Successful Diet Plan - How to Make Your New Diet Work

3. Setting Realistic Weight Loss Goals - To achieve maximum weight loss results, approach weight loss sensibly. Rather than placing your focus on avoiding certain foods, avoid the following instead:

A daily diet too restrictive in calories;

A diet plan that evokes so much exercise that it's both taxing & brutal on the body - particularly a body in need of dropping a lot of weight;

Fad diets;

Diets that restrict food groups OR one-food type diets;

A diet that is not approved by your doctor or nutritionist.

Tips that will reveal lower numbers on your weight loss scales quicker include:

A diet plan that is realistic & embraces all the food groups that reside within the Official Food Pyramid;

A diet plan that allows sufficient calories so that you don't become a weak, out of energy, worn out, bad-breathed hag while dieting;

A diet plan that allows your favorite foods in moderation - even those Taboo Foods from time-to-time. Taboo Food examples are: ice cream, cupcakes, pies, cookies, gravy and so forth;

An activity plan that is flexible & one that goes hand in hand with your daily schedule.

The bottom line is that when we become too restrictive, our weight loss plan can be recognized by the brain as "Punishment Plan" rather than "Weight Loss Plan". Remember, your brain is smarter than you are; it's capabilities are endless and it has ways of picking up on those repressed vibes and bringing them to your recollection. And when the tummy gets in cahoots with the brain, it can be a bad thing when food is involved. OR, it can be a great thing when the dieter shows them both who is really in control. Mind over matter - and weight loss really does matter.
