Dieting for Success. Making it Happen
Control Yourself. Achieve your Goal
Dieting is far too often approached from the mindset of impending failure. Too many people have tried and failed so many diets in their past that they try the next new diet with the absolute knowledge that they will fail in this attempt as well. Guess what? They will.
Henry Ford once said, "If you think you can or think you can't you will always be right".
If you think you are going to fail at this diet you are dooming yourself to failure before you even deprive yourself of the first bite.
Think about that before you begin because only a true masochist could find pleasure in perpetuating this vicious cycle without ever stopping to wonder why none of the other diets have worked for you.
Henry Ford also said, "Failure is only the opportunity to begin again more intelligently".
In case you were wondering we would say his words are quite profound.
Seriously though, if you do not examine the reasons for your failures you are certainly dooming yourself to repeat them and if you are already planning to fail why on earth would you even try?
You are the only person who can take control of your need to eat.
You are the only one who can pay attention and notice when you are eating for emotional fulfillment and when you are eating from necessity. You and you alone can get yourself out of your chair and on your feet.
* You are the only one that can take the responsibility for the condition in which you find yourself.
There are medical exceptions but even in these situations if you are trying diet after diet and failing over and over again then you must at some point in time realize that it is quite likely not the diets that aren't working.
We must all be accountable for our successes and failures in life. It is no different when it comes to dieting.
There are few better feelings in the world than for someone to notice and compliment your efforts. If you are very obese unfortunately, it may take a little more time for people to actually notice the weight you've lost.
Too many men and women give up simply because no one noticed and that is an incredible shame.
Give your dieting practices an opportunity to work before you decide they are a failure and you just might surprise yourself with a roaring success.
The truth is far too few people hold themselves accountable to their dieting and weight loss goals. This means that far too many people are giving up without really ever bothering to give it an effort. If you have an issue holding yourself accountable to your dieting plans, perhaps you would do well to diet with a partner.
This helps you not only set goals but also to meet and exceed challenges along the way.
A partner can also benefit from the partnership as he or she will be challenged and feel the need to perform better than if he or she were dieting alone.
You must hold yourself accountable to your stated dieting and weight loss goals in order to achieve any lasting results. If you have not had dieting success in the past, then perhaps it is time to bring some degree of accountability into the picture and make it happen.
Each bodies need the nutrients we are lacking by not eating the five servings of vegetables and three servings of fruit each day that we should consume.
Our bodies know that something is missing and we feel hungry or deprived.
If we were actually consuming the proper balance of fruits and veggies each day we would find that we were far less likely to feel hungry and desire those foods that aren't as healthy.
This means we would be much more likely to enjoy them in moderation as they should be enjoyed.
Portion control is another problem that we have. We live in a society of "up selling".
Super sized fries and empty calories by the gallon of your favorite cola are offered with almost every fast food meal that can be bought.
The Dieting Mind Set
Learn to know Yourself. And you will achieve the Results for Real
Yes. When it comes to dieting, far too many people set themselves up for failure before they even begin the process. Sad to say but true, far too many would be dieters are planning their first Rocky Road mishap while eating their last bowl of Rocky Road before the big event.
We have no idea why we tend to do this to ourselves but it is something we see in dieters everywhere. The far too popular notion is that one must binge on the foods most loved and enjoyed before beginning the dieting process because these things must be completely eliminated in order to shed those unwanted pounds. If you are honest with yourself, nothing could be further from the truth.
Moderation is simply a concept that many of us are loathe to embrace.
You must change your way of thinking about food and your personal enjoyment of food in order for any diet you embrace to be successful.
Food isn't the enemy. And that is something that not enough people really understand. Even the 'tasty' foods aren't the enemy. The enemy is your personal inability to properly portion the foods you eat. The problem is that the vast majority of us eat the wrong foods far more often than we eat the right foods. This is where the problems lie.
