5 Best Ways to Win Your Battle With Weight Loss

 

Do you believe that losing weight makes you happier, more satisfied, and better in every way? Wrong assumption! 5 things that aren't going to change if you lose weight

Your romantic life

If your love life isn't going well right now, it's not going to become much better once you lose weight. Losing weight, according to US doctor Terese Weinstein Katz of Prevention.com, can exacerbate the difficulties. "When one partner's eating habits change, it's natural for the other to get jealous and resentful," Katz explains. The premise is that if your partner loses weight, it's because they want to date someone else. You can avoid this mental roller coaster by discussing your weight loss objectives with a friend ahead of time - and disclosing the reasons for your desire.

Your job

"Some people believe that if they aren't happy with their weight, they won't be able to display themselves adequately," Katz explains. This is understandable, yet losing weight does not always imply increased self-esteem. Coming to terms with your physique and internalizing the positive aspects of it is far more significant. Only then will you be able to go into an interview with confidence and land your desired job.

Your depression

Many individuals believe that being overweight and depressed are synonymous. This belief indicates that decreasing weight will automatically improve your mood. This, however, is not the case! "Depression is almost often an intermittent problem that has nothing to do with weight," Katz explains. Going to a psychologist, not losing weight, will help you if you're depressed.

Your self-esteem

One thing is clear: losing weight can give you an ego boost, but it won't change the way you feel about yourself. So before you start losing weight, you should take the right attitude towards your weight loss project, says Katz. What does that mean? It's simple: you shouldn't lose weight to look better, but to take better care of yourself. The concern for one's own body must always be in the foreground.

Your eating habits

You don't have to change your eating habits if you lose weight with the help of a diet. Only a diet change can be sustained over time, and this demands a thorough evaluation of food, one's own eating habits, and one's own health. This entails waging war on emotional eating, food cravings, and yo-yo dieting.
