Depending on how over weight you are, losing weight can take time. For some, it takes a few weeks, for others it could take several months, and for those who are morbidly obese, it could take a couple of years to get down to a healthy weight. Unfortunately, most dieters never actually make it down to their healthy weight, because they have not found weight loss diets that they can live with on a daily basis.

If you were told that you had to eat foods that you were not fond of, in very small amounts, one day a week, you could probably do this. But many diet plans have you eating small amounts of food that you hate for long periods of time, every single day. Nobody can live with that - so in a short amount of time, we ditch the diet and go back to our old eating habits...mainly because we feel like we are starving to death. This is why so many fail at diets - it isn't because they are weak - unless they are weak from hunger.

You need weight loss diets that you can live with on a day to day basis. This means that foods that you enjoy must be included in that diet and the amount of food that you are allowed to eat while on the program should be an amount that is sufficient enough to leave you feeling satisfied after a meal. If your diet plan does not include these things, you are on the wrong plan, and you need to make a change quickly.
