Mistakes I make
Ok, so I have finally found out what has thwarted my weight loss before!
1. Trying to eat way too little- like if I ate too much the day before I'd try to make up for it by eating less the day after. This did not work, because I always binged that night. 2. Binging- I am a binge eater, and I'm working on that. 3. Fad diets- I was always one to try the fad diets, this also led to me binging later on. 4. Starting to exercise too much- When I exercised I would go hardcore the first day which made me not like it and eventually resent exercise. 5. Messing up- Every time I messed up I would always just binge eat, because I would wonder what the point was since I already messed up. 6. Getting to excited- Whenever there was company over I would eat a lot. 7. Restricting myself too much- whenever I was trying to eat healthier I would always make sure that I never ate anything that was 'fattening'. 8. Weighing myself- Whenever I lost a few pounds or gained a few pounds I would eat to celebrate/ accept defeat. I will now only weigh myself twice a month. 9. Not planning ahead- Planning ahead is golden! Sticking to a schedule will help lots! Ok so I'm going to try to work on all of these since I signed up for the 90 day challenge yesterday! Good luck everyone! Two weeks from now I'll tell you how much weight I lost, and I'll update frequently on how well its going. :D:D:D:carrot: |
It's good that you have identified your "mistakes". For me, if I eat a few too many cookies then I'm like "screw it" and then I am off track the rest of the day.
I'm an all or nothing kind of dieter. I, too, am working on it. |
I can definitely identify with some of those.
I "tried" to lose weight many times before but never researched/planned and did it the right way so I never succeeded. I finally got into a weird rut where I thought "I'm always going to be fat, I might as well be happy and enjoy myself" Such self destructive behavior. I love my new healthy life :) |
I can relate with a lot of the points you listed there. It's great that you're aware where you've made your mistakes in the past. I also agree that planning ahead is golden. Good luck with your 90-day challenge! :)
