Losing weight can be a challenge for many people as the results attained by going on these short term diets usually do not have a lasting effect. Everyone has the same question - how to lose weight? However, the question should be how to lose weight the right and healthy way which will result in a healthier lifestyle and optimal weight that can be managed consistently while incorporating healthier habits. We believe that there is a method to this madness. Losing weight should never be a one-time, short term fix like a 7-day diet. Losing weight should be a hard pressed goal which, when taken seriously, can flourish into a mission for you.
Weight Loss Plan
We encourage our patrons to take weight loss seriously to a point where it becomes a mission where you are mentally prepared to do whatever it takes to stick to your weight loss goals. It’s been said that one must begin with the end in mind while keeping in mind that the end depends on the beginning. What is the end result you seek? What kind of weight loss goal are you ready to set for yourself and commit to it? Are you ready to embark on this rewarding weight loss mission? How will you feel when you finally arrive to your ideal weight and look better than ever? Will that be a driving factor for you to stick to your weight loss goal?
When you are clear about the end result you can then work your way backwards to understand how you should start and what kind of plan you will commit to. Usually people fail to reach their ideal weight is because they are not clear about where they are going or they are not sure about what they need to do to be able to stick to their weight loss mission.
Here is a plan for you on how to lose weight
Step 1 – Decide
When you are ready, make a firm decision to take full control of your weight loss plan. You must visualize the end in mind and know that once you decide to start your weight loss plan then you will do whatever it takes to get to the end result
Step 2 – Plan your meals
Now that you are ready to start, it is important for you to understand where you are and where you want to be, weight wise. Fortunately, there are many online tools available to help you with your weight loss program. You can use any of the available or use our meal planner to get started. A good meal planner will analyze your current weight and caloric intake to give you a clear picture of how many calories you should eat to lose weight, the healthy way. It should also offer you tools to manage your weight loss program and enable you to design your meal plans based on your modified caloric intake limit that will need to consume to get to your desired weight. Use a meal planner to plan your meals for the entire week and make sure to stay within your caloric limit as prescribed by the analysis done on the onset.
Step 3 – Commit
As you begin your weight loss mission, you may find it challenging to adjust to your new caloric limit. For some, it may require a larger calorie deficit to achieve the desired results by the goal date but have faith in the process and commit to stick to your plan. One of the best ways to ensure that you are able to stick to your plans is to give yourself enough time to lose weight. It is best to limit yourself to a maximum loss of two pounds per week and if that means that your new caloric limit is too much to handle then give yourself more time to lose weight and just try to lose only one pound per week. This way, you will never feel that you are dieting, instead, you will simply be adjusting to a new habit of consuming limited calories without having to starve yourself.
Step 4 – Reward yourself
After completing your weight loss mission prepare to reward yourself. This is perhaps something that will give you the motivation to stick to your plan. Just the fact that you will have reached your ideal weight should be a huge reward on its own. However, to make it more exciting, you can plan to reward yourself with something nice for the sacrifices and success you will achieve by sticking to your meal plans. Identify what this reward will be before you begin, this way you will have something to look forward to. You must keep your eyes on the prize and know that something worthwhile awaits you at the end of your journey.
The best part about all this is that by the time you will have arrived at your desired weight, you will have built some new habits and perhaps a refined perspective on foods you eat and the calories you really need to eat to get the right nutrition on a daily basis and lose weight the healthy way. From this point forward, you just need to make sure you continue using the meal planner to make sure you never get sidetracked by temptations. This way, you will always be in control of what you eat and then the maintenance of your new weight will just become automatic. Now that you know how to lose weight, don’t waste any more time before you get started. Yes, you can do it… Get started NOW!
