Seek social support

The best way to lose weight successfully depends on a variety of factors including your starting weight, your goals, your nutritional needs, and your own personal preferences. However, there are some general tips that can help almost anyone on their weight loss journey. Here are two of the most important ones:

1. Set realistic goals. If you're 20 pounds overweight, it's unlikely that you'll be able to drop all the excess weight in a month. Slow and steady weight loss of 1-2 pounds per week is much more realistic and sustainable in the long run.

2. Find a form of exercise you enjoy.

To lose weight, first, you need to think about why you need it and adjust your mind to the fact that you will win and you will be able to lose weight. No one else will do it for you

I'd say the best tip that helped me persevere has been to focus on following a new daily habit rather than a long-off goal. Of course the goal is there in the background, but what getting there requires is changing my habits within the simple framework of "today." The reasons behind both the goal and the habits are big ones, like rescuing my health and restoring my self-confidence, but that's not something far off in the future: I make it real every day I practice my new eating habits. I also change the way I think of my new habits: instead of defining them in negative terms (like "I won't overeat" or "I'll give up sugared foods"), I define them in positive terms ("I'll eat proper portions" or "I'll choose protein or fruit snack").

The habit I've chosen is to concentrate on adopting mindful eating each day instead of obsessing with what I'll look like when I reach my goal. Mindful eating in turn means making each meal a grateful ritual, paying attention to what my food looks, smells, and tastes like, exploring where my tongue tastes different types of food, chewing each bite without preparing the next, having no other stimulus like music or TV going on during my meal. It means tuning into my "appestat" (appetite gauge) once again, after having wrecked it years ago, by learning to sense when my body is hungry and when it's satiated. It means deciding with my rational self what I will eat instead of giving in to my impulsive self. It means eating healthy foods (the "what"), only during meals and scheduled snacks (the "when"), and tracking my food and caloric intake (the "how much") so I can learn what normal portions are. Some foods are tricky for me to handle, especially snacks, so I make sure I decide ahead of time exactly how much I will eat and stop when I finish it. Sure, sometimes I want to keep on going and splurge, but someone wiser than me said to be prepared for those inevitable moments with some counter-strategies. So I'm armed with a few psychological strategies, like saying to myself, "Like scratching poison ivy itch, giving in will only make the urge worse" or "If eating more of that is the right thing to do now, it'll still be the right thing to do in 10 minutes, so hang on and make a decision then." That gives my rational mind a chance to enter the picture and calm down my impulsive self. Occasionally, the temptation is almost overwhelming, so I groan or swear out loud, gulp down a couple glasses of water, take deep breaths, and walk briskly around the house or do some jumping jacks, anything to drain or divert those intense -- but momentary -- urges. Each time gets easier as my habits become more natural, less artificial. And in the meantime, I slowly but surely make progress toward my goal.

First of all, eat lots of low-calorie, high-volume fruits and vegetables crowds out other foods that are higher in fat and calories. Stock your kitchen with plenty of fruits and vegetables. Go for the Grain. By substituting whole grains for refined grains like white bread, cakes, cookies, and pretzels, you add much-needed fiber and will fill up faster so you're more likely to eat a reasonable portion. Have protein at every meal and snack. Adding a source of lean or low-fat protein to each meal and snack will help keep you feeling full longer so you're less likely to overeat. Eat breakfast every day. Choose liquid calories wisely. Sweetened drinks pile on the calories, but don't reduce hunger like solid foods do. Satisfy your thirst with water, sparkling water with citrus, skim or low-fat milk, or small portions of 100% fruit juice (it's very important, don't drink packed juice, it's better to buy juicer https://houseandbeyond.org/best-juicer/ and make 100% healthy vitamin juice on your own). Good luck on this severe path
