Let’s face it, unless you’re extremely disciplined long term diets fail! Why?
I don’t think it’s because of the same old boring food day in day out or the constant checking of the scales, I think it’s down to mindset!
We get wrapped up in the idea of “If I eat that my diet is ruined” or the famous one liner “I’ll start again tomorrow!” as they are reaching for a cream cake!
People fool themselves into thinking they are doing well but in reality they say “I’ll start again tomorrow!” every day of the week then when they do check their weight they are disheartened feel sorry for themselves and more than likely jump on the junk food train! Most days I eat strict but when I fancy a pizza or my current junk food obsession (pop tarts) I have it because 80% of the time I’m eating well and my calories for the week are still on target and you can’t get fat in a day!
Some people find it difficult to stay on track and I totally understand as I’ve been there as we are only human and crave sweet things, which brings me on to my next topic “Slimming Clubs!”
They are good for people who tend to stray now and again and need the motivation to keep on track and I also think it’s always a good idea to exchange success stories and to encourage people so they leave with their head held high thinking “I can do this!”
What I don’t like about these clubs is that they peddle their wares and the people who attend happily throw their money away buying the sweets and chocolate claiming its fat free! 
Yes it maybe fat free but it’s full of sugar instead! That’s why they taste so good!
Companies say their products are fat free and they probably are but as soon as people see that they assume it’s good for them and ignore any other nutritional information!
Now please watch where you step as I’m about to drop some knowledge:
“Fat doesn’t make you fat! “
I know what you’re thinking.....................
I’ll go into detail in part 2 about what makes you fat and how to get away from the diet way of life which I’ll be posting early next week!
