Your Ideal Weight Loss Goal

Setting a Weight Loss Goal to Suit You 

If you are considering that now may be the time to start losing weight you need to identify just how much weight you need to lose and over what timescale. The important thing to remember is to set your gaol to one wthat is achieveable otherwsie you may just give up. FACT - a majority of people's weigh loss goals are unrealistic and so have an ideal excsue to give up.

Choosing a Realistic Weight Loss Goal

We are all different and so when setting a weight loss target remember to focus on your own body and not someone elses especially a famous person or even your slimming partner if you have one. You are unique, so choose a traget that you are comfortable with.

We are all different shapes and sizes it is pointless trying to run a parallel target with someone who is shorter or taller than you. The taller you are the more your body mass is likely be and so any weight reducing scheme will take longer to take effect.

Most people will notice a bigger weight reduction at the start of their programme and this gradually declines the nearer they get their their ideal weight. When you are close to achieving your target you will find the last few pounds are extremely hard to shift. This is due to our body realsing it is approaching its correct weight and does not want to creep into the realms of being underweight.

Another thing to take into account when setting your goal is how overweight you actually are now. That will make a difference as to how much weight you should ideally set to lose in the beginning. If you have quite a lot of weight to lose, it is always better to set yourself small targets. For example, if you are over three stone overweight, set yourself a target to lose around three to four pounds as your first target. Starting off little will help you to keep the goal achievable and you will not become depressed for not reaching it!

Do you have a mental picture of the ideal you. Is it one of a much younger and slimmer person. If this is the case you are probably trying to reach an unreachable goal as you were probably a lot more active then than you are today. You have to face up to the fact that that was then and this is now. Concentrate on goal steps rather than a before and after type scenario.

So in summary, the biggest reason why you are unlikely to lose weight and maintain your ideal weight is not setting a target that is attainable. By setting a realistic goal will give you a high chance of success. Remember though if you do slip back into old habits and your weight strts to creep back up again - do not give up. Steady forward progress is the key.
