Keep track of all the minor changes
Our main goal in preparing for this life-changing process is to make sure that no accomplishment goes
unnoticed. For example, if you check your weight after having been on a diet for a week, you may not
notice a change on the scale. However, if you recorded your previous weight, you will even see the
half pound that you might have shed!
Similarly, most women aren't aware of the fact that getting a better body doesn't always mean losing
weight. You can actually be gaining weight while toning up your body! This is because as the fat sheds
away the muscle begins to take its place. This muscle mass is one of the best things that can happen
to you! You will look leaner and slimmer even if you have added some weight on! This is why our
major goal is to record all minor and major accomplishments. Keep a record of your measurements will
help you in determining that you have made progress even if you cannot see it physically.
Be ready to let go off usual food items
Remember that you will have to train your brain. Many things that you previously believed were "Fine"
to eat may not be acceptable now. For example, you may have heard all your life that meat is the best
source of protein but you may find it bizarre if your diet doesn't include it. In fact, you may even find
yourself thinking that you're wiser than the plan and you absolutely must stick to the essentials you
have taught all your life.
This is exactly why I previously mentioned that this process is going to be difficult and emotionally
challenging. These constantly reminded concepts have such an important part in our brain that we
have an unbreakable emotional link with food. Can you imagine no eating meat if it has been a part of
your daily diet? Even if you're not a meat lover you will find yourself craving your usual diet in the first
few days. However, remember that these emotions are the first thing you need to overthrow. Once you
delve deeper into the plan and start seeing the positive changes in your body, you will start to
experience a better quality of life and self-confidence! Even without my suggestion you will want to
adopt the plan forever!
