Can’t Stick To Your Diet? Try this…

First of all, most diets HURT your fat loss and toning progress.

I’ve talked about this before, but here’s the extra-short version – most diets are unhealthy and cannot be maintained for more than just a few days or weeks.

You are forced to live in constant deprivation and hunger. You lose weight at first, but end up gaining it back plus some extra fat on top.

There’s no point trying to stick to a stupid diet like that.

So, the first thing to do is to find a sensible diet that you can follow forever without constantly depriving yourself and feeling hungry.

Once you’ve found a smart diet that gets results, nothing happens unless you can STICK with it.

So, let’s talk about that.

The critical moment for sticking with any diet is your first few slip-up. And you WILL have sip-ups.

Most of the women who can’t stick with a diet make one or both of these two mistakes…

>>> Mistake 1

Say you’re following the diet in my [[pre ebookname]] e-book.

But there’s a birthday celebration at the office and all that cake is very tempting. You give in and have a piece of cake or two.

STOP.

This is a critical moment. What you do next can be the difference between a sexy bikini belly or more suffering because you can’t lose the flab.

First, realize that it’s not the cake that’s the problem. The cake is okay. You’re allowed to indulge sometimes.

It’s what happens after the cake that causes most of the damage.

Usually, the guilt kicks-in and you start saying all kinds of negative (and untrue) things to yourself.

Things like:

“I suck. I have no self-control. I’m doomed to be fat forever.”

And on and on, all because of one little diet setback.

Before you even considered it, you decided that the cause of the setback is PERMANENT.

You decided that it will persist and always be there to affect your life.

You decided not only that you had a setback in that particular situation, but that you’ll ALWAYS have setbacks.

This is SELF-DESTRUCTIVE. Here’s what you should do instead…

See your slip up for what it truly is: a single instance of a diet setback that will NOT determine your future.

Be nice to yourself: You slipped up once, but that doesn’t mean you’ll always slip up.

Besides, with a sensible diet, there should be room for a few slip-ups each week.

Nobody’s perfect.

>>> Mistake 2

Here’s the other mistake you can make…

Say you ate that cake. The natural thing most women want to do is try to eat as little as possible at their next meal to make up for the calories they ate earlier.

Sometimes they even want to SKIP the next meal completely.

I know it seems to make sense, but don’t do this! Here’s why…

It will just put your further off-track.

When you eat too little or skip meals, you stress your body. Your body responds by releasing stress hormones and this creates cravings.

Eventually it will turn up the cravings so high that you won’t be able to resist and it will end in a binge.

The next time you have the slip-up and eat the cake, don’t stress it and at your next meal. Just eat exactly what you would have eaten if you never had the cake.
