I know I know, it has been a hard week just like all other weeks of the year and your wait for weekend each and every week is more than the previous one. All you need is to relax, have a great food and drinks with the people who mean to you and call it a night by dancing to your favorite tunes.

Cheat in your limits!

You get so excited on the weekend and the fact that it also is a cheat day for you from the diet you have been following that you end up eating more than your stomach needs, because it’s a cheat day after all so eat all you can in one go. Nope! That’s now it should be.

Why only weekend-cheat?

I believe that cheat days should not only be on weekends. Set a goal. For example if you had a cheat day on saturday then your next cheat day should be next sunday and the third cheat day should be on next week’s monday and so on.

Set the Right Reward!

Another problem we all have when dieting is rewarding ourselves. We tell ourselves that if i end up dieting for a whole week, i would buy myself a pizza or if i lose 5 kgs in a month i would buy myself a cake. That’s completely wrong and you are rewarding yourself with all the wrong things.

I prefer setting your rewards other than food, like rewarding yourself with a gorgeous dress if you lose 5 kgs in a month or buying yourself something you have been wanting to buy all along but could not find enough motivation to buy it. Find your motivation in your dieting.

Believe me when your rewards are set right, you will feel much more encouraged to work towards your transformation.

If you crave it, have it.

Enjoy and eat whatever you want but in limited quantities. you are craving for a cheese burst pizza? Eat it, don’t make yourself crave desperately for it. Have a slice to satisfy your craving because when you don’t satisfy your craving then it increases and when you see pizza, you will end up eating it like you have never seen it before. And all your week’s diet would go waste.

Burn it away

No! It’s not food that i am talking about, but it’s your calories. You had a good weekend and had drinks and unhealthy food, but it’s okay. Burn it out next day in the gym so that when you run on treadmill to burn extra calories you realise how much exercise you need to do in order to shed off the potential pounds from last night. This realization alone would keep you in control the next time.