You must learn to say no to these things and avoid situations in which you may feel tempted to partake in these up sized orders.
To be truly successful when dieting you need to embrace the process as building a healthier you rather than depriving yourself of something. Do not think of your weigh loss plan as something negative but rather a positive force in your life to make changes for the better.
When you have negative thoughts do not direct them at your diet. When you feel deprived remind yourself that you are depriving your bones of carrying around that excess weight.
1). Remind yourself that you are depriving your wardrobe of those bulky clothes that are designed to hide the bulges.
2). Remind yourself that you are depriving your body of years of bulges and bringing back the body of your youth.
Do not get so caught up in the dieting process that you forget to enjoy some of the goodies that life has to offer. Watching your weight and counting your calories does not mean that you can never go over your allotment.
The goal however is to find balance. If you learn to portion your food correctly, indulge in moderation, and incorporate enjoyable calorie burning activities into your daily routine you may be amazed at the results.
Dieting for weight loss and health is only depriving if you allow it to be. If you cannot control yourself when it comes to indulging then by all means avoid indulging.

Weight Loss Success Results from Finding the Right Balance of Calories and Exercise
The final step: combine physical exercise with dedication
Maybe you won't like this revelation, but weight loss is not just about changing what you eat, it's also about adding more exercise activities during your week.
Obviously, to achieve results, we need to change our eating habits. So you must stop eating the junk foods and highly processed foods. Replacing them with good, healthy foods.
You need to eat foods that supply you with all the nutrients that are required to keep our bodies healthy.
Before making any changes, We recommend that you start a food and activity journal. In this, you not only write down what you eat, but where, when, and what you were feeling at the time. This will help you will see what triggers your hunger and what satisfies your appetite.
What foods do you routinely shop for? What snacks do you keep in the pantry?
Once you start to see patterns in your journal, you're ready to start taking action.
But keep in mind that deciding to reduce the calories, fat, saturated fat, and sugar in your diet is a big step, and trying to do that at the same time you endeavour to make a drastic change in your physical activity level, may be biting off too much change at one time. Which, sadly, can set you up for failure.
Instead of trying to make all the changes at once, We recommend that you set smaller, more realistic goals for yourself and plan to add in a new challenge each week.
Don't plan to starve yourself, either. This won't help you lose weight. It's much better to eat small, regular meals five or six times a day, so that the body never feels threatened and tempted to hold on to its fat stores. Eating regular meals also helps to maintain your blood sugar at a constant level so that you don't start craving sugary food when your blood sugar levels drop.
Adding fibre to your diet -- such as whole grain cereals, legumes (lentils and beans), vegetables, and fruits -- can help you feel full with fewer calories.
Another great tip: Prepare your meals and snacks at home. This is a great way to save money, eat healthy, and spend time with your family.
When preparing meals, choose low-fat/low-calorie versions of your favorite foods.
Snacks can comprise simple of a piece of fresh fruit, cut raw vegetables, or a container of low-fat yogurt. These are portable and an excellent choice to tide you over until mealtimes. Take these snacks with you for a healthy alternative to chips, cookies, or candy.
As We mentioned earlier, weight loss success also requires that you increase your physical activity. Aim for at least 30 minutes (adults) or 60 minutes (children) of moderate intensity activity for at least three or more days a week.
If you are just starting to be physically active, remember that even small increases provide health benefits.
Check with your physician first, and then start with a few minutes of activity a day and gradually increase, working your way up to 30 minutes.
If you already achieve 30 minutes of moderate-intensity physical activity a day, you can gain even more health benefits by increasing the amount of time that you are physically active or by taking part in more vigorous-intensity activities.
The balance of calories consumed against your activity level will either cause weight loss or gain. The more calories you eat, the more physical you need to be.
For example for every 100 calories you consume and not burn a day, you will gain about 1 pound in a month. That's about 10 pounds in a year.
The bottom line is that to lose weight, you must reduce your calories and increase your physical activity.
