You will find out here why most people struggle to lose weight, and why they quickly regain any weight that they lose. You can do much better! You can learn how to lose weight and keep it off for life.
Here’s what most people think when they want to lose weight…
“I’m going to go on a diet and lose some weight”
OR
“I’m going to do some exercise and lose some weight”
While these may sound logical and seem to make sense, they are NOT the best ways of approaching losing weight. Anyone who wants to lose weight is far better to think this…
“I’m going to change my lifestyle”
The results from these ways of thinking are very different
Most people who go on a diet, also expect to come off the diet. It’s a short term way of thinking. They want to lose weight and then go back to their old lifestyle and carry on with their life.
Also, many people who start exercising, hope that they can lose weight and then stop exercising. They also want to lose weight, go back to their old lifestyle, and then carry on with their life.
So what happens?
When people think in these ways they are not fully committed. They don’t really want to be on the diet and they don’t really want to exercise. So they struggle with motivation, don’t put in enough time and effort, and therefore they struggle to lose weight. This is definitely not how to lose weight and keep it off!
Even if they do lose weight, it quickly returns when they go back to their old lifestyle because…
Your weight, health, and fitness are determined by your lifestyle
You cannot do something for weeks or months and then expect the results to last for life.
If you have a poor lifestyle then you get poor results and suffer. If you then improve your lifestyle, you get better results and feel better. But if you go back to a poor lifestyle then you get poor results again.
That’s why losing weight should not be seen as a short term effort where you lose weight and then get on with your life. It should be seen as a long term commitment to improve your lifestyle.
The reality is that it’s much easier to create a healthier lifestyle and then maintain this lifestyle for years… Than it is to keep changing your lifestyle for better or worse, while struggling with your weight year after year.
Also, once you’ve developed your better lifestyle and you are happy with your weight, and you are feeling fitter and healthier, you don’t want to go back. You want to keep eating well and you want to keep exercising because you appreciate everything it does for you and how much better you feel.
You have a choice when deciding how to lose weight and keep it off
Many people don’t want change their lifestyle. They want to eat anything they like and do as little exercise as possible, while at the same time having great health and fitness, and a great looking body. They resist changing their lifestyle because they want everything.
Unfortunately, you can’t have everything. You need to decide which is the most important to you!
You can do what many people do and have a poor lifestyle, but the big price you pay is a lower quality life. You will never be at the weight you want, or have the body, health or fitness that you want.
OR you can embrace a better lifestyle, do the things with exercise and diet that add to your life rather than detract from it, and therefore you receive a happier and higher quality life!
