Follow These 5 Weight Loss Steps Everday
By Robert | April 11, 2009
If you want to achieve weight loss , then these 5 steps will make losing weiht a reality and not just a hopeful wish. Nobody will ever get results just from wishing, unless there is a magic lamp involved.
Get Your Mind Right
So many people forget the most important element about weight loss, their minds. If your mind isn’t focused on your goal, then forget about losing weight. Spend a few minutes each morning on the reasons why losing weight is important to you? What benefit is there for you? How great will you look and feel in 6 months or a year? Imagine these pictures in your mind. Avoid focusing on the difficulty of achieving it. We don’t feel a sense of achievement after reaching easy goals. The harder the goal, the greater the sense of achievement.
Stay With Your Calories
Before starting your weight loss plan, you should have evaluated how many calories you were eating a day on average. You would have cut this number by 10%. Try not to reduce too many, too fast. If after a period of time your results are less obvious, just make another 5% reduction. Remember that your body likes to change in stages, and not overnight. Try to implement too many changes in one go, and your body will fight you. Try to stay above 1500 a day, going below this number is not a healthy option and will result in starvation mode.
Always Eat Breakfast
Never ever miss breakfast. It isn’t called breakfast for no reason. You have been fasting during the night (not getting any nutrients). You will be breaking your fast with the first meal. See what i mean? Break-Fast? So your body is desperate for food first thing in the morning as it has been strved of nutrients for a good number of hours. If you don’t provide your body with these calories, then your body will think that there is a problem. Your abilities to burn calories will slow down and losing weight becomes very difficult. Even if you don’t feel hungry, get into the habit of eating something. Some bananas or a bowl of cereal will do to begin with.
Drink Lots of Water
We are always being told about drinking enough water. 6 glasses, 12 glasses, 18 glasses? I’m not going to get into numbers here, but I will tell you that 70% of your body is actually water. If all this water was removed from your body, you would look like a big potato skin. Only a reduction of water of around 3% can have a negative effect on you. It’s hard to lose weight when you feel like that. Your body needs plenty of water to function effectively. So whatever you are drinking at the moment, increase it by 50%, and see how you feel after a week.
Stick Your Plan Daily
Before you started your diet or weight loss regime, you would have written a plan. I am assuming that you wrote out a plan? The world is run on written plans, that is what creates order and makes the world work (well some of the time at least). If there are no plans to adhere to, then everything would be chaotic. Plans give us steps to follow, like maps. Losing weight is a goal, so it requires a plan, right? You would have written a daily plan every week. You would write down what times you will be eating, what you will be eating, when you will exercise, what exercises you would be doing, and how long for. Ithink you understand this. When you write stuff down, it becomes a real blueprint to follow.
Remember that what other people are telling you comes from their beliefs about themselves, and has nothing to do with you. If other people don’t have any belief in themselves, will not mean that others should have the same beliefs. You are an individual, different to anybody else, so you make up your own beliefs and thoughts. You have the option as to what you let into your head. Tell yourself many times a day that you will succeed, you will finish what you started, if you follow your plan everyday, you will reach your goals. Be positive, accept that you will get negative thoughts now and again, but so what. Allow these liitle thoughts to dift about in your mind, if you refuse to pay any attention to them, they will start to drift away. If other people have found it difficult to lose weight, well, that’s their problem. You can be like them and sit around talking about why you can’t lose weight. Or you can be you, an individual with your own goals, thoughts, and beliefs, who takes action on a daily basis in order to lose weight.
