The 5 Major Thought That Cause Failures In Fasting - 1

Although fasting enables you to become slim in a short span of time, but few can maintain this result for long. Worse still, if you go back to your old ways of eating, the statistics about your body weight may spring back to a point higher than it was prior to fasting!
Therefore, let's have a closer look at the 5 major causes of fasting failures before you embark on your fasting programs.

Cause #1 : For most people, it is difficult to persevere in fasting.
Fasting, it was said in any diet recipe, means that you have to change your eating habits for an extended period. But bad habits are hard to break, because they have become part of our life. Moreover, many bad habits are related to established eating cultures. For instant, the high fat eating habits of the western people, Japanses love salted dried fish, Chinese and Korean like preserved vegetables. These are eating habits impossible to be changed.
Besides, the success of fasting depends on your determination. One's determination is usually very strong initially, but with the passing of time the determination will be gradually eroded and finally expended.
And, you have to resist the temptations from your friends, in the forms of invitations, gatherings etc.
This is the reason why it is simple to persist for a month or two in fasting, but difficult to maintain the result at long run.
