It can be very difficult for some people to stay true to their weight loss program.
This is especially true for those of us who have tried to lose weight before but have failed.
The reason behind this is lack of motivation.
We don't look at weight loss the way we should be.
Instead of visualizing a diet plan as a long term process with numerous benefits, we look at it as a short term journey with only one purpose- to help us lose weight.
When we consume a healthy diet we increase our energy, boost our metabolism, improve our sleeping pattern, improve our mental clarity, and reduce our risk of various chronic diseases.
So as you can see weight loss is not the only beneficial outcome of a healthy diet.
In this article I will provide you with several beneficial mottos which will help you stick with your weight loss plan.

1. Be a strong believer in the idea that "high calorie foods should be smallest portion of your diet and vegetables should be the largest.
   " Percentage wise, picture a plate which is comprised of vegetables (50%), lean protein (25%), and whole grains (25%).
   
2. Know that your cravings will go away.
   If you stop thinking about that piece of chocolate for 10 minutes, the craving will disappear.
   
3. If you want to lead a long and healthy lifestyle, remember that you have to make some sacrifices.
   
4. Visualize that it is much more difficult to be overweight than it is to stop overeating!

These are just a few tips to help you get back on track with your weight loss plan.
