10 Weight Loss Diet Mistakes

The facts are clear: most people who try to lose weight either fail straightaway, or succeed for a short time and then gain back everything they've lost. SheKnows.com has put up a great outline of the ten top mistakes that women make while dieting that stifle their weight loss efforts. I'll highlight the ones I think are most important:

1. Dieting without doing any resistance training


2. Paying too much attention to what the scale says


3. Doing mostly cardio exercises


4. Skipping breakfast


5. Trying to rely on diet pills


6. Eating too little food


7. Eating out too frequently


8. Eating for emotional reasons instead of hunger


9. Dieting inconsistently


10. Not getting enough sleep

This was a great list of weight loss diet pitfalls, and definitely a lot of food for thought in there for anyone having trouble losing weight or maintaining their weight loss.

Over the next few posts I'll be going into more detail on my own observations about each of these all too common mistakes that people make when starting or sticking to a weight loss diet program. We'll talk about pure and natural weight loss that won't introduce harmful chemicals into your system or ask you to give up vital nutrients.
