If you’re not seeing the progress you want and frustration is starting to set in, stop, and ask yourself the following questions before you jump onto the next diet, training program or supplement.
• Why do I struggle to stick to a workout plan or diet?
• Are the methods I choose too restrictive?
• Do I fully understand the fundamental principles of healthy eating and effective training?
• Do I fear certain foods because I believe they will cause weight gain? If so, why?
• Am I prone to overeating because I consistently restrict myself?
• Do I have healthy coping mechanisms for stress to prevent binge eating?
• Is my morning and nighttime routine consistent and reliable?
• Am I patient and realistic with my approach?
• Do my expectations exceed the level of effort and commitment I’m willing to put in?
• Am I prepared to embrace the long-term process and remain patient?
• Why do I let the scale alone determine my progress, and what other ways can I recognize my efforts?
• Do I focus solely on aesthetic goals, or do I appreciate the deeper benefits of eating well and exercising for my overall health?
You need to answer these honestly. Most of the time, you don’t need something new. You simply need a reality check with yourself. If you can’t achieve success with the above, you will end up jumping ship every time the waves get rough.
