    1
    Avoid crazy dieting objectives. No matter how hard you want it, there are only a few chances that you will be able to loose ten pounds in a couple of days without gaining their back soon afterwards. If you stick to reasonable dieting objectives you are more likely to succeed and to avoid opting for highly restrictive diet menus. Always remember that the least varied your meal options are, the more easily you will be tempted to fall for pizzas and other delicious cravings that only sabotage your dieting objectives.

    Design a balanced diet plan. Make sure that you work with a nutrition or health expert to define a diet plan that is both tasty, well balanced and varied. It has to include plenty of vegetables and fruits, skimmed dairy products and meager protein sources. It should also allow you to indulge yourself in some no diet food from time to time.

    Manage your cravings. Emotional eating is one of the main factors while dieting people fail in their weight loss plans. Some people tend to overeat or opt for unhealthy meals when under stress or extremely sad. Start a food diary so that you can detect when you eat out of hunger and when you do it just because you are facing a situation you cannot handle properly or that it is too moving for you. Finding other ways to work on your stress and your emotions will keep you away from the fridge.
