Weight loss is something that takes effort. You can wake up one morning and expect that because you ate less the night before that all of sudden your going to start dropping weight. Instead before you even begin to diet you need to have the right mindset.
What kind of mindset are we looking for before we begin? First it involves patience. Patience that you realize that in time you will see results by taking it easy at meal time.
Next you need to see the reward. What kind of reward can you expect from weight loss? I can think of many. How about impressing your friends and family. Would you like to see the look on an old flame's face? Or maybe you are looking for a new mate. How about going to the beach and taking your shirt off without feeling embarrassed. These are some good thoughts to put you in the mind set of seeking weight loss.
A buddy will definitely help you too. Someone who is willing to hang out at the gym and has similar weight loss goals to yours. It's also important that you get along with this person. That way you enjoy your exercise sessions.
Cheating is actually a part of dieting. Set one day out of the week that you plan to treat yourself to something you normally should not eat every day. This will help you to avoid an explosion of bad eating habits.
Put some of these tips to use and combine it with a good exercise program. Get a book on dieting and exercise to help you. Read my about author section for programs I recommend.
