How To Lose Fat – Hitting a Goal
I like to start out, after a complete look at the main goal is done, with much smaller goals. These goals are used to build momentum. Which is needed in the beginning more so then in the end. You want to motivate your self to keep going. What a better way to do that then to have several mini-goals that a setup to help do just that.
If your goal is to lose 50 pounds in 6 months. Then maybe you should start off with real simple goals to build some speed. Personally I think 50 pounds us not realistic and this is why. Someone that drops 50 pounds of body weight in 6 months will gain some of that back. The drastic change that had to go through was not gently enough for them to maintain that life style. They will slip back to a comfort zone and do the things that go them in trouble in the first place. I would rather see some pick a goal of 20 pounds the first year. Hit that goal and keep the weight off. Then chose to lose another 20 pounds over the next year. This change happens over time and becomes more of a life style change instead of a boot camp approach. Some make drop the 50 and keep it off but the statistics say most will not
Now, if your goal was 20 pound in a 6 months to a year then I think you can do this and keep it off. Break the goal down into smaller parts. 6 into 20 is a 3 and 1/3. Do you think you could commit to dropping 4 pounds a month for the next six months. I think you could and these little goals will add up to the larger goal. For an even smaller or niche goal. Tell your self you will drop 1 pound a week. This is not very hard to do. This could be a simple as cutting back on some snacks that you have between meals. Or just adjusting your diet a little to drop the simple sugars, add some fiber, and complex carbs.
The overall goal is to lose body fat and weight. This is not a race. Slow and steady will win the race here. Keep your self motivated with small motivational goals that make you feel good. I know I feel good when I set a goal and I hit that goal.
