How do some people lose weight and keep it off while others will drop the weight and seem to keep it off so easily?
And we know you don't want to be the latter group?
Here are some surprisingly easy things that successful dieters do - and you can easily adapt these good habits yourself.
1.) You know that old conventional wisdom that goes "The scale doesn't matter when you're dieting"? For a long time experts scorned the idea of frequent weigh ins, pointing out that the scale can be inaccurate because of fluctuations caused by water weight. Remember, muscle weighs more than fat. So if you're exercising you may be gaining muscle and that will throw the scale off.
However, it turns out that weighing yourself every day is actually an excellent motivator for dieters. A study in the Annals of Behavioral Medicine found that dieters who weighed themselves every day lost the most weight, and kept it off more successfully, compared to a group of dieters who did not weigh themselves regularly.
2.) Write down everything that you eat. When you log everything you eat you will feel MUCH more guilty when you cheat because you have to see it and read it.
3.) Do at least 1 15 minute activity everyday. ANYTHING. Walk your dog, go jogging, do tae bo. Most of us work at desks and sit at home all day - and do it at least a few times a week. You will lose weight quicker and this is one of the big contributors of keeping the weight off.
4.) Plan ahead. If you are going out to dinner with friends or to a holiday office party or even to the movies, what are you going to do when hunger pangs hit? Make sure that you've eaten a filling, non fattening snack or meal beforehand and decide what, if anything, you will eat at the party, movies, or whatever, before you go.
5.) Schedule the occasional indulgence. Most weight loss experts suggest and encourage a cheating day. If you know that you get to eat a small ice cream sundae once a week, or one brownie, or half a cup of pasta, or whatever you are craving, you are much less likely to binge. This can also be a day when you throw in some more activity.
