Weight loss tip

One good weight loss tip that I believe helps you stay on track on those days that you overeat/ go over your calorie limit is to think of your calories in terms of each week.

Most people when they try to lose weight they think of the amount of calories they need to stay under each day. The problem with that is obviously those days that we end up eating more due to going out, feeling stressed or whatever happens that day.

Those things usually demotivate people and makes them wanna give up all together. However if you think of the total amount of calories you need to stay under each week, it can feel more like a small slip up rather that a catastrophe on your weight loss goals

To illustrate my point let’s say you eat 500 more than what you are supposed to that day. Let’s say the amount of calories you need to stay under is 1700. If you think of those 500 calories in comparison to the amount you are supposed to eat that day, it might feel like you “ruined” your diet. However if you compare those calories to the amount you need to stay under each week (1700x 7= 11,900) it doesn’t feel like that big of a deal. You can just be a little more careful the next couple days and you can feel like you are still on track.

Hope that helps!
