Many of us would like to lose weight. Most likely, you at least once made an attempt to lead a healthy lifestyle, go on a diet and go to the gym. Alas, even with an optimistic start, our fighting spirit begins to melt and fades away. Does this mean that you have to put up with being overweight? Not at all!
You need to start with a clear understanding of why you want to lose weight. And do you need to lose weight at all. Some of this is really useless, someone needs to get rid not of weight, but of sagging skin, but there are people who really need to lose weight. So, answer your question "why." Why do you need it? Options can be different: vacation is approaching, and you want to feel comfortable on the beach, decided to charm a nice guy, realized that it’s hard for you to go up to the fifth floor
.There may be several reasons, write them in a nice notebook with a neat underline, or even type the text in electronic form. These notes may be useful to you and those who want to follow your example.
Once you figure out the reasons, start setting the right goal. How many kilograms / centimeters would you like to lose? How much time will you need for this? (Be realistic, losing 8 kg per month is unsafe for your health) What are some ways you will lose weight?
Do not be too lazy to look for what suits you well. If you go to bed late, then not to eat after 18:00 will seem hard labor. And hard labor is not comparable to a happy life. Do not go against yourself, but towards yourself. Connect the methods of losing weight with your hobbies and interests. You can even combine sports with entertainment or self-education. Who is stopping you from watching your favorite series / listening to an audio lecture while you spin the hoop or pedals of an exercise bike? The same series can create additional motivation.
Think about your health. Your doctor has not yet recommended you lose weight? Excess weight affects not only our self-esteem (some managed to give a damn about him), but also leads to serious diseases such as diabetes, obesity and arrhythmia. What seemed like horror stories yesterday will be a medical record tomorrow
If you do not take action.
Pay attention to how “light” people are easy to climb. The absence of extra bags of fat in your body will give you energy. How great it is to flutter all day like a butterfly, and not drag your fat carcass with all its might. Remember that extra pounds increase fatigue. Having lost weight, you can do much more, and feel much better at the same time!
You can not focus solely on the assessment of others. There can always be a mischievous critic who will ruin the mood. But still
.How do you feel in the company of slender friends? What eyes will a former guy who accidentally met in the park look at you? What will your friends think of with whom you have not seen for several years? I think that admiring glances will please you no less than cakes.
Do you have any favorite jeans that you stopped wearing? If there is, then fine; if not, buy it! Reconcile this outfit periodically. This amazing process from “hopelessly small” to “cheers, sat perfectly” itself will bring a lot of pleasure. Weight can go away slowly, but you will definitely notice changes in volumes using this method. Measure and be proud of the results.
Willpower is a by-product that you can acquire in the process of losing weight. Some train it specially with a variety of techniques, and you get it in the kit. Persistent continuation of training and the rejection of forbidden goodies will teach you better self-control, and you can use it in many different areas of your life.
Do not burn yourself as a victim of a diet. Lack of movement and the presence of harmful culinary preferences are not a privilege, the loss of which must be mourned, but a load from which you have a chance to free yourself. Note that your thin girlfriend can eat any number of cakes and chips - she still does not get fat, but she, like you, runs the risk of diabetes.
Make a collage of magazine clippings. On the left side, place the images of your favorite high-calorie goodies, and on the right - photos of slender fit girls. In the middle, write the word “OR” in capital letters, and below, “The choice is yours!” Hang your work on the refrigerator door and make informed decisions in a rush to eat.
