| 5 STEPS TO
A SUCCESSFUL DIET |
"DIET" IS NOT A 4-LETTER
WORD!
The word "diet" has
gotten a bad rap. We
have even given it new names like: "weight loss",
"weight management" or "change in lifestyle"...BUT
we still struggle.
Most everyone has had some
negative experience(s) with dieting...complicated, temptations,
"cheating"....poor results OR NO results.
The real truth is A DIET CAN BE
SUCCESSFUL. No matter
what name we give it. A diet
should have realistic goals, be simple yet flexible, nutritious...BUT
wait....more on
that in the next section.

THE MOST
IMPORTANT
STEP
1 YOUR WHY! |
FIRST you need to determine YOUR
WHY! Wanting to lose weight, look
better, impress your old classmates, etc may not be enough motivation...has it worked before?
YOUR WHY must be so important to
you, that you will sacrifice almost anything (including sodas &
chips) to achieve it. YOUR WHY must be too important to be
postponed or delayed any longer.
YOUR WHY has to be something
REALLY worthwhile!
AS an example, my WHY is: my
wife, my children and my grandchildren. Also to be able to enjoy
gardening, woodworking and other activities without "aches &
pains".
You need to stop and consider what
would drive you, motivate you, push you on just by thinking about it.
STOP RIGHT HERE!
Do not proceed until you determine
YOUR WHY! When you have YOUR
WHY firmly written in stone........write it down, post a picture of it,
focus on it, visualize it, thirst for it.......NOW GO AFTER IT!
