Weight Loss Success: You have to enjoy your weight loss program if you want success!
Everywhere you look you can’t miss the greatest and latest
“miracle” weight loss program being advertised. Why do people try so many different
programs without long term success? I’ll tell you one of the big reasons… it’s because most weight loss
programs are not enjoyable!
Of course, any weight loss program needs to follow
fundamental nutrition and exercise techniques if you want long term
success. You should also determine
your true body fat composition by using a body fat calculator.
The only way to keep body fat off your body is to make
permanent lifestyle changes. If you
are making temporary changes, the weight loss will also be temporary. Because of this, the lifestyle changes
you make must be tolerable… meaning you shouldn’t have to suffer when you are
losing weight. In fact, you need to
enjoy your program or you simply can’t sustain the weight loss.
You shouldn’t give up all of your favorite foods, or have to
make yourself miserable by only eating special foods. Does this mean you can continue pigging
out on anything? Of course not. But if you completely give up all of you favorites you’ll be
miserable. The key is moderation
and making trade offs. Instead of
going to your local favorite pizza restaurant and eating half a pizza for lunch,
have a couple of slices and cut back a little at dinner.
The next time you start any weight loss program, you need to
ask yourself if you can enjoy it! If not, you’ll give up…. Sooner or later.
