There are many approaches to fat loss. Some require an astronomical amount of will power, others require manageable amounts of effort. Which approach have you been following?
You see, the main issue here is that a lot of what is recommended commercially can be extremely difficult to implement. And how are you supposed to figure out which system is manageable and sustainable?
So here is how to diet flawlessly:
1. Make things automatic: Once you have to decide between the pleasure food and the healthy salad, the emotional distress kicks in. But what if you never had access to the pleasure food to begin with? In this case, you would never have to make the emotionally difficult decision.
2. Don’t be negative for too long: Not staying in a negative caloric balance for extended periods of time will give you a psychological and physiological break. Your mind will thank you for having some pleasure food every once in a while, and your metabolism won’t crash if you spike it with a surplus of calories.
3. Plan, plan and plan some more: One of the biggest mistakes people make when going on a diet is not planning ahead. This lack of planning leads to hunger and last minute whatever-you-can-find meals. And once hunger sets in your will power will deteriorate. So always have a plan A and a plan B in terms of meal consumption.
4. Obsess over vegetables: The more vegetables you eat, the more weight you will lose. There is no doubt about this fact. Unfortunately, most people do not eat enough vegetables to notice a significant effect. One great way to increase vegetable intake is to have at least 3 salads per day.
5. Focus on patterns not minutiae: If you obsess over counting calories, grams of fat, grams of protein and grams of carbohydrates, you will burn out. Instead, focus on your general eating patterns. This will prevent you from burning out and when you eat healthy, you naturally consume less calories.
Getting in shape doesn’t have to be an insurmountable obstacle. If you are patient and automate the process, you will reach your goals. So don’t wait too long to apply this advice!
