You decided to lose weight and already signed up for fitness and athletics, stopped stuffing your stomach at night, abandoned bad habits. But how to make going to the gym desirable, and changes in the diet painless?
Instruction manual
one
Do not take weight loss as a "fight against excess weight." You do not have to fight with anyone; you need to accept yourself as who you are. Imagine that you see yourself already thinner (s). As bright as possible, without missing a single detail, consider your "new" face, neck, waist, hips - the whole body right down to the fingers and toes. Remember this image in the mind and hold it until one day you see it in the mirror.
2
Remind yourself constantly that you are losing weight every day. If you decide to lose weight, one way or another you will have to change the usual routine of life: monitor the volume of the plate, replace some products, there are more often, but less than usual. Losing weight does not mean starving, so convince yourself that you are able to lose weight even at breakfast, lunch and dinner.
3
If it’s hard for you to give up a glass of ice cream in favor of a bottle of mineral water on a hot day, try to save the money that you were going to spend on a minute temptation as a motivation. It is possible that by the time your figure becomes perfect, it is on them that you will get yourself a new stunning outfit.
4
Find an accomplice as moral reinforcement. Together, it will be easier and more fun to go to training, arrange fruit and vegetable snacks on the grass or in a cafe, cheer on each other, even if no one believes in you. Secretly come up with small (or large) surprises and incentives for each kilogram lost and do not forget to mark each event.
5
Start a personal diary in which write down all the sensations, as well as new "right" dishes, acquaintances, prospects that we have discovered for ourselves during this period. The diary will help you analyze the whole way from the beginning to the finish line and record the result. Paste photos into it, starting from the very first day and ending with your triumph. Perhaps the diary will be a compelling incentive to achieve your other goals.
Useful advice
Do not give up if you have not been able to lose a gram in the past couple of days. Some types of diets or sports exercises do not give a swift effect, but you will not gain weight again in the next day. Any work and path to the goal will be rewarded, if you do not stray from the intended course.
