Why Your New Year's Weight Loss Resolution Will End In Tears

By Howe Russ


It's the January rush and gyms around the world are flooded with people asking for explanations on how to lose weight quickly and effectively. That's right, it's New Year's resolution time again. Sadly, the overwhelming majority of people who make weight loss their ultimate resolution for the new year tend to get absolutely nowhere and find themselves making the exact same goal twelve months later.

So why does it never actually pan out like you plan?

The truth is you are certainly not alone in this situation. Year after year, countless people make the decision to get fit when January 1st swings around and most people don't see any progress towards the fat loss goal they repeatedly set for themselves as each new calendar year begins.

As you might expect, if you start telling yourself that your life is going to completely change just because the calendar says January 1st you are probably going to fall off the rails pretty quickly. Your life is a long-term thing, therefore any attempts to change it also need to be long-term, too.

In order to reach success with your fat loss mission you will need to be serious and long-term about achieving your goals. Sadly, the new year resolutions many people make are quick fix wishes they simply cannot stick to. A lot of people do it simply because it's something they have done every year for a long time now and they don't know anything else. That's right, even though they know they're not going to stick to the new diet routine they'll still make plans to lose weight this year. Usually, celebrity magazines and society are to blame for this religious diet planning.

It's all just a way of comforting yourself, creating reasons which make it okay for you to fail. Your body doesn't really care whether it's the first of January or the twelve of February. Yet if you ask somebody to start their next diet on a Thursday you'll generally get a look of shock from them. Ultimately, if you're going to do it you'll do it.

Successfully dieting to burn fat works no matter what day of the week, or date of the month it happens to be. If you make excuses to fail, such as trying to tell yourself that you'll start your diet again next week because it's Tuesday and you've enjoyed a piece of junk food, you won't get anywhere.

If you make a concerted effort to work at a small calorie deficit, combined with drinking plenty of water and eating small, regular meals you will see good results regardless of what time of year you start.

So there you have it. Most of us don't fail to get results from our diet because we lack some kind of special ingredient or secret formula. Most fail because January is a month which prompts almost everybody to make big claims of changing their body, most of whom are simply not ready to do it yet. When you want to figure out how to lose weight effectively, the first thing to take into consideration is how serous you actually are. If you're genuinely as serious as you claim to be, then it really doesn't matter what month it is.
