Many fasters may find it difficult to stick with intermittent fasting, here I will give you some tips to focus on fasting and losing weight.
Set realistic goals
Most people choose intermittent fasting to lose weight. But we all know that it’s not possible to lose 20 pounds in just one week. So go for a realistic target.
Accept your new lifestyle
Intermittent fasting is more like a lifestyle that guides you to have a healthy eating habit. Accept it physically and mentally, turn your new eating habit into a lifestyle.
Begin with no guilt
You have gained a little weight in the past, but it’s not totally your fault. The gene, your surroundings, the curriculum, and work… many things could lead to your weight gain. What you do now is the choice you are making.
Ignore negativity
Some people may do not understand your lifestyle changes or do not support you. Do worry and ignore them. You should trust yourself and remember that success is a very lonely road.
Be honored for a small step
Any result is better than no result. Every small step should be celebrated. 2 pounds a week seems like a very small number, but 20 pounds after ten weeks is a great success.
