I will move the mountains?!You have never been particularly disciplined. Driving yourself into some kind of framework for you is something from the realm of fiction. Nevertheless, you savor your new life, make schedules and daily regimes, where with the first roosters you will fight your implacable enemy - excess weight! Moreover, you are so confident in your abilities that even in your thoughts there is no possible failure. And despite the fact that experience tells you otherwise, you don't want to try any other way.
And soon it will be Monday, or the first number, or the day of cosmonautics, or some other milestone for the implementation of your plans. The first day passes more or less successfully. You are definitely satisfied with yourself, and you willingly share your achievements with your friends. A few days pass like this (and for the most persistent - weeks), and all the enthusiasm gradually disappears. Very soon, your old habits take their toll, and your new life is once again postponed indefinitely.
In order not to repeat such mistakes, listen to your experience. Assess your capabilities, and be "merciful" to yourself. The more you torture yourself, the faster and harder the body will fight you back. Take a deliberate approach to weight loss and you're more likely to succeed.
"I lost a kilogram in 2 days! So, I will lose 15 in a month! »Be more careful with arithmetic. In the fight against excess weight, it is better to completely exclude the laws of mathematics, and use them exclusively for counting calories and controlling physical activity. Keep in mind that in the first days you will lose mostly liquid, so you don't need to "roll your lip" for easy weight loss. In addition, the scales may be lying to you. For example, if you weigh yourself on different surfaces, then the scale needle can deviate by several kilograms! On carpet and other soft surfaces, the scales usually show more than on a hard surface (for example, tiles in the bathroom). Moreover, the scales may be faulty. Make sure the scale shows the correct weight. Weigh an object of known mass several times, and if the scales show the correct mass at all weighings,
And then, even the indicators of exact weights should not be taken as the truth in the last instance. Depending on one or another reason, our body either accumulates or gets rid of fluid. Therefore, if you weigh yourself often, the indicators can "jump" back and forth.
I believe in miracles
If you believe in miracles, that's great, but for 300 years Lomonosov has proven that nothing in this world disappears without a trace, and nothing just happens. Oh, these scientists! Therefore, effective weight loss requires an adequate measure on your part. That is, if you have decided that you will lose weight only because you drink tea without sugar, then you are deeply mistaken. A couple of teaspoons of granulated sugar is an insignificant restriction of daily calories, of course, if you are not going to lose weight in your 50s. Therefore, newfangled diets, where you can eat everything and as much as you want, while losing kilogram after kilogram, are a myth that many are willingly tempted by overweight people.
Losing weight is painstaking work on yourself. It's more than just getting rid of extra pounds. Therefore, prepare for difficulties, but do not be afraid of them, because a person is capable of many things.
You will definitely need a motive for conscious action to dramatically change your life. What can be the motive for an overweight person? First of all, it's health and beauty. With each lost kilogram, you will feel lighter, and the distance covered on foot without shortness of breath will increase. With each lost centimeter, your clothes will "fit" more and more elegantly, and you will be more and more attractive. Not enough for you? Of course, everyone may have a lot of other reasons, but let's agree that health and beauty are probably the most valuable things that getting rid of extra pounds will bring us. Therefore, before losing weight set yourself a goal, draw it on a large sheet of paper, and hang it above your desk so that every time it reminds you of the "Everest" you will definitely climb. And do not scold yourself for failures. If you accidentally fall, the most important thing is to get up and go on, and not to continue lying down.
