Today we will discuss two simple steps which will teach you how to lose weight and, better still, we show you why they work every single time they are applied. Most of us hit a wall with our fat loss quest at some point so today's plateau-busting tips will help you reach a new personal best when it comes to your physique.
As fitness instructors we know that there is so much misinformation when it comes to fat loss that it's almost criminal. Particularly online, where people constantly have an agenda to sell a miracle pill or extreme fat reducing product of some kind. These steps today are simple, proven and cost nothing.
There are two easy steps which we would like to teach you today.
Rule Number One - Snack Tubs Are Proven.
Rule Number Two - Take A Day Off.
Most people fall off a diet at least once in their life. Heck, I have known people to do it almost monthly. There is one reason which causes this more than any other and that is the temptation of your favorite junk foods. Normally this happens when you are at your job and don't have any food with you. The vending machine is right there, after all. We've been there before probably just like you have.
Some people crave junk food just because they tell themselves they aren't supposed to have it. We call this forbidden fruit syndrome, and it's a sign of somebody who isn't ready to diet. Others, however, simply lust after the quick fix feeling of hunger satisfaction that comes from scoffing a chocolate bar. Their body doesn't want the food itself, it's more of a mental thing.
The nutritional facts of any of the foods in that vending machine are terrible, so your body is absolutely not longing for that type of food, believe us on that. It's you. It's more of a comfort thing than a hunger thing. You associate it with feeling happy, and you know it.
This week pick up a few relatively small snack boxes from a local department store and pack them with a protein rich food. This will not only keep you satisfied but also help your body to avoid bad fats.
This easy trick is usually enough to eliminate junk food cravings at work completely. Not only do you feel fuller and work more efficiently because your body is actually using the nutrition now, but you also don't want to waste food you prepared at home so you subconsciously force yourself to stick to it.
Our second tip is about taking days off from your new healthy eating regime. Whether you want to or not, it's great for your body and your mental state to take a day off every week or two and allow yourself to eat whatever you want. This is proven to actually increase fat loss results.
If you cut out every food you used to love you will feel like your diet is a complete chore. It becomes the enemy. Mentally you start seeing it as a struggle. This is why so many people fail.
Don't be too hard on yourself. You only want to build a better body, after all. Take a day off each week.
You may eat more calories but not enough to wreck your entire week's progress. You may eat junk food but again not enough to derail an entire week's worth of good eating and exercise. In fact, enjoying your favorite foods on one specific day each week gives you a target every single week, something to look forward to. It helps you stick to your routine without even realizing it.
These two little rules have helped countless people just like you. There are so many people who get lost when wondering how to lose weight it is easy to see why there are so many misleading miracle pill products on the market. Apply these two tips today and you'll never need that stuff ever again.
