Enjoy the process.
There will always be a new goal, a different challenge or a new hurdle to jump over when it comes to weight loss, or anything worth having in life.
But the key to any goal is consistency.
Fall in love with "The process" of getting healthier.
Learn what you like to do for exercise. Learn what you like to eat that's healthy. Learn about how to do it better, and realize the little milestones you achieve along the way.
Nothing happens overnight, so enjoy the process. This will help you maintain your progress long-term.
We are all trying to achieve something, and there will always be something to learn and to get better at.. a new goal to achieve, so enjoying and really being comfortable within the process is really the key to long-term health and fitness.
Hope this helps someone today.

You are so right... I was overweight this time last year and inactive. Now I'm a healthy weight, active and about to take part in a 10k fun run on the weekend. I am happier than I have been in a long time and love the way this whole process has made me feel about myself that I don't want to lose that feeling. I have now set new goals and look forward to achieving them in the near future0

Thanks for the comment and congratulations on your own success!0 -
Agreed. It's good to embrace the journey. Learning to see it as long term instead of a temporary, seasonal thing . Working on being discipline. Its great to have motivation but I feel like discipline is more important because sometimes we may lose motivation but discipline keeps us staying consistent (especially when we dont feel like doing it)! At the same time, we motivate each other!

Good post.
I would argue that it's not always possible to enjoy the process, sometimes you don't feel good, but you can always enjoy the knowledge that your doing what needs to be done.0 -
