How To Lose Loads of Weight
Imagine getting away from everybody.
No distractions. No work, no alcohol, no take-aways.
A personal chef tending to your exact dietary needs.
A personal trainer kicking your ass.
If this wasn’t enough motivation, imagine a massive cash prize to lose weight.
This is the biggest loser in a nutshell. And it works.
Contestants in shows like these lose on average 128 pounds over the 30 weeks.
All out discipline. No pain no gain. Suffer now, succeed at whatever costs.
The Stop Start of life.
These shows stir something inside.
So you buy that treadmill
You take out the old dusty cook books
Follow Brad Pitt’s killer workout.
Rabbit food three times per day, no booze, that should knock off the spare tyre.
But like all diets after that burst of enthusiasm, life happens.
The kids get sick, pressure picks up in work, sleep slips.
All of a sudden those few glasses of wine become a lot more appealing.
As much as you had your heart set on finally fitting into those t-shirts, it just keeps happening. You just can’t seem to keep up the motivation to stick out your diet for the long haul.
Life can mean Fat.
It’s no wonder shows like the biggest loser achieve so much weight loss in such a short period of time.
I can guarantee you would lose weight too if you were in such extreme circumstances.
Unfortunately though, life tends to interrupt things.
If you’re not sick, you’re exhausted from work, if you’re not exhausted from work, you’re on holiday away from it all.
Remember I said on average contestants lose 130 pounds in the biggest loser.
Did you know though, nearly every contestant regains every last pound.
Every single pound!
The reason being life catches right back up with them as soon as they get home.
All of a sudden the stress of work comes back, bills, the kids.
And just like that the pounds start to creep in.
But yet this is the way we still try to go about losing weight.
We try to purge ourselves within an inch of our lives, only to go right back to the start.
But there is a better way.
Too much, too soon
Reaching your weight loss target is like climbing mount everest.
A long hard journey that takes dedication to see it through.
Imagine though trying to sprint your way up to the top of mount everest, without stopping.
Let’s agree that idea would be a bad idea
And yet this is exactly how you go about trying to lose weight.
You try to be like the biggest loser, upheaving everything.
Removing every scratch of junk food, cutting out every last grain of sugar.
You’re trying to scale the mountain with one sprint.
Inevitably life happens and you find yourself year on year starting a new diet.
It’s like running up the mountain until you are exhausted, only to fall right back down.
This is ridiculous yet, you try it again and again with your diets.
One Step at a Time.
Imagine a different strategy of climbing mount everest.
Instead of trying to climb the mountain as quick as possible, what if your only goal was to try prevent yourself going backwards.
Even if you took only 20 steps in a day that would be a success.
What would happen?
So long as you don’t go backwards you can’t help but reach your goal.
Climbing the fitness mountain
And here-in lies the secret to getting fit and healthy.
For your diet, rather than uprooting everything and trying to scale the mountain in a week, instead focus on where you are on that mountain.
Keep all of your focus on just moving forward.
Instead of changing everything, choose one thing in your life at the moment.
Scaling Health Everest.
Choose any behaviour that will get you towards your health goals.
This could be eating a healthier breakfast.
Now, for 2 weeks make a deliberate effort to ensure you eat a healthy breakfast every morning.
Once you feel you’ve mastered your brekkie decide on something else.
Something like junk food around your lunch.
If you follow this process you climb the mountain slowly.
But unlike extreme diets, you are never in danger of falling off the face of the earth with your plans.
You stick with habits day after day, only moving on when one habit is successful.
All of a sudden, you find yourself at the top of the mountain without needing to sprint as fast.
Without needing to try that cleanse, or try that one piece of celery per day diet, or joining the biggest loser.
Rather you just climb, one step at a time, one meal at a time.
