Every human on this planet naturally wishes to be seen as attractive. We all want to look the best and grab the attention of others. But not all of us manage to maintain our body weight and shape.

While running the rat race of career and financial gains, many people mindlessly develop bad eating habits and as a result, put on unnecessary body weight and, then another race begins. The race of losing weight.

The race of losing weight in a quick span of time was actually gained by hampered eating for the last 10 years.

You must understand when you are highly motivated and enthusiastic to eat less and exercise more and lose weight to look the best version of yourself. You are the easiest target for gym owners and sellers of alternative food supplements.

They render assurances that you will be fit as an athlete and handsome like a supermodel in the next few months with their training and supplements they provide, in return they receive huge sums of money from you. However, you have to do all the hard work yourself and resist the craving for your favorite food.

You spent money and invest your time and energies to make it happen. But very soon start lacking the fire you need to proceed further in this tiring journey.

Please stop hurting your body and metabolism by adopting these quick-fix tactics.

It has been proved by many researchers that losing weight is the wrong approach; changing lifestyle is the right one.

Making the following 10 changes in your lifestyle will help you achieve your weight loss targets:

1. WHY POWER – NOT WILL POWER

Find a reason why you want to get rid of the current body shape and extra fat and make it your WHY POWER, as it will keep you driving towards the goal until you make it. WILL POWER is an older and failed concept; it traps you in the loop of self-blame.

2. TUNNEL VISION

We start our weight loss journey and gets fade up somewhere in the middle because we only focus on the number of Kilograms we want to lose every week.

Instead of directing the spotlight on fat loss, develop a whole wellness approach of good health, which may include:

• Adequate Hydration
• Adequate Sleep
• Lack of Substances
• Positive Emotional State

3. LOSING TRACK OF SNACKS

Mindless munching slowly and secretly contributes to weight gain. That is why the vast majority of nutritionists recommend having planned snacks. Eat only healthy snack options, avoid junk and baked stuff. Recommended timings for snacks are:

• 11:oo A.M.
• 5:00 P.M.

4. SKIPPING SNACKS

Analyze your eating routines, if you are a person with a record of having snacks then relying only on three major meals during a day is not a good idea.

By having planned and healthy snacks you will be in total control of your hunger and will lose weight.

5. SIPPING CALORIES

Be aware of the fact that drinking excess juices, sodas, coffee, tea, and other fizzy beverages, add weight.

To stay hydrated you must sip smart i.e. Plain Tap Water.

6. WEIGHING SCALE – YOUR WORST ENEMY

Only weigh your body once a week.

Weighing your body every day can easily demolish your positivity and motivation and you start drowning in the lake of hopelessness.

The most important things to know on the roll are your Body Mass Index (BMI) and Body Measurements.

7.FAT:PROTEIN:CARBS – BALANCE

According to the National Academy of Sciences, USA, an average healthy adult should consume daily calories in the following balance of Fat, Protein, and Carbohydrates:

• 10 to 35 percent of calories from protein
• 20 to 35 percent from fat, and
• 45 to 65 percent from carbohydrates

8. ELIMINATING ONE MAJOR FOOD GROUP

Eliminating a major food group such as (legumes, vegetables, good fats, fiber) is a recipe for disaster. Alongside physical deficiencies, restricted eating also causes physiological setbacks like guilt and anxiety.

9. MEAL TIMINGS

Follow proper meal timings, in another case you may tend to have too many short meals and that will appear as increased numbers on the weighing scale.

10. ELIMINATING CARBS

There are so many famous “Low-Carb” or “No-Carb” diet plans easily available on the internet. But, following them will be the biggest mistake of your life.

Let me tell you why?

Because, your central processing unit, your “Brain” needs 130 grams of carbohydrates every day to properly perform all its functions.

Glucose is the fuel of the human brain and muscles, carbohydrates we supply to our body break down into glucose, which means consuming carbohydrates gives us both physical and mental strength.

Please avoid the above mistakes in your daily routine and live a healthy and happy life, remember weight loss is a slow process that takes time. So be patient, stay in control and let the compound effect do the trick.
