If you want to lose weight for free, you have to use an effective motivation, nutrition, and exercise strategy.
There are many theories about what produces the energy, the drive, and the non-stop motivation to take you from where you are today, to where you want to be in the future, when you finally create irreversible, long term weight loss success.
The biggest problem with most of these ineffective motivation theories is that they only work in the short term. Even if some of them can help you to reach your ideal weight, maintaining this outcome is a totally different story.
Everyone has heard of the high failure rate when it comes to producing permanent fat loss. The latest statistics confirm that over 97% of the people that lose weight, gain it all back within three years.
What is the major reason behind this failure rate? Well, obviously it is the fact that most people have a very strong desire to eat delicious food, while simultaneously they have a strong desire to avoid doing exercise.
If you take a few minutes and think about that, you will realize that in order to create a lean, healthy body and then maintain it for life, you have to eat healthy, not-so-tasty food, and exercise on a regular basis.
And, this is exactly the opposite of what most people want to do.
Basically, this means that in order to create irreversible, long term weight loss success you have to know exactly how to motivate yourself to do something that you don't really want to do...for the rest of your life.
Since I do not want to waste your time, I will explain the most effective approach that you can use to lose weight for free, and eventually create permanent fat loss.
The first thing that you should do is decide what is more important to you, having a lean, healthy body or eating delicious, high calorie food and the comfort of not exercising. If you decide that it is more important for you to create a lean, healthy body, then this will become your primary objective.
Now, the secondary steps that you must take in order to reach your primary objective will include eating healthy food, drinking plenty of water and exercising on a daily basis.
If you decide that eating delicious, high calorie food, and the comfort of not doing exercise on a regular basis is more important than having the body of your dreams, obviously you will not be able to produce long term weight loss success because there will be nothing to motivate you to eat healthy food and to do exercise.
In other words, you can be naturally motivated to eat healthy food and to exercise on a regular basis only when these secondary steps help you to accomplish your primary objective, which is having a lean, healthy body. You still, most likely will not want to eat healthy food and exercise, but you will take these actions because they help you to accomplish something that is much more important to you!
In 1994, when I reached 285 pounds, this realization is what helped me to create the energy, the drive, and the non-stop motivation to lose over 110 pounds of unwanted body fat and reach my ideal weight of 175 pounds with 10% body fat in twelve months.
I have also used this approach to maintain this weight for almost 15 years.
So, if you truly desire to lose weight for free, and truly desire to create irreversible, long term weight loss success, create some clarity in your life by making a choice what will be more important to you and what will be less important.
This clarity will help you to go from where you are right now, to where you want to be in the future, when you finally create permanent fat loss and bring into reality the body of your dreams.
