Many times we find that our weight reduction rate is too slow in spite of all our efforts. Such a situation is very frustrating and disappointing. This may affect our sincerity towards our weight reduction program. At such a situation, we should bear in mind that it takes so many years for fat to deposit in our body so how we can get rid of those layers of fat overnight! Here in this article we will discuss what to do if the rate of weight loss is too slow.

Firstly enforce the dietary regimen strictly. The uneasiness caused by dieting is always short-term. In few days, the body gets used to the low intake of food and with that the uneasiness also disappears. If the dietary regimen is violated or interrupted frequently, the body can’t adjust to the low intake of food; or at least it takes a very long time to get used to it. A small sacrifice made at the initial stage yields great benefits in the long term. Having an ideal weight keeps us away from the risk of developing serious diseases in later life.

For 3 days, take a piece of paper and jot down all the food items that you happen to eat. Make a total of the calorific value of all the food items consumed by you during these days. You will be surprised when you see the number of calories consumed by you. Experiments have shown that many fat person derived inspiration from such a procedure of counting the calories. This will extremely help you in continuing your weight reduction program with the same enthusiasm.

If you are suffering from some psychological problem, try to find a rational solution for the same. In serious cases, psychotherapy or hypnosis can also help. Hypnosis can help a person who has psychological disorders or is unable to reduce weight due to his weakness to resist the temptation to eat.

However, if in spite of all these efforts, there is no weight loss, reduce the intake of salt, sugar and water. Take half a glass of warm water with a few drops of lemon added to it two or three times during the day.

If you continue to make efforts with patience and perseverance, there is no doubt that you will be able to reduce your weight.
