym for 30 minutes a day after work, eventually they would start seeing
some good weight loss results, such as losing a few pounds. The
real question then is for how long the habit in question has been in use for,
because obviously a person couldn't spend 6 hours at the gym and see any
results in one day!
Here are 4 tips on building sustainable weight loss habits:
Building confidence
Past experiences, the ones and the bad ones are just learning
opportunities for an individual to improve themselves. Consider what was
learned from the experience and what actions can be taken in order to make an
improvement. Plans can then be made in order to start forming the new habits
that will lead to greater weight
loss success.
Routines
Sticking to any sort of weight loss
program will be easier it is a part of a routine that you don't have to think
about. Just think of someone gets to being overweight in the first place, they
don't consciously think over indulging in unhealthy foods. Make sure that your
weight loss routine is one that you can perform over the long, and not just
some fad that will lasts a week.
When it comes to routines, success breeds success, so the more
'little' victories you have the easier it will become to create bigger
victories. Another tip would be to set realistic goals, after all if they
aren't believable you are less likely to even start!
Addition not subtraction
It is harder to lose weight if you are focusing on all
the things that you are giving up on especially if you are giving up on some of
your favorite food. So it is my advice that you rather start
focusing in some of the things you are adding to your life like, feeling fit,
strong and healthier! Also make sure that you always celebrate all of your
victories in order to build momentum towards your healthier lifestyle.
Personalize your weight loss routines
The more your weight loss program is your own the less likely
you are to 'rebel' against it and quit on your diet! Make sure also that you
add a 'cheat meal' into your routine at least once a week because after all you
need to enjoy yourself a little as well. Do whatever it takes, within reason,
to make your weight loss routine sustainable and pleasurable!
It's always important to think long-term in-order for you to not
only burn the fat off but also, more importantly, keep it off. Just remember to
take little steps in order to keep your weight loss as manageable as possible!
Till next time!
