Portion Controlled
5 Hidden Diet Traps
You really do try to watch your diet. You avoid junk food, practice portion control, and even exercise several times a week. But losing weight just seems impossible.
Well, you’re not alone. This is a very common problem. Many dieters try, over and over again, to lose weight, but eventually become so discouraged that they simply give up. Don’t let this happen to you. By understanding some of the common causes of diet failures, you can successfully lose weight, and keep it off.
1) While you might expect help from family or friends, they are not always supportive. Some people seem to be able to eat whatever they want without gaining weight. They tempt you at work or at home with calorie-dense snacks. They don’t appreciate the difficulty of your task. Talk to these people and try to get their help in removing the offending foods.
Even the environment seems to work against you, with junk food advertisements everywhere, fast food restaurants on every corner, huge restaurant portions, and unhealthy snack machines. You must learn to control your environment as much as possible. Stay away from places where you are tempted. Take a look at the nutrition labels before you eat, so that you will know the actual food portion sizes. Packages can be misleading. Bring a healthy snack with you (a piece of fruit or handful of nuts). And try using one of the new portion plates for your meals.
2) Diets don’t take into account your own body, metabolism, habits and lifestyle. They offer a single approach, with no room for individual variations. You can improve your chance of success by using a program personalized specifically for you. A doctor or dietician can help. You can find one locally, or through the Internet. A dietician can act as your coach or trainer, helping you stay on track. They can set up a specific, individualized diet plan.
3) There are hidden calories in many everyday foods. Even foods you think are healthy; for example, fruit juices and many “low-fat” products still have a lot of calories. Surprisingly, a frappuccino coffee can have up to 600 calories! Keep an eye on these hidden sources of calories that may be sabotaging your diet.
4) You must persevere, otherwise you are sure to fail. If you become discouraged too quickly, or cheat too often, then you will not make much real progress. Don’t look for quick weight loss. It is much healthier to lose weight gradually. And it takes time. Don’t give up too soon.
5) Studies show that 95% of people who diet will gain all of the weight back within a few years. Don’t let that happen to you. Healthy weight loss and maintaining a healthy weight for life requires a commitment to changing your lifestyle. It will be necessary to break your old habits, and develop new eating behaviors. Find a diet program that works for you. A portion control plate can not only help you loose weight, but can be used to help keep the weight off.
Success depends on finding the right diet plan for you. According to nutritionists and dieticians, there are several important factors involved in losing and maintaining your weight. If you choose the right foods, limit calories using food portion control, increase your exercise and activity level, and don’t give up, you CAN be successful and achieve a healthy weight for life.
