Many times if there is a struggle to lose weight or change the body composition, some people will look in the wrong areas for a reason. For example, one may think that the problem with following a diet is lack of discipline or the person may not want it bad enough. Optimal change is not necessarily from a specific diet but a decision to change your whole nutrition lifestyle. Your nutrition lifestyle is not a three or six month regiment but a plan to reduce non-healthy items and replace them with better options for the rest of your life. Remember, diets do not work. Outside of that, there are many factors that influence your decision to change that you probably did not consider.
Balance and happiness in various areas of your life can play a factor when it comes to your food choices. Areas such as career, relationships, finances, your health, confidence and spirituality along with physical activity are all important toward your well-being. If any of those areas are off balance, that may be one of the underlying reasons for the struggle and poor food choices.
If there has been on ongoing struggle, take a look at your life and think about those areas. It could be something that is going on now or something in the past, for example an unresolved issue with a loved one that weighs heavily on your mind, an unfulfilling job that you dread getting up for or there is a lack of peace or solitude that you connect with, whether is it a higher being or nature. All or any of these areas can be improved with small steps over time. This is just one thought as to why a change in your nutrition lifestyle seems tough. Look outside the box. Is your life in balance?
