How
to Become the Type of Dieter who Succeeds
by Janice Elizabeth Small
Are you the kind of dieter who starts
full of enthusiasm embracing a new plan on day one
yet falling by the wayside a few weeks or months
later?
Or are you a dabbler - someone who tries a bit of
this plan a bit of that and never really gets anywhere?
Or are you someone who gets to your
target weight, more or less keeping to your diet,
and then ditches it with glee only to put all the
weight back on again?
It doesn't matter what type of dieter
you have been in the past, you can be successful
from now on, but you will need a change in approach.
After all, if the ways you've tried to lose weight
and keep it off in previous attempts haven't worked
for you, chances are they never will.
How do the people who succeed at losing
weight actually do it?
Among my coaching clients I have established
four factors that make a huge difference (and you
don't even need a coach to put them in place). You
become the type of dieter who loses weight permanently
by:-
making your mind up to succeed no
matter what
being ready to change your habits for the long term
not just to meet your target weight
having a simple plan to follow that fits in with
your lifestyle and preferences
arranging support by having the right routines and
structure in place and having someone who you know
will be there for you when the going gets tough
With these four elements in place the effort of
losing weight is easier than you might imagine.
For example, if you are absolutely determined to
succeed you don't find it so difficult to choose
healthy food options and to fit more movement into
your life even if you don't want to take formal
exercise. If you are happy to change your habits
for life, you avoid the problem of losing weight
and then putting it all straight back on when you
go back to eating what made you overweight in the
first place. If you have a simple plan, you don't
get bored with counting and calculating, measuring
and weighing food - you make changes which are easier
to maintain. And getting support - from family,
from friends, from the routines and structure you
put in place, simply makes things go more easily,
whatever system you're following.
Think about which of these elements
are missing in the way you are going about losing
weight. What do you need to change to become the
type of dieter who reaches and maintains his or
her target weight and stays there? Increase your
chances of success by making sure these elements
are present in your next weight loss program whatever
way you choose to lose weight.
