Keeping Weight Loss Resolutions Each
New Year's day thousands of people make weight loss resolutions.
This is amongst the top resolutions made each new year and 2010 will be no different.
The New Year's Eve parties are over, the holiday shopping and
eating are done and you've decided it's time to shed a few pounds and
created a resolution.The first week you were right on track, eating healthy foods, drinking your water and you even dusted off the treadmill. The second week went well also but you skipped a day of exercising - no big deal. The third week you were starting to grab a potato chip or maybe you were craving some french fries or chocolate. Now your into the fourth week and you are losing all motivation, have forgotten about your resolution or you just don't think you are losing weight fast enough. If this sounds familiar, don't panic. This is a common phenomenon that happens to many people. But just because this happens to many people, don't give up hope on your weight loss resolution. Try these tips to keep you on track and help you reach your goal to lose weight.
Keeping your Weight Loss Resolution Tip #3 Reward yourself along the way. Remember you don’t have to reach your weight loss goals overnight. So as you lose a few pounds or inches, or even if you had a successful week eating healthy and exercising, give yourself a pat on the back and buy something new. Try to stay away from rewarding yourself with food. You don’t want to get in the habit of treating yourself with the wrong foods as this may lead to unwanted pounds or slowing down your goal. Keeping your Resolution Tip #4 Track how you are doing. In addition to re-writing your weight loss goal, tracking your progress is another way to stay constantly reminded of your resolution. So grab a pen and paper and track your progress weekly. Your tracking tool doesn’t have to be anything fancy, but if you want something more electronic, use this weight loss tracking chart. Keeping your Weight Loss Resolution Tip #5 Try again and again and again. Like the old saying goes, if at first you don't succeed......you know the rest. Don't beat yourself up if you stopped your diet or exercise routine. Just make a new resolution and start again. January 1st is not the only day to make goals and resolution. So if it's May and you want to get back on track, start over again - make your resolution - and start losing weight. Here are additional tips to keep your weight loss resolutions.
