Are you having trouble losing weight, even though you are on a diet? Well, the problem may be stemming from the fact that your diet has a name. Atkins, South Beach, Paleo, or whatever fad diet you can think of is just that; a fad.
See the problem with following a diet plan that has a name is that these diets are by nature a temporary fix to a lifestyle problem. They are not a long term fix for achieving permanent weight loss.
Why?
As soon as you say you are “on a diet”, then that means you will eventually “off” that diet. When that happens, you will soon see the weight you lost come right back.
Instead, I want you to find a long term, lifestyle change to your eating habits. Come up with a plan that you can stick to for the rest of your life as opposed to the next few weeks. If you do that, I promise that you will not only lose weight, but you will be able to keep it off forever as well.
After all, isn’t that the goal?
