When you decide to go on a diet you are very likely to attract a great deal of comment and advice – sometimes much more than you would like. People are always eager to tell you what to do, but how much of the advice you get should you listen to?
There is always the diet of the moment. Someone is bound to have tried it. Have you noticed that people who recommend things often say things are good when in fact they are not? It’s not that they want to do you any harm or to mislead you: mostly they want to justify their decision to themselves.
Stay quiet. Don’t say a word about wanting to lose weight and your life will remain normal and controllable. Mention the fact that you’re going to lose weight and you will be asking for a very pressured life – not what you want when you are going have to jump through several uncomfortable hoops.
The best thing to do is to keep very quiet about your plans. Don’t tell a soul. Just get on with the task of finding the best plan you can.
What are you going to do? The best advice you will ever get, but probably not from your dieting friends, is ‘don’t go on a diet’! This is the best tip of all.
Did you know that the diet industry is worth over $60 billion. It’s huge. Surely it’s right to assume that diets work then? You would think so, but all is not quite as it seems. Diets only deliver short-term weight loss. The majority of people who go on diets never achieve permanent weight loss.
The answer to permanent weight loss is change. If you don’t change you will just carry on as before. Diets don’t teach you to change, which is one of the reasons why the weight comes back. You have to learn new slim habits.
Learning new habits is the only sure fire way of making change. It means that you can learn new eating and lifestyle habits that will be with you forever and it will allow you to take control of your life so that you never have to go on a diet again.
