Here’s an excerpt from our section on Making It Easy on Yourself to Succeed: 10 Weight Loss Hacks:
Follow these ten painless strategies to get a head start on summer and lose that stubborn winter weight before beach weather arrives on the shores of Lake Michigan.
- Keep your eyes on the prize
One of the best ways to improve your odds of success is to have a consistent reminder of your goal. Whether that means putting a picture of your favorite summer vacation spot on your bathroom mirror, or keeping an old picture of you in the best shape of your life on your phone, it’s a great idea to give yourself a daily reminder of what you’re striving for.
- Clean out your pantry
Eating well is much easier if you don’t have temptation 10 feet away from you at all times. To give yourself a break, throw away all unhealthy foods and restock your pantry with plenty of healthy options you can turn to when you get hungry.
- Treat yourself, but only out of the house
Occasionally, all of us slip up on our diets and eat something that is delicious and not totally healthy. The best thing you can do is accept that this will happen but contain the slip-up by limiting yourself to a one-time treat and only outside of your home. For example, eat a piece of cake at a restaurant or a bakery; don’t buy a whole cake that will linger in your fridge and tempt you until you finish the entire thing.
