- Don't cut out all the food you enjoy.
I like the occasional takeaway, but now I save up calories to have one or
earn it. If I restricted myself to just fruit and veg I'd give up very
quickly. I also found that I could still eat my favourite foods if I 'tweak'
them a bit: low fat cheese, low fat spread instead of butter, light
mozzarella etc. Also the best thing I did was get olive oil spray!
- Write everything down.
Even (or especially) on bad/splurge days. It’s only if you write things
down that you know what you are doing. I’m not saying don’t have the
Peking Duck. I am saying, at least know what having the Peking Duck means.
- I find
sticking a wedding
invitation or holiday photograph of destinations I want to
visit in a prominent place in the kitchen. This is a bit more subtle than
a fat photograph of yourself and reminds you when you are tempted.
- Use scales in the kitchen
- it's amazing how easy it is to deceive oneself!
- I think it
is a good idea to buy
some new clothes when you are down a size or two. That
way, you are reminded of what you have achieved and not to go back to old
sizes. Chuck out the old stuff or give it away.
- Life is
too short so build
in treats! Ok my weight loss is nice and slow but I don’t
feel like I am on a diet or that I am depriving myself of anything (including
chocolate and cheese. Lol!!!)
- Be honest with yourself.
Ok, if you go over the required cals, but keep a record, it's the average calorie
intake that matters.
- It is not
rocket science, but I am convinced that exercising is the key to success with
sustained weight loss. I try to vary my routine, including the cross
trainer and walking
regularly, and cycling and swimming occasionally.
- Always measure alcohol consumed
at home carefully, as it is easy to fool yourself.
- Don’t ever give up! You
are going to get bad days/weeks; it happens! Just get straight back on it
and limit the damage.
- Bonus Tips To Lose Weight - my only tip
really is to join up for the WLR 24 hour free
trial and see for yourself. Everyone seems to adapt the site to their
needs and if it
works for me (never had much willpower and exercise was a bad word)
then it has to be worth a try for everyone trying to lose either a few or
a lot of kilos.
