]]>Now, we don’t mean self-accountability, the kind that preaches that we should all be ensuring that we’re being accountable for ourselves. That’s all good and all, but this isn’t where the real work is at. If people were able to be accountable for themselves, they wouldn’t have to diet in the first place. No, what we’re talking about is external accountability.
External accountability is having a buddy, or a nutritionist, or a doctor keeping tabs on you and making sure that you’re holding up your end of the diet. Not unlike a workout buddy, this person is there to support you and pick you up when you’re struggling.
There’s no denying that having someone like this is helpful, but some people would rather not have someone to answer to. If that sounds like you, consider giving it a try, because you may just find that the additional support will make all the difference in your growth.

]]>Perhaps the biggest reason that people break their diet is the simple fact that they’re exposed to the very things they’re not supposed to eat. Sure, there’s the occasional diet-break of the person who ordered in from their favorite spot, but more often than not it comes from eating junk food that’s laying around the house somewhere.
That’s why the best thing you can do for yourself is to simply not buy the foods you don’t want to eat. When you go to the supermarket, refrain from buying junk food. Go through your pantry and rid it of anything you don’t need. By doing this, you’ll be eating healthily by default. At first it’ll be hard, but eventually you’ll get used to not having those foods around.

]]>It is true that we need to focus on every step of the journey, but it’s also true that the journey can be made easier if we remind ourselves why we’re doing it in the first place. Remember your ultimate goal, and allow that to guide you through the tough times.
Not unlike a workout buddy, having someone to hold you accountable can sometimes be the very thing that helps you follow through on a mission. Whether it’s a friend, a family member, or a trainer, they can be the voice of “tough love”—but also the support—you need throughout the struggles.
This may be the most important tip of all. Oftentimes when we cheat on our diets, we may start to beat ourselves up about it—but this is the last thing you should do. This will only make things worse. You need to love yourself and remind yourself that you’re not perfect, and that’s okay.
