Maintaining Your Weight

Thursday, May 30, 2013 ·

Once you’ve lost the weight, you need to learn how to keep it off.  Most people do gain the weight back after they lose it, because they go right back to their old habits.

As you get closer to your goal weight, you will need to start easing into the lifestyle that you will continue for the rest of your life.

You will need to remember to keep cutting out the biggest sources of blood sugar spikes, including sugar, white flour, white rice, and potatoes.  You will need to continue consuming plenty of fresh fruits and vegetables, healthy seafood, and other lean proteins.  And you will need to continue getting some exercise.

Always remember that if you don’t continue the lifestyle, you are doomed to repeat everything you’ve just been through.

You’ll have to deal with the pain of being overweight, the embarrassment you feel when you go out in public, the difficulty losing the weight, the aches, pains, and discomfort of being overweight, and all of those other issues.

That’s something you don’t ever want to have to go through again, right?

Never let go of the things you’re feeling right now.  Never forget the struggle.  Never forget the pain.  Never, ever forget.

Once you let go, once you get past it and you move on, you cannot forget.  If you allow yourself to forget what it was like, you’ll be back on that road to obesity before you know it.

It’s a good idea to keep a lot of photos of yourself before you lost the weight.  Keep a journal of how difficult your dieting is.  Write notes in it about how horrible you feel, how embarrassed you are, how your life is miserable.  Keep all of this together and look at it regularly.

Yes, it will be painful to dredge up those memories of when you were so unhealthy, but it will help you stay healthy.

The emotional pain you feel will be nothing compared to what your friends and family would feel if they lost you because you had a heart attack or stroke due to obesity, or the pain you would feel if you gained all of the weight back.

Keep eating healthily.  Keep exercising.  Keep living the healthiest life possible.

Never, ever forget.
