If you’re looking to lose weight in 2018 make sure you avoid these 10 worst dieting mistakes. Dieting can be often frustrating. You think you’re doing all the right things but you still can’t get the results you’ve been working for. It takes a toll on your health and even on your emotions. You get tired and begin to lose the will to continue what you started.
We understand. We’ve all been there at one point and we want to help you get through it.
If you’re not achieving what you expected in the program you’ve been following, maybe you’re doing some things wrong. To help guide you into making better choices to induce weight loss in your whole body, take a look at our list of the 9 worst weight loss mistakes you’re possibly making and make the necessary changes now.

1YOU GO SOLO

You’ve made up your mind! You’re going to lose the inches and pounds you need to. We’re happy for you! Piece of advice though – don’t do it alone. Find your team and stick to them.
Having people working with you and rooting for you is both encouraging and helpful. Working out together becomes more enjoyable when you’re doing it with friends. You can also compare results with each other and help push one another when you’re about to compromise. You become accountability partners instantly – boosting each other’s confidence and celebrating every success together.

2YOU EAT IN FRONT OF THE TV

So, you’re done exercising and are ready for your rest and relaxation. You plump up your couch, open the tv and are getting ready to sit and have your meal while watching your favorite show…STOP!
Research has shown that people who have a meal while engaging in another distracting activity end up eating more in the long run. The brain cannot focus on the meal and being satisfied by it and so we miss out on getting that cue. We, in turn, end up eating and eating until we’re stuffed.

3YOU DROP THE WORKOUT

Laziness is not an option. When you’re trying to lose weight, engaging in sports and exercises that will help you sweat and burn calories are key. Not only does it help you rid your body of stored up fats, but it also boosts your metabolism and aides the body in promoting digestion. You build up your muscles which causes you to burn more.
Studies have shown that programs which include regular workout sessions are more effective in promoting weight loss than diets with no exercise involved.
Get off your couch and start moving now!

4YOU’RE PRETTY UNREASONABLE

So, you thought you’d reach your weight goal by now but still haven’t. Your body is screaming rest and your friends keep calling for a night out but you just won’t give. Remember, you need a break as well.
Whether it be taking a day off from exercising and heading to the mall, or maybe enjoying a rich meal with friends – you need that! Got it? Need! Despite not reaching your target yet, it pays to take days off. Not only does it give the body a chance to recover and reenergize, but it destresses your mind as well. Constantly focusing on losing weight can be taxing and a day at the spa or in the movies can be exactly what you need.

5YOU’VE MADE A HABIT OUT OF SKIPPING MEALS

If this has been your strategy to lose more weight or you simply keep forgetting because you just have too much on your plate all the time, it’s time to break the habit. For starters, skipping meals can be detrimental to your health. Your body needs fuel to burn up especially when you’re constantly on the go. You need to keep yourself nourished properly.
Also, it can cause you to become a binger in the long run. If you’ve found yourself snacking unhealthily several times throughout your week, that’s because you skipped that meal you should have had.

6YOU FALL FOR THE HEALTH TRICK

Labels – we always fall for them. Nowadays when we see organic, sugar-free or gluten-free posted on our favorite products, we go nuts over them. We immediately associate them with being healthy and feel we have the right to indulge in them.
Be careful! Being organic or gluten-free does not make them good for your diet. Plus, everything in moderation remember. Read the labels not only in the front of your products but in the back as well.

7YOU BAN CERTAIN FOOD GROUPS FROM YOUR DIET

Unless there’s a medical reason behind you totally removing food groups from your diet, you should reconsider for health reasons. The body needs a certain amount of each nutrient for the body processes to function well. That is gained from having the right amount of the different food groups on your diet. Carbs have a really bad name with dieters; however, they are responsible for healthy brain processes and provide the body with the energy it needs to perform the activities and exercises they engage in.
Rethink your decision. Instead of banning food groups, plan your meals well. There are always healthier options if you choose to see them.

8YOU DINE WHILE DRIVING

Always in a rush? Time to ask for a lunch break extension.
You don’t want to be eating while you drive. Why? Well, for one, that can turn out really bad for you, creating mess not only on your clothes but also in your car. Also, studies have shown that it takes 20 minutes for your tummy to tell your brain your full. Eating while you drive causes you to eat fast and just swallow, not giving your body enough time to send messages to each other. You end up possibly eating more than you need to and therefore gaining weight. If your breaks are too fast, prepare your meals ahead of time.

9YOU SPEED THE PROCESS UP TOO MUCH

The body takes time to warm up and get used to new things – that goes for your workouts as well. If you’re starting on a new routine, build it up little by little. Don’t go full on straight away. You might end up injuring yourself, or worst, damaging one of your parts permanently. Take it a day at a time and you’ll get to where you want to be in no time.

10. A Strange ‘Carb-Trick’ That Melts Up To 1 Pound Each Day

”All this by Flavor-Pairing?” I asked.
I met an old friend for lunch last month and I was super impressed with how good she looked.
She said, “It’s not so much about the Flavor-Pairing, but more about how it re-awakens what the Japanese call, ‘the weight loss doubling molecule’ which signals 22-hour a day fat-burning effect in the female body.”
Even though I was skeptical, I’ve been struggling with my weight over the last few years, so I gave it a shot and watched the same video she did.
Well, it’s only a couple weeks later and you know what they say about how “you can’t transform your body overnight”…
They’re right – it actually took me 16 days to lose 22 pounds.
Now it’s my girlfriends asking ME what I’M doing differently 💅
