There are many people who attempting to lose weight, some
will succeed and others will fail, however the biggest battle for people who
are able to reduce their weight, is often to keep to their ideal weight. Many
people will find that they have soon returned to the weight that they were
before they went on their diet or even that they are actually fatter. This can
of course be very depressive and can result in them losing a lot of their
self-esteem. What is needed is for a permanent solution to their weight
problems.
There are some obvious routes to take in the battle to lose
weight. They would include increasing the amount in which we exercise and
reducing the amount we eat. It is this eating issue that can be the hardest to
control and to reduce as our temptations often get the better of us.
In my opinion what we need to do is to make our house a fat
free zone. If we become hungry and start looking through the cupboards and
notice for example a packet of crisps, it can often be very difficult not to
eat them. Our desire for instant food can become too great and our inner demons
try and convince us that one packet will not hurt. If that packet of crisps had
not been in the cupboard we would have not been put into that position of
temptation and would of course not have been able to eat them.
A number of years ago, when I went about losing my own
excess weight, I decided to remove all of the foods from all of the cupboards
which I was aware that I needed to stop eating. I also removed certain drinks
such as alcoholic drinks which were also something which contributed to my weight problems.
I put into the dustbin all of the takeaway menus that I had and basically
attempted to make it as hard as possible for me to eat or drink anything that I
shouldn’t have been.
When out and about I had to be determined to keep to my diet
and to not be tempted to buy any of these items from the shops etc. This was
not easy to do as I am somebody who loves all of these fatty type foods.
In my weekly food shop I bought far more fruit and
vegetables and was surprised at how quickly my taste buds started to change. I
soon looked forward to eating an apple as an example and the weight slowly but
surely started to reduce.
After a number of months I reached a weight that I was happy
with. My wife stated that I was now able to start eating items such as dry
roasted peanuts, this was a particular favourite of mine. This was possibly
true but could easily result in a return to my old bad habits and of course
weight problems. I decided to stick with the fruit and my cupboards are still
free of those foods which I love to eat but which are not good for my weight.
