How To Avoid Boredom Whilst Losing Weight…

Losing weight isn’t easy. Sometimes we need to let our hair down and enjoy ourselves. We are humans, not machines. If we lead a too disciplined life, we could rebel against our own weight loss goals.

 

Here’s some tips to help you avoid boredom whilst losing weight…

 

Find an active friend – If you’re lucky, you may have a friend who likes to be active. Or one who wishes to lose weight. You could go to the gym, play sports, or go walking together. Socialising doesn’t have to involve unhealthy pursuits!

 

Go on a pub walk – It’s a great day out walking across the countryside and visiting pubs or bars. Just make sure they have some distance between them! And only have one drink in each. If you want to be scientific, calculate the amount of calories you drink, and compare them to the amount of calories you’ve burned. If you can break even then great – you’ve had a calorie free drinking session!

Don’t Give Yourself Chance To Grow Bored & Snack!

If you dine out – Skip the starter and the desert. Choose a main course that’s nutritious but low in calories. Go online and check out their menu before you go. This way you can check out the calories with an online calorie counter. Don’t forget to factor in the calories of any drinks. And avoid sugar and cream if you have a coffee!

 

Set yourself goals with rewards – This helps keep things interesting. If you lose 14 pounds, you could buy yourself a nice treat that you really want. You’ll feel motivated to lose the weight, and feel like you’ve earned the treat.

 

Develop a passion for cooking – Learn how to cook interesting, nutritional, but low calorie meals. There are loads of places on the web where you can find great recipes. Cooking gives you something interesting to do. Learning new skills and trying different foods is always good for the soul.

 

Make interesting low calorie drinks – Squeezing various fruits such as lemons and limes into soda water, with some ice, can make a really interesting drink. Since soda water has zero calories, the only calories are from the fruit juice.

 

Reduce/eliminate your alcohol intake – Alcohol contains a vast amount of calories, so it’s best to avoid them. If you can’t, then at least reduce your alcohol consumption. Check out my tips on how to reduce your alcohol consumption.

 

Go somewhere you can dance – If you’re the dancing type, go somewhere you can dance. Or better still, take dance lessons. This is fun, and helps you burn off calories!

 

Work more – If you eat out of boredom, then perhaps you would benefit from doing more hours at work. Or keep things interesting by finding a side hustle. This gives you less free time to get bored and eat. Plus you’re likely to burn more calories working than doing nothing.
