Gentlemen, congratulations on your decision to eat healthier and clean-up your diet. This year, you are back, buff, and better than ever! In this video men’s style, grooming, fitness and lifestyle expert, Aaron Marino of IAmAlphaM, AaronMarino, and Pete & Pedro is going over ten tips to keep your diet successful. Remember, you can set anything you set your mind to. The only thing standing in your way is YOU.
How Not to Sabotage Your Diet Success
- Prior planning and preparation of meals is critical and key to diet success
- Cook your meals in advance and have them ready in the fridge
- Don’t have ‘just one’ because when have you had ‘just one’? Don’t have that 1st taste!
- Don’t worry about throwing-out food that you paid for – get the crap out of your house
- Nobody (not even your mamma) cares what you eat! So don’t think you have to be polite if someone has cooked a meal. You can be selective and/or practice portion control. Eat before you go and drink water to fill you up.
- When eating out at a restaurant, know what you’re ordering before you get there and don’t even open the menu.
- A cheat meal is OK, but not a cheat ‘day’! It takes 3 – 5 days to get your body cranking, and when you throw in a super bad day of bad food selections, your body has to pick up steam again. A cheat meal doesn’t have the same effect.
- Fluctuation on the scale happens to all of us – if Alpha eats a meal that he’s not used to, he can gain 5 pounds via water retention. Further, alcohol screws everything up further because your body handles it differently than regular food.
- Don’t blame your age for weight. Yes, your metabolism will give you the finger when you get older, BUT you can still succeed. Just figure out that formula.
- Don’t start tomorrow!? Start TODAY! If you stuck to your diet when you started the 1st time, where would you be today!?
