7 Tricks How To Stick To Your Decision To Lose Weight

So, you’ve decided to lose weight. You’re changing your
eating habits, you began to exercise… But do you know
what the most difficult part is?

It’s ability to stay on track. Here are few tips that will
help you to stay on track:

1. Remind yourself about your reasons.

Write down all the benefits of loosing weight and review it
on a daily basis. It doesn’t take long, and it will keep
you motivated through the day.

2. Use affirmations

Repeat the positive phrase to yourself whenever you have
chance to or if you need inspiration.

3. Use visualization

Visualize yourself being slim. Imagine how you feel.
Imagine what your friends will say. Use the power of your
imagination to stay on track.

4. Form a success habit.

First, ask yourself what habits it will take to lose
weight. Exercising on a daily basis? Cooking healthy food?

It is the fact that in 30 days you can turn almost anything
into a habit!
ALL of our habits are formed the same way. By doing
something over and over again until it becomes second
nature. So all you have to do to form a new habit is to
repeat the same action over and over again every day during
30 days. After 30 days it will become a habit.

But here is a catch: you can’t afford to skip a single day.
If you do you’ll have to start over again. During first
thirty days, if you miss even a single day of practice
reset your 30-day clock to Day One and start from the
beginning.

5. Find more time for cooking and exercising

If you think you don’t have time for loosing weight, think
again. Do you have time for watching TV? Reading newspapers
or magazines? Chatting with friends? Well, if “yes” than
you definitely have time for weight loss.

You don’t have to eliminate all your activities; you can
just cut back on them. Just trim by 10% the amount of time
you spend on each of your daily activities. And invest the
extra time in loosing weight.

6. Fight the temptation.

It is really very easy. All you have to do is prioritize.
For example, if you see a pack of delicious cookies in the
store and suddenly start craving one, ask yourself: “What
do I want more: to eat this cookie or to have a beautiful
slim body?” Listen to yourself. Is this cookie really so
important to you?

If you’re still craving it use the 10 minute rule. Take
your mind off food for the next 10 minutes. If you’re in a
grocery store go to the book section and pick a very
interesting book instead. Most of the time your craving
will stop.

If not, you can take one serving and give the rest of the
cookies to your neighbor. Or put them somewhere where it
would be a problem for you to get them.
