5. Use OBJECTIVE MEASUREMENT TOOLS to track your progress.

You know the saying, "What gets measured gets done." Well it's the same with your diet or weight loss program. If you don't objectively and periodically measure your progress, you're setting yourself up for major disappointment at the end of your diet or weight loss program. It is better if you know upfront and early on if you're falling behind so that you can make the necessary adjustments and reap the desired goal/result.

Measuring with different scales will leave you with frustrating, fluctuating weight readings. So, if you don't already have one, buy a reliable bathroom scale and a small notepad, so that you can measure your weight loss progress for yourself and record it. Additionally, always measure your weight at the same time of day in order to get an accurate and consistent reading. For example, weigh yourself before breakfast or before going to bed.

6. Properly SPACE your Progress MILESTONES.

In one of the Simpsons' series, the family is taking a trip someplace. From the back seat, the children keep yelling at their parents, "Are we there yet?... Are we there yet?... ," every few minutes causing grave distress to the parents. Your bathroom scale will be as frustrated with your "Are we there yet?" attitude, if you climb it too often to measure progress. Really, although your bathroom scale won't get pissed with you, you'll only frustrate yourself and erode your confidence in achieving your desired weight loss goal. So a realistic time span of one (1) week between measurements is recommended as opposed to everyday.



7. DRINK your 8 Glasses of WATER Daily.

So you have the best diet program, top health products, you've bought a good bathroom scale but you feel lousy. Guess what!! You need to drink your recommended daily dosage of water to keep hydrated, cleanse and flush your system of the fat and toxins you're shedding in your diet or weight loss program.

8. WATCH What You Eat, Your Portions and Your Mix of Foods.

In a typical choir, four (4) principal voice types - Soprano, Alto, Tenor & Bass - are necessary to bring full tonal quality to the choir. Then there must be the right number of voices in each voice type to ensure there is a nice musical blend and harmony when all the voices come together. Likewise, you need to eat from ALL the five (5) major food groups - Grains, Vegetables, Fruits, Milk, Meat & Beans - in order to provide the perfect blend of nutrients to your body, even while dieting. So a good weight loss or diet programme doesn't stop you from eating. Rather, it advises on better ways of combining and incorporating the five (5) food groups in your cooking and eating to lose fat and maintain a healthy body weight.

9. PAMPER YOURSELF!

That's right!! You heard me! You don't have to feel as though you're doing penance while you diet. Pamper yourself, from head to toes, with some refreshing personal care products, such as fragranced shampoos and conditioners, scented body washes, foot scrubs and/or decadent body lotions. If you just want to keep it simpler and all natural, then look for simple & natural beauty recipes that use everyday products to achieve the same fabulous results. While you massage your scalp, or body or feet, you will also be aiding blood circulation to those parts and sloughing off dead cells to reveal younger and clearer skin cells. And here's the BEST part... you won't add one ounce of fat!
