Plan Your Meals in Advance

One of the easiest ways to fail on a diet is to fail to plan. You're out running errands or it's lunch time at work, and you don't have a meal packed and ready to eat. So you eat fast food or something from a vending machine. It's a slippery slope for most of us, so one failure leads into another.



You can avoid this by planning to take snacks with you when you'll be away from home, or planning a whole day's meals and snacks for each day at work. Put your next day's meals together the night before, as soon as you get home, and it'll be a no-brainer the next morning. You can even prepare several days worth of meals at a time, and put them in resealable containers in your refrigerator until you need them.



A little planning can prevent a lot of mistakes and the overall failure of your diet.
