Top 10 Tips on How to Stay Motivated During A Juice Fast

1. Learn all about juice fasting for weight loss before anything else
Do some research about the diet before committing to anything. Try to understand its purpose, its benefits and how exactly it works in the body to know if this is something you're ready for - physically and mentally. Don't start a diet unless you intend to stick to it until the very end.

2. List all the reasons you have for going through a juice fast
Before you begin with the diet, take the time to sit down and make a list of your personal reasons for wanting to do a juice fast. When you find yourself wanting to stop in the middle of your diet, bring the list out to remind yourself of why you made the commitment in the first place.

3. Look for inspiration
One effective way to do this is to read blogs of people who have achieved their weight loss goals through juicing. Reading success stories of other people experienced what you're going through right now will be of great help.

4. Stay positive
Surround yourself with people who are there to support your goals such as family and friends. Being in a positive environment will help you reach your goals easier.

5. Plan your "meals" ahead
Make sure you have a meal plan ready for each day of your juice fast. Following a meal plan, knowing what to juice and when to drink the juice will help you focus on your weight loss goals.

6. Listen to your body
While on a juice fast, your body is going through cleansing and detoxification which may cause your energy levels to drop at times. When you feel tired, rest or sleep. When you feel hungry, drink juice or water. Learning to listen to your body's needs will help you feel more at ease while juice fasting.

7. Do fun and relaxing activities
Doing things that help you relax will increase your weight loss motivation and will help take your mind off of cravings. Creating art, learning a new hobby, reading a good book or watching your favorite movie are some of the things you can try.

8. Be creative with your juices
One reason why some people stop at the middle of a fast is because they get bored with the taste of juice. This doesn't have to be the case for you - juice different types of fruits and vegetables so that you also consume different tastes. Be creative with your combinations!

9. Think of your health
If you're juicing for weight loss and find yourself about to fall off the wagon, think about your health. If you stop now, you won't only lose a chance in weight loss, but you are also losing a great chance to become healthier.

10. Picture the benefits you'll get after the juice fast
One of the best ways to feel motivated about something is to think about the rewards. Remember, the harder the challenge, the better the rewards at the end of the line.

Follow these simple tips while juicing for weight loss and you'll surely complete your fast with flying colors.

Top 10 Secrets to Nip Nibbling

1. Observe: Have you ever seen another Mom eat off her children's plates? When we're able to look at something objectively we often see how we must look when we do the same thing. If you don't like how it looks, don't do it yourself. 2. Visualize: Imagine everything you've snacked on throughout the day...a few handfuls of chips while you're watching TV, a few tastes of the meal you're preparing for dinner, some cookies that were on the counter. Now imagine putting it all on a plate. How does the plate look? Visualize this plate in addition to the meals you've eaten throughout the day. 3. Distract: Often just getting involved in another activity is enough to stop you from "mindless munching". Try cleaning out a drawer, taking the dog for a walk, writing in a journal or any other activity that distracts you from nibbling and gives you pleasure.

Want Power Before Will Power

The problem isn't that you don't have enough will power to achieve what you want. You have will power, but it's not will power you need, it's want power.  You have to first want  You must want to change your habits, want to lose some weight, want to give up your evening snacking before your will comes into play. Once you want a thing badly enough, you will do whatever it takes. If you think you want something (to make a change in your eating habits perhaps), but then find it difficult to follow-through with your plans, most likely you simply want your current reality (your current habits and patterns) more than you want your goals (less weight, better health, etc.) I can hear you all the way over here, telling me I'm wrong: "No, that's not right! I want this more than anything, I just don't have any willpower!" Round and round you go, but the truth is, you will get what you really want. Think back, has there ever been a time when you rea...
