Why Is It So Difficult to Maintain the Diet for More Than 1 Week?

Nowadays, we are bombarded by images of spectacularly sculpted bodies like greek statues. It is very common to hear comments from people who are dieting because they want to have the body same as a celebrity or because someone commented on those extra pounds. More common still are those who see a scheme to fit into that dress for the party or to do well on the beach in summer. The curious thing is that people do not sustain the diet for a long time. The average time that they face a diet is only eight days. But why does this happen? Why do most just give up? What is the best way to sustain a healthy diet for a long period? One study, which examined 1000 British women, found that only 4% of women felt secure with their bodies. About 42% were constantly trying to lose weight. Some said they began thinking about dieting because they were not satisfied with what they saw in the mirror, while others said they decided to diet because of any comments from the husband. But most coul! d not sustain the diet for more than eight days.
