1. Have a Specific Plan & Goal<\/h2>\n

If you say ‘I’m just going to eat healthy’, you’re less likely to succeed than if you have a specific diet or somekind of specific guidelines.<\/p>\n

Nail down what you can’t eat e.g. sugar<\/p>\n

Have a shopping list. You need to start your diet when you’re doing the food shopping. So don’t shop whilst you’re hungry!<\/p>\n

\"sweet
Sweet Potatoes are one of the most nutritious sources of carbs<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

2. Take Ownership<\/strong><\/h2>\n

More than likely, whilst your on your diet:<\/p>\n

    \n
  • Work colleagues will bring in unhealthy food & pressurise you to eat it<\/li>\n
  • People will question your motives for being on a diet<\/li>\n
  • People will .be quite critical of you – you’ll make them feel insecure if you start to see success<\/li>\n
  • Your family will still eat what they want<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n

    You can’t blame colleagues or family or people\/bellends for any diet failure. Prepare some go-to responses if you have to.<\/p>\n

    Like “I’m on a diet because I have problems with my self esteem, it would mean a lot of you were supportive”<\/p>\n

    The opposite of taking ownership is helplessness, or ‘learned helplessness’ AKA playing the victim. Don’t blame other people for anything, unless someone is pointing a gun to your head – you made the decision, not anybody else.<\/p>\n
