Dieting is in fact close to a religious ritual.

Obesity is the root of all diseases. That’s why many people actually need a diet. However, most of them try to lose weight in terms of appearance rather than health. And it fails. Even if you succeed, you often fail again right away. How can I get my diet right?

Once you eat a lot, you will definitely get steamed. The only way is to eat less. But eating less is harder than you think. This is because we are coded in our DNA to eat a lot if we have the opportunity. To get away from this basic instinct, you have to approach your diet with the mind of a monk.

If you really want to be successful with your diet, you have to be friendly with hunger. You should be able to ignore your body’s signals that it is hungry. This signal is so strong that most of us tolerate it well and give in at the last minute before going to bed. In particular, there are many people who have trouble sleeping with an empty stomach, so there are really many cases of binge eating before going to bed. Prejudice must be overcome here. If you get used to it, you can get a good night’s sleep even on an empty stomach. In fact, it is not that you cannot sleep well because you are hungry, but more often than not, the prejudice that you cannot sleep well when you are hungry dominates us.

And you don’t have to eat all three meals a day. Unless the work you do requires a lot of energy, modern people consume more calories than necessary. In particular, if you do intermittent fasting, you can lose weight more easily than you think. There is a condition, but you must not binge eat after fasting. The more I think about it, the more dieting seems to be a process of training.

And the people around you also have a huge impact on your diet. When I’m on a diet, I need people around me who understand my situation. However, having such a relationship is not easy. So what you can choose to be active is to resolutely not enter a situation where you have to eat a lot. It can get a little lonely in comparison.

Exercising is the icing on the cake, but 80% of diet is eating. In the end, you have to overcome the signal of desire sent by DNA and low metacognition to be able to diet and maintain it. First of all, if you want to succeed in dieting after harvesting, be friendly with hunger. I am sure that if you approach with the mind of a monk in the first place, the probability of success will increase by 10%.
