4 Habits of Highly Successful Dieters Revealed

By Caroline Monroe


The less calories you intake and the more calories you exert, the more weight you will lose. It seems like an easy equation to follow, but unfortunately for most, it is a tough formula to follow. If you want to lose weight and you want to know the real secrets behind a successful diet, you need to know more than just this formula.

Commitment to yourself and your weight loss goals is important in order to lose weight. You have to be able to avoid junk foods and other temptations that will derail you from your goals. Making weight loss a habit, and not a choice is what sets successful dieters apart from the rest of us. Following the next 4 tips will help set you apart in your ability to lose weight in 2 weeks.

"Lose 10 pounds in 2 weeks" is a specific goal. "Lose weight" is not. You must be able to be specific in your weight loss goals in order to achieve them. To make them come to reality, you have to be precise and accurate. If you do, you will be amazed at what happens to you and your figure. When you set specific goals, you mind and attitude will change and adapt in order to realize your goal. You will bridge the gap between where you are, and where you want to be.

How often have you said, "I'm going to have a salad for dinner", then when you get home and see the food in the refrigerator, you end up microwaving a pizza? All too often I would bet. When you know exactly what you are going to eat, like the salad, weight loss becomes easier. Don't sabotage yourself. Statistically it is shown that you will have a 2 to 3 times higher chance at reaching your weight loss goal if you stick to a Predetermined Meal Plan.

Set the bar high, but not too high that you can't jump over. Remaining optimistic is very important in any difficult task, such as weight loss, but setting the bar too high or too low can hurt you. Know that positivity is essential to getting you to your goal, but make sure your being realistic. Losing weight can be tough and if your not motivated to work hard you may not reach your goals. Set goals, stay positive and work hard.

Strengthen your mind by flexing your "self-control muscle". In order to lose weight and to keep weight off you have to practice restraint. And I do mean practice. Strengthening your self-control muscle is a practiced art and it takes awhile to build up. You don't have to go full on, anti-junk food over night, but instead, opt for an apple instead of your usual bag of chips next time you are at Penera. Small things do add up and self-control is a learned thing. Take baby-steps.

You will have success is you follow these tips. Losing weight is no easy task and not as simple as a formula. Although reducing calories and increasing exercise plays a major role in proper weight loss, the motivation, goal setting and practiced techniques discussed above are what set successful dieters apart from the yo-yo dieters. Keep positive, keep motivated and remain focused on why you are losing weight and you will succeed.
