    In my experience, the people that tend to fail, or stop, start, stop, start are people that restrict their food to heavily and exercise too hard. Their bodies give out and their minds give up.

    1. Don't do anything that you can't maintain for the rest of your life. It's ok to be a little aggressive in the beginning, but don't go nuts. If you don't think you can give up pizza forever, then you need to learn how to work it in. If you don't think that you are going to work out 7 days a week for the rest of your life, then don't start doing it now.

    2. You need to have fitness goals to focus on besides weight loss and a plan to go with it. Whether it be train to run a 5k, Train for a bicycle vacation. Learn a martial art etc. Train for a fitness competition. This is so that when your weight loss goals don't go the way you expect, you have other goals to focus on while the weight loss takes it's break. No. Your fitness goal can not be associated with weight loss.
