4 Habits of Highly Successful Dieters Revealed

By Caroline Monroe


The less calories you intake and the more calories you exert, the more weight you will lose. It seems like an easy equation to follow, but unfortunately for most, it is a tough formula to follow. If you want to lose weight and you want to know the real secrets behind a successful diet, you need to know more than just this formula.


Committing to your diet and exercise program is the number one key to losing weight. The ability to avoid temptations is important, and sticking to an exercise routine and making it a habit, is the number one key to success. Sticking to this tried and true method of weight loss not only is proven by scientist, but by me. These tips are how I was able to lose a great amount of weight, in just 2 weeks.



"Lose 10 pounds in 2 weeks" is a specific goal. "Lose weight" is not. You must be able to be specific in your weight loss goals in order to achieve them. To make them come to reality, you have to be precise and accurate. If you do, you will be amazed at what happens to you and your figure. When you set specific goals, you mind and attitude will change and adapt in order to realize your goal. You will bridge the gap between where you are, and where you want to be.

Sticking to a predetermined meal plan will increase your chances at successful weight loss almost 2 to 3 times based on a recent study. Knowing exactly what to eat and sticking to that plan is a key to weight loss. Instead of going home and looking in the refrigerator for the frozen pizza when you are already hungry, stick to the meal plan. Have a salad and help yourself out.

Staying positive is important. Losing weight fast is not the most easy thing to do so it is important to have a healthy, positive outlook. Be aware though, that being positive and being nieve are closely related and don't think that losing weight will come easy to you. Thinking it will be easy will lower your ability to stay motivated. Stay optimistic, work hard and shoot high in your goals and they will come true.

Flex your self control muscle next time you are eating lunch out. Instead of eating the side of chips at your favorite sandwich shop, order an apple instead. Flexing your self control muscle is a learned thing and full self control doesn't happen overnight. Go slowly and take baby steps and lean how to work out your self-control muscles. Losing weight is just as much in your head as it is in your belly.

Know the formula for successful weight loss. Eat less, and work out more. But know that that is not where it stops. Successful weight loss is 90% habit, motivation and goal setting. If you are able to figure these out then you are well on your way to losing weight fast and keeping it off for good. Stay positive and stay focused and you will have success.
