    The key to losing weight is to just do it. Stop making excuses. Stop eating crappy foods, stop feeling the need to cheat on your diet. I was ADDICTED to carbs and sugar. Addicted. I made excuses for my whole life. Yo yo dieted my whole life. I would start a diet and then fail a few weeks later. It wasn't until I just deciced enough is enough. I have lost 51.8 pounds in 4 months. I am strict keto, I haven't cheated at all. You HAVE to make it a choice. It's your CHOICE to eat right. Your body and your hunger does not control you. You control you. Its a mindset. I tried finding the "key" my whole life. Its all about willpower.

    I like this idea.

    The key to happiness is coming to a realisation that happiness is fleeting. Happiness doesn't work when you're not happy. What's better than happiness is living a meaningful life. Sacrificing what seems good right now for the betterment of tomorrow and the days after. Bargain with the future through sacrifice. The best thing is you get to choose your sacrifice.

    The key to happiness is...

    King Solomon famously went on a quest for happiness. He sought knowledge, wisdom, wealth, gardening, building cities, sleeping with women, drinking and reveling, collecting horses (car collecting), entertainment. He said all of it was like chasing after the wind. His depressing story is found in the book of Ecclesiastes.

    He finally found that happiness was to obey God, enjoy your food and enjoy your work.

    Something that also helped is a book called "How to be Happy No Matter What: Things your therapist never told you." It made some great points about not evaluating your life when you're in a bad mood, and how to recognize that you are in a bad mood, not a bad life, and about separate realities of humans. Two humans, same situation, different perspectives.

    I'll get back to you on that one when I figure it out. LOL. Just kidding. The key is...DON'T QUIT. Go slower if you must, but DON'T QUIT!

    Or

    The key to my heart...

    Only God has that. <3<3<3 (See your first question :):):) )

    The key to happiness is to stop waiting for the correct alignment of stars to produce the right conditions... I'll be happy when I lose 20 lbs... I'll be happy when I get a raise... buy a new car... win the lottery... whatever. It's to find happiness in the little things that surround you here and now.

    That is great advice!

    The key to losing weight is.....train your mind and your body will follow. Kind of works for a lot of things. People tend do do the opposite because they are impatient.

    Wow! Powerful.

    There's a good way and a bad way to do that 😜
    Can someone please explain this to my innocent, pure, wholesome mind?
