Go Big or Go Home

Posted on August 20, 2014

Okay maybe it isn't the best choice of words but very appropriate for what I am taking on. After 25 years of progressive weight gain (40 lbs in the last year), enough is enough.

I have reached the point where I have no more excuses so I am lining up several tools, incentives, games to motivate me to do this once and for all.

Joined the gym
Found a personal trainer
Signed up for a Diet Bet challenge
Promised myself 'no more fast food'

My goal...lose 50 lbs by New Years...100 lbs bby May 2015.

I find BIG GOALS work best for me to hitting the mark.

That's an aggressive time table for that amount of weight-loss. I'm not saying it isn't doable, but I encourage you to always celebrate the mini-milestones, too. Congratulate yourself everyone time you lose another 10 pounds, and remember that every pound lost is another proof of your commitment to yourself. For the next 9 months, you're going to have to remember to focus on all the positives, and accept the negatives without allowing them to derail you. We all have the negatives. After all, if we were good at following the "healthy" rules, we wouldn't need to change our lifestyles in the first place.

I wish you the best of luck and I hope your determination stays strong!
