Getting rid of extra pounds, as you know, is many times more difficult than acquiring them. Every person who decides to lose weight is faced with a considerable number of temptations - in the form of mouth-watering, but too high-calorie foods. However, it is much easier to go through such obstacles than it seems if you create the necessary motivation, because the main enemy of the losing weight is himself. More precisely, the lack of a corresponding attitude in such a person.
Motivated for luck
Some of the reasons why people seeking to lose weight often fail in such an endeavor are lack of commitment and not too strong motivation. This is obvious, because a person who is really tuned in to any serious result, hardly any obstacle can embarrass and discourage him from a dream.
First of all, for those who seek to lose weight, it is important to realize the existing problems that hinder this endeavor. So, often he is tormented by a kind of internal disagreement. One part of his soul is full of the desire to gain a slender body, and in the other there is a reluctance to limit himself at least in something - for in the minds of many, everything that is associated with getting rid of excess weight is a severe privation.
It is worth destroying such a stereotypical belief in oneself, since it has little in common with reality. Indeed, there are very strict diets that supposedly promise a rapid burning of excess fat, but they just in fact turn out to be ineffective. It is not common for the human body (especially the female one) to lose a lot of extra pounds without serious damage to health. Getting rid of 2-5 kilograms per month is considered normal and painless, but it is quite possible to achieve it without unnecessary restrictions, sometimes even by simply adjusting the diet.
In order to eradicate such myths from your own consciousness, it is not a sin to study the issue of weight loss a little from a scientific point of view. In other words, learn more about how the body can get rid of stored fat and how to achieve certain weight loss. Based on this, it is worth making your own weight loss plan with a weight loss schedule and calculating the calorie intake of the diet - a little lower than what is required by age and other norms - as well as with regular training. You can even keep an appropriate diary, where you enter the initial body weight indicators and those that you want to achieve, and later indicate how successfully you manage to approach them.
To properly motivate yourself, it's best to set realistic parameters. It is absolutely not necessary to set yourself the task of turning into a thin reed for a person who has wide bones and an initial tendency to be overweight. Otherwise, success will be incredibly difficult - virtually impossible - to achieve. Losing weight by a couple of sizes - this will be a completely achievable goal.
Components of the Right Mind
In addition to setting an adequate goal and drawing up a plan based on it (how many kilograms and over what time period it is supposed to lose weight), it is important to deal with other aspects of the mood for getting rid of excess weight. The definition of the most important incentive will play an important role here. This can be, for example, a gorgeous dress or other outfit - in the sizes that a person aspires to. The above thing is not a sin to immediately acquire and periodically admire it, additionally motivating yourself and basking yourself with the thought that soon such a dress will fit.
However, in order to maintain the mood for losing weight, it is also better to acquire some kind of negative incentive. For example, to find your most unsightly photo - one where you can see a bulging tummy and fat folds on the hips and waist. It is not a sin to place this picture in a particularly prominent place, ideally on the refrigerator, so that one glance at it suppresses any inclinations to eat something harmful to the figure.
To maintain a high mood, you should try to cook healthy, but at the same time unusually tasty and excellent-looking food from low-calorie foods. Just one look at it will give a lot of positive emotions, and a person will no longer associate weight loss with only unpleasant sensations and limitations.
It is also necessary to think over for yourself a reward system for the slightest success in the field of getting rid of excess weight. What they will be is the business of the one who is losing weight. It is important to consider only that they are in no way associated with food (for example, with the permission to eat a small cake), otherwise all work will simply go to dust. With the help of the above measures, it will be possible to maintain the correct attitude towards eliminating excess weight and even get joy and pleasure from such a process.
