Weight loss plan

You have enough of these kilos stuck on your body; you are more than determined to do all you can to regain your slim figure back because it will add a plus to your self-esteem and you won't have to change completely your whole wardrobe. When deciding to lose weight, you have to think of it as of what it really is: a battle. You have to do what all the great commanders do: plan it carefully.

A plan well done will be a great help in achieving your goals. You can write it down on a paper or you can draft it on your PC and then printed. Not the form is important but its content, so don't waste too much time working on it; you won't win a Nobel prize for it and it isn't likely that too many will be interested to read it, but yourself. Here are some helpful suggestions for your plan:

• set your goal and the period of time for the diet (be realistic, you can't lose 10 kilos in 2 weeks)
• make sure that you are healthy and can carry out a diet
• choose a diet ( Scarsdale diet, Sonoma diet, Weight Watchers, Mayo diet, South Beach diet, Montignac diet) or create your own one (then is better to check first with a nutritionist)
• create a chart (which has to be updated every Monday morning before breakfast). Here you have to write down:
• 1) your wight and your sizes (breast, hips and waist) because it is sometimes easier to see the progress made from the measurements than by looking at kilos; 
  2) how much good liquid (water, natural juices) have you drunk
  3) how much time have you spent for sport, what kind of sport did you do (cardio, exercising your muscles, etc)
  4) if you have cheated and which way (be honest with yourself)

• then create another charter, which is more complex than the first one, and write down what you have to eat every day (if you are following one of the diets above) or how many calories if you create your own menu
• on the cover of your plan stick a picture of yourself from the period when you were pleased with your kilos and under it a suggestive motto, something that can motive you (“You can do it”; “be yourself again”)

No matter how good the plan is it will be better if you will have somebody to report your progresses or to sustain you when you are depressed and about to give up. It can be one of your friends, it can be a partner (a work college, a neighbor, an acquaintance from the gym club who starts the diet at the same time with you) or you can go on some special website forums where supportive groups are.
