Loss Lies We Tell celine bag Ourselves

The little white lies we tell ourselves don't seem harmful, but these tiny "untruths" may stand in the way of you reaching your goals. "People may set unrealistic goals or deprive themselves in extreme ways that are very difficult to maintain," says Bethany Teachman, PhD, assistant professor of psychology at the University of Virginia.

Want to stop telling yourself lies that sabotage your efforts? We've compiled five of the most common myths that undermine a healthy approach to weight loss, offering simple ways to banish unhelpful words from your vocabulary.

"The whole concept of a 'diet' sets us up to think we will be 'on a diet' then 'off a diet,'" says Teachman. Instead, think of your weightloss plan as a lifestyle commitment to healthy eating and exercise, for the long haul.

2. "I'll get back on track on Monday/after the holidays/when the sun comes out."

Why procrastinate? It'll only lead to more slippage. Just track any splurges now, then pick up where you left off. Look forward, not back.

3. "All my problems will be solved when I lose weight."

Dropping pounds may celine bag sale leave you feeling healthier and happier, but it won't make you a rocket scientist or turn you into a pro quarterback. Be clear about why you want to lose weight, and set realistic goals.

4. "I shouldn't wear a bathing suit (shorts, a tank top) until I've lost all the weight."

People of all different sizes and shapes enjoy flattering clothes. Break big goals into smaller ones, and reward yourself along the way. Rather than saying, "I need to lose 30 pounds," say, "I'll buy a new pair of pants, one size smaller."

5. "The less celine trio bags I eat, the faster I'll lose."

Wrong. Cutting back calories to an unrealistic amount can lower your metabolism. What happens is your body becomes more efficient meaning it needs fewer calories to perform the necessary daily functions for survival. This can slow down your weight loss. Plus, depriving yourself can backfire. Says psychologist Debra Mandel, PhD, "Deprivation makes us unhappy and actually causes us to overeat and overindulge." A slow and steady approach including treating yourself to your favorite foods, in moderation is your best bet for building a healthy relationship with food and reaching your longterm goals.
