5 Weight loss tips for keeping the weight off for good.
Losing weight is one thing, but keeping it off is another, and discipline and application are needed if you are to stay at your desired weight.
1. When you have reduced weight, be aware of what you have achieved and remember how long it has taken you to get to your current weight. You surely don't want to ruin all that hard work and effort by reverting back to some bad eating habits.
2. Have a 'then' and 'now' photograph where you can easily see how you looked before you started dieting, and how you look now that you have lost weight. Again, it helps to remember all the hard work it has taken you to get there, so don't be in a hurry to forget, and put the weight back on again.
3. Get rid of your old clothes, the larger ones you wore before you lost weight.
4. I have a favorite belt for my trousers, which I have owned for many years, and which I know should always be fastened on the third hole from the end. Any different from that sets the alarm bells ringing. It's a reliable indicator if I'm putting on too much weight, or losing too much!
3. Try to keep exercising every day.
4. Try to be disciplined about what you eat. It can be very easy to slip back into bad eating habits, especially if you still find yourself thinking about the foods you know you shouldn't eat in excess. There is no magic way of putting off food cravings, other than the motivation to do so.
5. Enjoy a sweet treat now and again. If you eat these kind of foods less often you will appreciate them more as the treats they are.
