You can do it – we’ll show you how!

* The type of diet plan you choose has less to do with weight loss than the act of 

   sticking to it. 
 

Here are some effective ways to overcome common diet pitfalls

so you can keep your goals and look great all year round!

 1. Remember you’re in charge – Losing weight isn’t about cheesecake; it’s about feeling like you can control your body and your life.  Many people use food as an “I deserve this” treat, but then feel worse later when they can’t fit into their clothes.

 2. Get good support – We all have those “bad influence” friends who tell us we look fine just as we are, then coax us into splitting a dessert that we didn’t even want!    Get a diet buddy who will encourage you and help keep you in line.

 3. Set a goal – It’s easier to create a plan and strategy to achieve that goal.  So if you want to lose 10 kg’s, you can base your meals around that goal accordingly.  Be realistic with your goal.  Visualize yourself at this ideal weight in detail; what it’ll feel like and the clothes you’ll get to wear. It’s a great incentive.

 4. Start small – Want to increase your fruit and veggie intake and cut out all junk food? Don’t try to go cold turkey.  Set a few new rules each week and create a list of No’s.  Throughout, keep a list of what you are eating. 

 5. Get over your excuses – If you knew you’d get R50 000 for sticking to your diet for one day, wouldn’t you do it?  So, if you know you have a big work dinner coming up, stick to your eating plan religiously you’ll feel better for it.

 6. Make yourself accountable – So you slipped and ate half a box of chocolates. What now??  When you break a promise, confess it to someone else, it keeps you honest.  Verbalizing it makes it real and harder to sweep under the rug.

 7. No feeling bad – If you have fallen off track, don’t waste time feeling bad about it.  Acknowledge you went astray, and get back on the wagon.  This is much more empowering and less dramatic.

 8. Know it’s not about dieting - but about keeping a promise to yourself!

 Making promises to yourself and keeping them is the foundation for having what you want in every area of your life. 

 Improving your health energizes your confidence and understanding that you can do well for yourself.

Self-confidence is worth all the junk food in the world.
