Cheating a Diet is not a solution for weight loss?

Submitted by vkpjain
Wed, 11 Nov 2009

If you are trying to lose weight fast , one thing is certain: Eventually, no matter how hard you try to avoid it, you will eat something your diet says you shouldn't, overindulge, or skip a workout session. In the end, it's not important; what is important is how you respond to these perceived setbacks.
Unfortunately, rather than picking themselves up and carrying on with their routine, many people end up thinking that they "blew it" and end up going back to their old, pre-diet eating habits, telling themselves that they can try again at some point in the future.
This kind of "all-or-nothing" approach to weight loss is one major factor explaining why so few people who begin a diet routine fail to follow through - structured diets that make no allowances for failure whatsoever are setting you up to fail.
Instead, it is much better to begin a new quick weight-loss program understanding from the start that you will experience periodic setbacks and be unable to keep to your set meal plan and exercise schedule. When such setbacks occur, make a commitment to simply go back to your diet routine as soon as you can, without guilt and without feeling like you have to start over from the beginning.
This more tolerant approach to weight loss makes the issue of "cheating" on a diet a moot point, since temporary setbacks are no longer automatic failures, or something that needs to be thought of as something that is "your fault" - they are just "real life" unavoidably getting in the way of your best-laid diet plan from time to time, and nothing more. And the more easily and guiltlessly you can transition back into your diet and fitness routine, the more likely you will be to stick with it over the long term.
Ultimately, the greatest barrier to healthy eating for most people is guilt - many people feel guilty when they eat "bad" foods, but these feelings do not do anything to help you lose weight; indeed, the added stress could actually hamper your slimming efforts. Keep in mind that no diet should be so strict that no deviation is allowed at any time, and that periodically giving in to cravings (within reason) can actually help you stay on track and fat loss naturally . After all, it is better in the long term to forget your diet for one meal than to do away with it entirely.
In the end, no diet will be successful unless you enjoy the food that you are eating - if you are changing your eating habits dramatically, this may take some time, but eventually you will have to allow enough enjoyable foods into your diet to make it bearable. The more you can truly come to enjoy healthy foods, the more likely you are to maintain healthy eating habits for life.
