10 Ways to Stay Motivated on a Diet ...

It’s normal to lose interest a few weeks into a diet, but how do you keep yourself motivated? Here’s my favourite ways to keep yourself going…

1. Remember why you are losing weight …

Try to remember what motivated you in the first place. Slimming down for summer, or a holiday? Remind yourself!

2. Plan things …

If you don’t have anything to look forward to, or it just seems too far away, book something sooner! A spa day or a trip to a big nearby town, whatever will motivate you to look your best.

3. See what’s going wrong …

If you’re regularly feeling demotivated, there might be something wrong with your diet plan. Check that it isn’t too strict, or difficult to follow, and that you aren’t feeling deprived.

4. Remember that it won’t happen overnight …

Make sure that you aren’t piling too much pressure on yourself. Losing weight takes a while, so don’t give up!

5. Keep a calendar …

Mark down how far you’ve come on your calendar, and show yourself how far you’ll set yourself back if you give up now. This works really well for me, as it makes it feel like I make progress everyday!

    My mother always told me to stay away from those 4-letter bad words. SO I don’t use that word – diet – ever.

    Xannyyy, something to look forward to (involving WOWing everyone) is a great motivation, too. Are you trying to stick to a diet ... See more for your wedding? But I’m sure you already look great. :)

    That is so funny Meream, because that is exactly what reminds me that it’s time to do something about the extra inches…the way my clothes fit me…..I have been able to maintain the same size ... See more for most of my adult life. I hope to be able to keep it that way.

    What keeps me motivated is the fact that I hate shopping for jeans and that I’d better stay the same size if I want to avoid buying new ones. Hahaha
