Just because you have exercised and have 'earnt' extra calories for the day, it doesnt mean you have to use them!0
-
Read books, internet, watch TV shows and learn that not all things will work for everyone.
Diet, eat to live and not live to eat.
Drink tons of water.
Listen to your stomach, it will tell you when it's ready to eat and not your eyes.
Eat things that are good for you but not because it taste so good.
last one, you didn't gain your weight in a day or a week so don't expect to lose it all in a day or a week.0 -
Great tips!0

Don't make anything "off limits" because then you will want it a 1000 times more than you would otherwise, but log even if you fall off the wagon and have too much pizza. Just be HONEST with yourself about you goals. Don't let anyone else tell you what your version of healthy and sexy is supposed to be.
Also, the key bit for me? Expect some anxiety as you learn to find new habits. It feels pretty weird at first, not to have a sandwich when you are frustrated or need a break.0 -
Set an ultimate weight lost goal but break it up into smaller mini goals with a general deadline that you want to reach it by ( ex. I want to lose 30 pounds total but want to lose 10 of those by the time opening weekend of baseball and as a reward I'll treat myself to see a game. I've lost 7 of the first 10 so far and still has a couple weeks to go!) Smaller goals set within your bigger goal seems more obtainable and feels like you are making faster progress.0

I would say: Don't give up. Forgive yourself for slip ups and keep the goal in sight and just keep pushing towards it.0

LOVE YOURSELF YOUR WORTH IT0

EXERCISE AND DRINK WATER!0

It only takes a little...
Eat a little less,
Eat a little "healthier,"
Move a little more.0 -
Brush your teeth after your last evening meal to stop late night snacking.0

Do not make any changes that you wouldn't be willing to continue for the rest of your life. That way you will find a way to eat that is sustainable and you will be able to maintain. I have learned this the hard way.0

I would say its 70% Diet and 30% Excercise!!!!0
