Set a weekly or monthly reminder to buy healthy food just to make sure that you have sufficient stocks. When there isn’t any stock left, you may think that it is okay to get some unhealthy food Just For Today. It will become a habit if you do this. When the reminder comes, make it a commitment to go to the grocery so that you will not have any excuse to eat something unhealthy.
Set achievable goals. For example, “I will cut down 1 – 2 pounds in a week time”. If you achieve earlier than expected. Congratulations! Do not set goals like “I will cut down 10 pounds in 2 days!”. That is just overdoing it. When you fail to achieve such unrealistic goal, you may feel depress which will halt your weight loss plan and everything you have read and learn will be a waste.
Reward yourself if you have achieve your goal. Not by giving yourself anything unhealthy of course. Buy yourself a nice pair of heels or something.
