A Few Reasons Why You are not Losing Weight
We all know to make some kind of mistake when it comes to our health, but even if we miss a class at the gym or we decide to treat ourselves with a meal that includes completely wrong foods, all we need to do in order to get back on track is motivation.
Morning problems
Were you planning to go to work only with a cup of coffee, but somehow you found yourself holding a roll in your hands? This is not the reason to lose the entire day. Eat the roll and continue the day as you intended.
Injury in the wrong time
You are doing a good job for weeks – you are regular at the gym and you can witness the results and then all of a sudden an accident happens and you cannot continue with your regular workout routine and you must focus on recovery. Believe us, this is not some kind of cosmic message that you should order a king size pizza and ice cream. Simply replace your regular exercises with some more light exercises and continue to follow the same diet as before.
Alarm clock problem
You’ve set the alarm for the morning exercises, but it seems that your hand has somehow turned the alarm off and thus the chance for recreation is gone. Instead of surrendering, just remind yourself – one missed exercise is not the end of the world. Losing weight is a long-term process and you can catch up during the day or the following morning.
Inevitable exceptions
If you are practicing a healthy diet for more than one week you are probably proud of yourself, but keep in mind that this commitment lasts only when you have control over the menu and sometimes you cannot avoid a lunch with your friends or family. Don’t beat yourself up with such tiny exceptions, but continue with the usual pace as if nothing had happened.
Willpower
You were following “the rules” for the entire day and you have not tasted any “forbidden food”, but then you came home and broke the rules. It happens. Do not consider this to be some fatal failure, but as an opportunity to correct your behavior. Although it might not seem so, you can learn that when you are vulnerable and which type of food makes you weak. The next time you should prepare a healthy food before you go to work and let it greet you once you return to your home.
