Recognizing blind spots in your diet and fat loss
program
Don't sabotage your fat
loss efforts
Have you heard the joke
about the person who orders a large cheeseburger and super
sized fries and then asks for a diet soda because they are
on a diet? Although this is an exaggeration it is a perfect
way to explain what we mean by a blind spot. A blind spot is
something that can sabotage your weight loss efforts and
everyone sees it but you.
Your blind spot may be
one of the following or any number of things:
 | You binge on
nutritionally void foods because they are "low fat" |
| You quench your
thirst with diet drinks |
| Your exercise routine
is very ineffective |
| You only eat out on
weekends so you feel you can eat anything you want |
| You don't realize you
are constantly snacking during the day |
These are just a few
things to get your mind working on how you may be sabotaging
your weight loss efforts. More than likely even if we read
about our blind spot we won't recognize it – after all, it
is a blind spot. So, how do you find out what your blind
spots are?
| Keep a journal of
everything you eat for a month and then evaluate |
| Ask someone that you
can trust and value their opinion |
| Pay a personal
trainer to evaluate your exercise routine |
| Pay a registered
dietician to evaluate your eating habits |
| Purchase a
diet/exercise tracking software such as LINK HERE and let
it evaluate your input. |
Recognizing your
nutrition and exercise blind spots can help you achieve your
healthy lifestyle, and ideal weight goals. If you have had
experience with blind spots in your diet, exercise programs,
or anywhere else in your life which has affected your health
and weight – Please share them with us.
