3 Pitfalls You CAN Steer Clear of in a Calories Loss Diet

by Rowena French

Even with the best of intentions, most people who start a
calories loss diet generally give it up during its early
stages.  They do this because they are unaware of a number
of very common pitfalls that stop them from succeeding in
their quest to lose weight and get healthy. Learning to spot
these early so that you can avoid them or work around them
is a way to make sure that you stay on your diet and reach
your weight loss goals.

Making radical changes to your eating habits happens all the
time on diets, especially fad diets. If you go on a diet
where you can only eat fruit, or only eat protein, or you
must cut out all of one of kind of food it will be very
difficult for you to stay on that diet. When you make
changes to the way you eat you should make them gradually.
If you make an extreme change to the way you eat and you do
it fast then you will deprived and you will start to crave
foods, making it more likely that you will go off your diet.

Aiming for unachievable outcomes happens often, particularly
at the start of your diet when you lose weight at a faster
rate than you will as your diet progresses. Fast weight loss
at the beginning is exciting but this can lure you into a
false sense of expectation because this weight loss is
largely water weight. Health professionals suggest that real
weight loss does not happen as quickly and that you should
only expect to lose a pound or two each week. So if you
expect to lose five pounds or more weekly, you are unlikely
to achieve this.  The sense of disillusionment that this can
bring on may see you quitting your calories loss diet and
returning to the lifestyle that saw you gain weight in the
first place.

Eating food to celebrate your success is a very common
social behavior and food is often at the center of
celebrations both large and small.  Drinks and nibbles on
Friday night to celebrate a challenging week at the office
is an accepted behavior. So if you are serious about your
calories loss diet you need to either avoid these eating and
drinking occasions or join in and enjoy the healthier food
and drink options available. A glass or mineral water has
way less calories than a beer! Another kind of celebration
at the end of the week can include seeing a movie with
friends (without the popcorn). Even something that will last
longer like buying a new pair of shoes is a healthier way to
celebrate without slowing down your weight loss.
