Weight loss plan: Success and failures  |  Photo Credit: iStock Images
When it comes to weight loss efforts and plans, we all know the routine drill: Go reasonably and safely calorie deficient, exercise more, say no to junk food, avoid snacking etc.
Losing weight is not an easy task. Avoiding food or skipping meals does not aid in weight loss. Here is a list of some weight loss mistakes that you might be making unconsciously.
But there are times when our best efforts seem to fail in bringing down the numbers on the weighing scales. Now, if one is already of a healthy and acceptable weight, the plateau is good.
But what if one does NOT weigh anywhere between the recommended healthy kilos range and yet cannot lose weight while on a weight loss plan? Aha! That means you must do some troubleshooting.
Maybe you are not doing something right, maybe one or more of your weight loss measures are actually detrimental and grossly wrong.
Get real: Be sure you set realistic health goals for your body, keeping your age, fitness levels, and health in mind. Avoid crash dieting as it may help you to lose weight quickly but harms your body in the long run. One tends to pile on much more than the weight lost when one stops crash dieting, not to mention the health pitfalls of a crash diet. Become comfortable with your body type and your health issues. Lifestyle also makes a lot of difference to the outcome of our weight loss efforts. Be sure that in the process -- you lose only weight, not sleep, or peace of mind or the formula to stay happy.
