Sticking to a Diet
Many people start dieting about March and April to get ready for 'bikini season,' but not very many people can actually stick to their diet plan, they get bored and lazy, don't believe in themselves, and many other reasons and 'excuses.' The food on advertisements is never healthy fruit, salads, and water. It's always ice cream, coffee, or greasy fast food, which makes your stomach tell your mind that you are hungry and the human mind often gives in and you end up eating your weight in grease. You than tell yourself, you will run off the fast food you ate, but you never get to it, you feel lagged, and all you want to do is sit down which will lead to watching hours upon hours of television. Well, over time this will add up, and your 'bikini body' will turn into 'sweat-pants only body', and I am certain nobody wants to spend their entire summer wearing sweatshirts, and sweatpants to cover up their muffin top, love handles, and back rolls.
There are many ways you can stick to your diet, and even reward yourself with a small sugary treat every now and then, being sure not to over do it. A few ways to make sure you stick with your diet are;
1. Make a plan of your week plans, and your room to exercise, leaving a good sized gap in case something comes up.
2. Don't give in to your cravings, if you are hungry than wait until you are home, or order something with very few calories from a local fast food restaurant.
3. If you are thirsty, drink water, nothing with flavor or added preservatives.
4. Think of food you can ADD to your diet, not take away.
5. Consider if you are really hungry, or just bored.
6. Enjoy your treats outside of your house, keep them out of the house, if possible, walk to get them.
7. Eat several 'mini-meals' instead of large meals.
8.Eat protein.
9. Add spices, they help fill you up.
10. Swap pasta for vegetables
