"Why Most Resolutions Fail and How to Beat the Odds in 2024"
/Every January, millions of people resolve to lose weight and live healthier lives. Yet, studies show that 80% of New Year’s resolutions fail by mid-February. So, how can you break the cycle and make 2024 the year you succeed?
The Key to Success: Decision and Commitment
The first step to lasting weight loss is making a firm decision. Not a wish, not a hope—a decision. When you commit fully to your health, you’re less likely to waver when challenges arise. At Soma Bariatrics, we’ve seen countless patients achieve remarkable results once they make the decision to take control of their health.
Why Resolutions Fail—And How to Avoid the Pitfalls
Vague Goals: Resolutions like “I want to lose weight” lack clarity. Replace vague intentions with specific, actionable goals. For example: “I’ll meal prep every Sunday” or “I’ll walk 30 minutes, 5 days a week.”
Lack of Accountability: Without someone to keep you on track, it’s easy to fall off course. Partner with a friend, join a support group, or work with Soma Bariatrics to ensure you have the accountability you need.
Trying to Do It Alone: Weight loss is a journey, and having expert guidance can make all the difference. Whether it’s nutritional counseling, non-surgical options, or bariatric surgery, our team can help you navigate the path to success.
All-or-Nothing Thinking: Slip-ups happen. One missed workout or indulgent meal doesn’t mean failure. Focus on progress, not perfection, and get back on track as soon as possible.
