How to Lose Weight - If You Fail to Plan, You Plan to Fail

Translating ...

The first question to ask yourself: "Why do you want to lose weight?" Below is a brief list of questions will help you get started:

Is it health reasons? , or just look good? Is it something long term or short term (for example, because you want to look good in front of his ex-colleagues on the Alumni reunion)? If you had to rank your weight loss goals with all your other goals, where does it stand? Number 1? Number 2? Not in top 5 goals? Do your really want to lose those 10 pounds, or do you really want to look less chubby? Maybe you just want to lose that pot belly (or a beer belly) during the summer season the beach? Or you actually aim for those 6-pack abs?

...

On the other hand, might have been bad over-weight and really need to slim down for the annual Christmas dinner with her ​​pesky in-laws. You really can not bear the thought of showing up in front of your mother-in-law with 40-inch waist. In the short term, at least in this weight loss goal is your number one priority in life. It trumps every other consideration. However, you do not care what happens after that annual dinner. In this case you can not afford to follow a more complicated plan. You will be able to achieve its goal with a plan that combines a detailed menu for your daily diet and rigorous set your daily exercise regimen. Maybe some commercial diet such as Atkins, combined with a professional trainer who will monitor your daily exercise.

From my experience, not only do you want to lose weight, you also need a viable plan that is in line with your motivation. Without both the motivation and the proper plan, not a diet program can possibly help you achieve your weight loss goals.
