When it comes to
weight loss, the greatest challenge people face is that of starting. They just
don't have any knowledge of where to start from! If you belong to this class of
people then; this article is for you! It doesn't really matter whether you want
to lose ten or hundred pounds during weight loss process, the tips I am going
to share with you in this article are going to help you in a great way to
achieve your weight-loss plans!
The first step to
successful weight loss is to have some goals in place. Goals should be used in
the same way as thermometer are used to measure temperature. Just as without
any thermometer, you will have no idea of the degree of hotness, without a goal
or plan, you will have no idea of how much work you need to do to shed all the
extra weight!
First you should ask
yourself some questions:
1. How much weight
you want to lose?
2. At what time you expect to lose all the weight?
3. What programs are in place to achieve your weight loss
goals?
4. What are the methods of weight loss exercises you’ll
engage in?
5. What kind of diet you will eat to achieve your goal?
6. What kind of pills and drugs to use for weight loss?
Then write answers
to these questions on a sheet of paper. Oh yeah, before I forget, let me tell
you that writing your goals is one of the surefire ways of making sure that you
never forget them! Write your weight loss goals on a piece of paper, make
copies of that paper, and stick each paper on every place you can easily see
them. This is a great strategy to achieve weight-loss!
Make sure you don't
forget to stick this paper on your refrigerator and kitchen, since it is in
these places that the demon called temptation tries to ruin your weight loss
efforts!
Setting goals is
just not enough; in order to make the goals achievable, you must set REALISTIC
goals. If you have a goal of losing sixty pounds within a couple of weeks or a
month, that is not going to happen. Setting such unrealistic goals for your-self
will nullify the very effect of goal setting for weight loss.
When you set
unrealistic goals and fail to achieve the same, you will be disappointed and
frustrated with yourself and your weight loss efforts.
Ideally, no matter
what you do, you would be able to lose no more than 1-2 pounds during weight
loss regimen per week. So create your goals accordingly. If you want to lose fifty
pounds of weight, it will take you at least six-seven months to achieve the
same!
