Top 3 reasons why people fail to lose weight and how to deal with weight loss better

Top 3 reasons why people fail to lose weight and how to deal with weight loss better
The level of obesity is at an all time high at the moment
especially in America. From statistics collected, the
average weight loss experienced by those who were on a diet
plan were a mere 5-8 pounds annually. To investigate the
matter further, a small survey was carried out on the
subject matter and these three came out as the top reasons
as to why people fail to lose weight with diets:

Let's look at these weight loss dilemmas and deal with them
one by one in order to help you lose weight better, faster
and more efficiently.

1. Low motivation to continue with the diet

When on a diet, it is common to rule out our favorite foods
and drinks. We then stick to healthy foods that we usually
don't really like. With an arrangement like this, it is
very easy to start feeling bored and sick of the same old
boring food. Then they usually start asking, "Why am I
torturing myself like this?" Most dieters can't answer this
question properly! In a nutshell, their intentions to lose
weight is not clear and they don't have enough motivation
to continue with their weight loss journey.

One of the best ways to deal with this problem is to use
the "Cheating Method". Here's what it means...

You need to have an objective which is bigger than weight
loss, something very personal to you. Once you find that
objective, you need to set up a scenario where you can only
get there through losing weight successfully. When you plan
out your weight loss like that, your motivation is no
longer to lose weight but to achieve that bigger goal,
losing weight is just a tool to get there. This is why it's
called "The Cheating Method"

2. By skipping meals, they go hungry faster and pig out on
the next meal

People on a weight loss diet usually eat less or skip
meals. This is where they're wrong. By doing that, they
will eventually feel a lot more hungrier faster and then
they eat more in the next meal. This will definitely
unbalance their food intake and screw up their weight loss
diet.

In order to lose weight, you need to burn calories.
Exercising is by far the best way to go about it but if you
don't exercise regularly, you need to pay extra attention
on the food you eat and how often you eat them. With the
right strategy, your body will receive the right nutrients
to help you lose weight by increasing your metabolism.

Eat 6 small to medium meals a day. Choose high-protein food
like meat and eat a lot of vegetables. When you have 6
meals a day in small and medium portions, you will no
longer suffer hunger prangs and thus, there will not be a
need to pig out on the next meal you get. Also, by
continuously feeding the right nutrients to your body, it
will need to "work harder" in order to process all the food
you consume. This creates a scenario where your body is
constantly working thus you're burning small amounts of
calories even if you're not doing much.

3. When having bad days, they pig out even more

Overweight people tend to have one thing in common, they
pig out when they're in a bad mood. Eating somehow makes
them feel a little better. This is a common phenomenon and
it is a very common problem with people who are overweight.
However, if they have a clear objective in their mind as
discussed above, they would know better that they should
not risk failing their ultimate goal just to make
themselves feel better through a heavy meal.

Instead, find new ways to entertain yourself where eating
is not involved. With practice, you can solve this dilemma
in no time.

So, there you go, top three reasons on why you're not
getting any effective weight loss from dieting and how you
should go about dealing with them. Go on, take these free
tips and get on with your weight loss. I wish you great
weight loss success.

Cheers!
