Cliffs Notes of Weight Loss:
- Weight loss happens in THE KITCHEN, fitness happens in the gym
- small, sustainable changes
- Understand weight fluctuations are normal. Thinks of a roller coaster, not a steep mountain slope down. Some weeks up, some weeks down. Its the OVERALL TREND that matters
- Learn to weigh your food ON A FOOD SCALE
- Learn how to find ACCURATE DATABASE ENTRIES
- BE ACTIVE - get off your butt and MOVE. Find SOMETHING you enjoy. If your activity is limited, find ways to move that you are ABLE to do
- Deprivation is the key to Binging and falling off the wagon. Learn how to fit your favorite things in regularly. There are no 'bad foods' Just 'bad quantities'.
- One 'bad' day will not undo your deficit.
- You did not gain the weight quickly. You will not lose it quickly. Better to lose it slowly, and KEEP IT OFF, then lose it quick, and gain it all back and more!
