Diet 1

This isn’t complicated. If you are overweight and you go on a diet, you hurt. It is our obsession with quick fixes that gives us trouble. You can follow any number of popular diets and diet gurus. All of the diet advice about not eating or eating some things and not others probably will work if you are persistent. Eat fewer calories than you expend and the diet works. The problem comes from the cravings. You will be hungry. This is the tough part, the hungry part. When you start to get hungry, your body will tell you that it doesn’t like what is happening and you become grumpy, nervous and irritable. Some around you will be less sympathetic with your quest for thinness and will beg you to eat a cupcake and to stop acting like such a jerk. They will give you permission to eat.

You have to prepare yourself for the inevitable negative consequences of the weight loss process. When you want to lash out, you have to stop and take a breath and envision the new you and all the compliments that will inevitably be showered upon you when you become the leaner you. Here is a mantra;“Nothing tastes better than thin.”

Get in the habit of reading food labels. Eat until you feel full and then stop. In restaurants, order less food or cut your portions in half and take the rest home in a doggy bag. Skip the appetizers and share the desserts. Eating fruits for dessert or snacks is a positive life habit. Be aware that it takes 15-20 minutes for the food you put in your mouth to reach your stomach and register in your brain, so slow down your eating. Wait the 15-20 minutes. Then, you can pat yourself on the back. You will be full sooner than you realize.
