Difficult
Diets
They Don't
Work
The problem with anything that is too
difficult in our busy lifestyles is the fact that eventually we
will stop doing what we perceive to be too hard and look for
alternatives that are easier.
It's not that we are inclined to
give up when the going gets tough; It is because there are
generally easier alternatives these days due to the advances
that have been made over the years and in particular with
weight loss there have been many advances in both nutrition and
fitness training.
Unfortunately most diets are just
too difficult for people to maintain for any length of time and
that is why the failure rate is so high.
Where there are two alternatives
for you to lose weight (provided of course they are genuine
weight loss opportunities) then you should generally look
towards the easier option as this will be the one that you will
be able to continue using long enough to get your desired
results.
You should not feel as though you
are on a diet because that in itself often means you are
working hard to achieve something.
Just the word diet in itself
instantly strikes fear into the minds of many people because so
many times in the past they have tried various different diets
and not had any long term success.
You should think more in terms of
making small adjustments to your lifestyle as this is a better
alternative than to think you are on a 'diet'.
For many people 'dieting' is
rejected in their minds eye as being something unpleasant that
is hard to endure.
Improving your nutrition and
fitness is not nearly as difficult to maintain as
'dieting'
Focus on lifestyle changes rather
than a reduction in food and you won't feel like you are having
to give something up that you probably
enjoy.
