When you make your resolution, you are excited, motivated, and it seems like there is nothing that can stop you from accomplishing your goal to lose weight.
You stick with eating right and exercising for about a month.
However,
three months into the year, you have pretty much fallen
back into your old habits.
Don`t fret. You need to take on a new mentality.
When making resolutions, people tend to make big, bold proclamations of changes they are going to make. Herein lies the problem.
You are setting yourself up for failure
by dreaming too big - or, expecting too much.
Take it in baby steps. It is fine to set an ultimate goal.
For example, by the end of the year, you will lose 20 pounds.
But, once that goal is set, break it down into steps - reasonable levels you can accomplish.
Here is a
sample guide to follow:
* First, analyze your current diet habits (before the
holiday season started is probably more reasonable).
* Identify one or two problem areas such as drinking too
many sodas or frequenting the candy bowl at work.
* Make your first priority to conquer that habit. Find
better alternative(s) to the problem area(s) you
identified. For example, drinking diet sodas or some other
sugar-free drink instead of regular soda [water is the
healthiest choice!].
* Once you have accomplished that goal, identify another
problem area. For example, you may spend a lot of time on
the road. As a result, you eat several meals from fast food
restaurants.
* Your next priority is to conquer this new problem area while maintaining the first goal. So, if find yourself eating out a lot, make it your goal to make better choices. For example, avoid fried foods or eating hamburgers more than once per week.
Instead, choose grilled chicken breast
without the white sauce or mayonnaise.
* Again, once you accomplish this second goal, move on
to a third.
Continue this way throughout the year each time maintaining the goals set prior to the next. You will find that you are making lifestyle changes that will ultimately get you to your final goal of losing weight.
Best of all, you will be
losing weight through healthy habits that will stick with
you the rest of your life!
