| Losing weight is a state of mind.
It involves a conscious choice and a comprehensive plan to achieve
results. Even if nutraceuticals are being used to accelerate weight
loss a little strategy is involved. To determine how committed
you are to your weight loss plan answer the following statements
with a yes or no statement that best describes your opinions.
Then review how to work around the obstacle ••
1) When it comes to weight loss, I prefer fast expedient weight
loss.
•• 2) I’m ready to change my eating behavior
for the rest of my life.
•• 3) I do not need to depend on others for
weight loss support.
•• 4) I’m losing weight because my friends
and family have been giving me a hard time.
•• 5) It is the perfect time in my life to
lose weight now – because there are not any outside distractions
that should impede my success.
Give yourself 25 points for each yes answer
and -1 point for each no answer. Although, there are not any
correct or incorrect answers, review how your viewpoints demonstrate
your weight loss – readiness:
1) Although, losing weight gradually has been
proved as efficacious for the long haul, ideally, target weight
loss is one to two pounds, weekly. In our fast paced society,
slow weight loss maybe agonizing. On the contrary, it does not
matter how fast or slow one loses weight as long as permanent
weight loss is the primary objective.
2) Food behavior modification is the most vital
aspect of weight loss. If you are unwilling to make well-balanced
meals and exercise a part of your daily regimen, then you might
not be ready for weight loss right now.
3) Anytime, you try to manage your weight loss,
one cannot rely on close family or friends for support. People
are successful at weight loss when they are provided with the
support they need. Online weight loss forums offer excellent
resources for moral support.
4) During weight loss it is important to want
to lose weight for yourself versus what society expects of you.
5) If you are traveling on the road for business,
it may not be the best time to launch a weight loss program.
The same applies if you are enduring any other life changes;
such as moving, divorce, family death or any other extenuating
circumstances.
