Thinking Out of the Diet Box

How to Achieve Weight Loss Success

Vanna successfully lost those 50 pesky pounds only to find them re-attached a short four months later. Unfortunately, a simple step that Vanna excluded in her diet plan could have prevented such. Time for Vanna to begin thinking 'out of the Diet Box'...

Vanna's Excluded Diet Step

There are two types of weight loss:

1. Weight loss followed by weight gain.
2. Weight loss followed by a permanent healthy weight.

Sad but so, most dieters that achieve weight loss tend to regain the lost weight at a rapid pace, with many post-dieters packing on more pounds than they had before the diet. This situation leads us to Vanna's throbbing diet questions:

"Why did I regain my weight after working so hard to achieve weight loss? Why can't I hold on to those skinnier numbers on my weight scales?"

Like so many dieters, Vanna had a dynamite plan when it came to taking off pounds. The reason she regained the weight was because after she lost the unwanted weight, she assumed that her dieting days were over. The good news is that Vanna can achieve permanent weight loss by adding the following Weight Management Step to her next diet plan:

- After weight loss has been achieved Vanna should determine the amount of calories necessary to support her new weight. Examples at Diet Bites can be found here:

Calories Per Day

102-110 pounds | 111-120 pounds | 121-130 pounds | 131-140 pounds | 141-150 pounds
151-160 pounds | 161-170 pounds | 171-180 pounds | 181-190 pounds | 191-200 pounds
201-210 pounds | 211-220 pounds | 221-230 pounds | 231-240 pounds |241-250 pounds

If only we could snap our fingers to achieve weight loss - how wonderful that would be. But weight loss takes a lot of effort and hard work and taking off those unwanted pounds is not nearly as fun as packing them on. With most goals, an individual reaches the goal then is able to relax and concentrate on other things in life. However, in the event of weight loss, an individual must continue to monitor their diet to ensure that the necessary calorie intake matches the new numbers on their weight scales.

It's so easy to fall back into our comfortable, old habits. But in the case of weight loss, doing such is a guarantee for weight gain and after working so hard to take the unwanted pounds off, it's sure worth keeping tabs on the daily diet to ensure that they don't mysteriously reappear a short time later with a few friends in tow.

Other Weight Management Tips

Vanna can also ensure a healthier, thinner body by keeping an activity plan in place. She may also benefit by getting involved in a 'happy hobby' or, in an event that keeps her mind active while at the same time is fun to do.
