 6 Reasons Why Diets Fail & What You Can Do About Them.

Add to Flipboard Magazine. October 23, 2016 by Nathan's Fitness ™



When we first start a diet, it’s easy to picture ourselves well on our way to weight-loss success. The reality is that the path to men’s weight-loss success is going to take some hard work. Healthy eating habits and a consistent fitness program are crucial for weight-loss success and long-term health. We’re here to help you along the way to make sure you avoid diet failure. Here are the nine big reasons why diets fail and what you can do about them.

÷  Why Diets Fail:

>> Reason 1: "You’re too impatient "

A lack of patience is a big reason why diets fail. We men like to see results immediately. Just because you turned your diet inside out doesn’t mean you’re suddenly going to become a magazine cover model in a few days. Realistically, you can expect to lose anywhere from 1-2 pounds a week — that’s considered the norm for healthy weight loss. While fad diets may help you lose more faster, you’ll gain the weight back just as fast. The key is to set realistic goals.

>> Reason 2:  "You don’t let yourself make mistakes "

Another big reason why diets fail is that once we make a mistake, we let it that one mistake loom over us and affect the rest of our day. OK, so you gave into your pizza craving and scarfed down half a pie. That’s no excuse to let yourself eat junk food the rest of the day, too — all hope is not lost. Hit the gym, eat smaller portions and move on. The occasional lapse won’t lead to diet failure and affect your weight-loss success. It’s when you let that one mistake spiral into a series of bad decisions that you should start worrying.

Reason #3: You do too much too soon:

 A lot of guys revamp their entire diet the first day they decide to start eating healthier. This is one of the biggest reasons why diets fail. Changing your entire diet on Day 1 is unrealistic because let’s be honest: Your bad eating habits aren’t going to change overnight. You’re better off making gradual changes. Start with one tweak, such as taking a men’s thermogenic formula or replacing a meal with a whey protein shake. Then work your way up from there. The next week, you can cut out soda and replace it with water or start taking a men’s multivamin, too. Even the tiniest of tweaks can result in big weight-loss success over the long term.

>> Reason 4: "You’re not informed enough "

We’re notorious for jumping into projects without reading the instructions or planning accordingly. The same holds true for weight loss. When it comes to something like weight-loss success, you want to make sure you have the best information available to help you reach your men’s weight-loss goals.


>> Reason 5: "You give into peer pressure"

 It’s easy to eat healthy in the comfort of your own home. After all, you have complete control over the foods in the fridge. But when that happy hour invitation or dinner party invitation comes your way, it can throw a wrench into your diet efforts. Whether you’re out having a beer with coworkers or dining out with some friends, you still have the choice to eat something healthy. You can always order a salad or a light beer, for example, so that you can indulge a little without completely derailing your diet. You could also have a whey protein shake beforehand so that you aren’t so hungry. Just be aware of all the food and drink options available and use your common sense — you’ll be fine. For help on dining out on a diet.

>> Reason 6: "You revert to your old habits"

Once you reach your goal weight, you have a little more leeway in terms of what you can eat, but that doesn’t give you full reign to eat whatever you want. If you made the commitment to start eating healthier, it’s important to keep in mind that this is a long-term commitment. Many guys lose weight, only to gain it back in a few years — you don’t want that to happen. Make your healthy eating tweaks a habit and you’ll truly achieve weight-loss success.
