Do you complain that living alone is boring and that there are no advantages to it? There is good news for all of you who live alone. Studies have shown that you have a better chance of success at weight loss than if you live with a roommate or with a family. There are simply too many distractions in a normal family life and a person who is trying to lose weight will have to overcome many obstacles.
One of the biggest reasons why people are not able to lose weight is that they are not able to focus on it. This is particularly true if you live with other family members. It may be very difficult for you to stick to a specific diet if you are the one who has to prepare food for other family members as well. If you have small children, this becomes even more difficult because you already have to focus your attention on their diet. Many mothers complain that the reason they put on weight is because they felt compelled to finish up leftovers from their kid's meals.
Your family members or roommates may want to stock the shelves with snacks and sodas that will go against your weight loss efforts.
Many people who are trying hard to lose weight also complain that their efforts are being sabotaged by an overweight spouse who feels insecure about their improving appearance.
You will also have little time to go to a gym because of your family chores and activities. Even if you do manage to find the time to exercise, you are always conscious that you have to come back home at a specific time. Whether you exercise in a gym or by jogging around the block, you cannot devote as much time to it as you want or need.
If you live alone, you can cook food without worrying about whether anybody else will find it appetizing. You can also exercise at any time of your convenience. You will also not have to answer uncomfortable questions about the weight you have managed to lose.
