any one out the have an diet tips i have no willpower?

Answer 1

I'm in the same boat with you about the willpower thing, but you might think about trying this book called "The Movie Star Diet" by Steve Simmons. It helped me lose thirty pounds in 2 1/2 months when I didn't think anything would work. My goal to begin with was only 20 lbs! It has a really easy plan to follow and an excellent workout to use as well.

Answer 2

Never, never go shopping when you are hungry. You will buy fattening stuff. Do your weekly shop after dinner.
Never eat anything after 7pm at night.
Buy protein foods (also good for snacks), wafer thin meat and crab sticks etc are excellent - I get through loads - and I don't feel guilty if I eat the whole pack in one go.
Dress warmly - you will eat more when you are cold.
Kit Kats and chocolate eclair cakes are less fattening than other chocolate bars and cakes.
If you fancy something sweet - have a diet coke/drink, but not too often - chemicals aren't good for you either.
Excercise - don't spend money in a gym though, walk up and down your stairs constantly for 15 minutes every day (count how many times you do it the first time - then watch that number rise as you get fitter).
If you can walk it - do so- leave the car at home.
Park your car as far away from shops/school/work as you can.
Never eat anything with pastry on - its lethal stuff.
If you absolutely have to eat something filling - have a tinned tuna sandwich (vinegar not mayo) made with brown bread - never fails.
Get to like teas and coffee without sugar - cut down sugar gradually if need be - and drink them often - I often think I am hungry but actually I am thirsty.
Good luck!

A diet that requires no willpower... easy. The Atkins diet.
We all know what we are suppose to do.. eat right, exercise daily, don't eat junk food etc boring etc. Don't get me wrong... if you can do that, go for it... i for one can't.
Lack of willpower overrides everything we know we shouldn't be doing. Hunger defeats us weak willed ppl everytime.
My diet used to be carb riddled. Breakfast consisted ot toast, midmorning was chips and maybe a burger or hotdog, lunch was the same, afternoon was more bread and then onto a huge dinner with ice-cream of course, by bedtime i was hungry again!. All that food and yet when it was close to another mealtime, i was famished.
All that changed when i was on Atkins. Although i could eat the majority of the foods i liked until i was full, i found that i was actually eating less and less everyday. Not because i found the food boring but because my appetite was shrinking. (protein is an appetite suppressant)
I used the Atkins diet for about 4 weeks, by that time i was well contented to eating 3 small meals a day and wasn't hungry at all in between. In fact i had to remind myself to eat breakfast lunch and dinner.
My diet consisted of something like this. Breaky was omelette or bacon and eggs or boiled eggs and sausages etc. Lunch was a small tin of tuna/sardines/cold meat and salad. Dinner was meat and vegies.. stir fries, fish and vegies etc etc. Keep well clear of breads, pasta, rice etc until you think you are ready to introduce them back into your diet.There's sites on the net that'll go into it in greater detail.
After the 4 weeks i started eating muesli with dried fruit for breaky, stayed with the canned fish and salad for lunch and trimmed meat and vegies for dinner.
I wouldn't personally recommend the Atkins for life but i would definately recommend it to shrink and reduce your appetite so when you do start incorporating carbs you don't need to eat a shopping cart full of food to get that full feeling.

Answer 5

It doesn't take any will power to diet. What it takes is WON'T power. I won't have that cheeseburger, I won't have that ice cream, etc. Here's more:

Losing weight really is as simple as basic addition and subtraction. If the calories you eat add up to more than what you burn in a given time period, you will gain weight. Conversely, if you eat fewer calories than you burn, you will lose weight. Depending on your size and activity level, the number of calories will vary quite a bit. The secret is finding your “break even” calorie intake level. For most people, the “ball park” figure will be around 1800 to 2000 calories per day. If you are larger than average, this number will be higher, lower if you are smaller than average. Metabolic rate can have an effect on these numbers as well. Exercise plays an important role also, as this can increase the number of calories you burn by quite a bit as well as increasing your metabolic rate.

If you want a generally healthy diet that’s easy to follow and avoids hunger, the one I recommend will do the job very well. You can fill up and still lose weight. Eat lots of fresh vegetables as they contain very few calories yet are full of good nutrition. The less you cook them, the more nutrition they retain. Stick with whole grains, as they tend to be better for you and don’t turn to sugar as readily as processed grains do. For example, whole grain bread is much better for you than plain white bread. Eat a variety of fruit on a daily basis. Avoid empty carbs, fats, and sugars…. Examples: junk food and soda. If you feel you need protein to build muscle, add some chicken or fish to your diet. Avoid beef and dairy products, the cons outweigh the pros.

If you can’t get your mind into the ‘eat to live; don’t live to eat’ mode, you should probably read this short article on the psychology behind overeating:
