It is not uncommon to lose track of why you wanted to lose weight in the first place. Even though your weight loss goals started easily, you will likely notice your motivation decline as time goes on. What's the best way to motivate yourself from the drive of all those around you? How are these people able to obtain and keep success?
The first step in your weight loss effort should be to set goals for what you want to achieve. Is there some special occasion that you need to lose weight for? Is there a specific weight loss goal you want to achieve? Are you aiming to increase the amount of energy you have? Do you need to lose weight to improve your health? These are the types of things that you need to really think about.
Keep track of your weight loss. Keep a log that charts your weekly weight loss progress. Record what you eat in the same book. Be sure to write down the foods you have each day, so you can keep track of your daily intake. The act of writing things down may well diminish your desire for excess food.
