Focus on what you can eat instead of what you can't.
This is SOOOO important. So many people focus on what they can't eat and get frustrated.0 -
Awesome! Thanks for sharing! I will definately keep all of these in mind!0

I regard exercise just like a shower. It is a necessary part of daily life. And on the rare occasion when you don't, that's fine too.0

Look at myself..... naked.0

Log everything I eat and make sure I'm under on the calories. I stay focused on that and give myself pep talks/verbal beat-downs if I go over......"C'mon man....you can DO this...don't tell me your arms are so weak you can't push away from the table !!"...that kind of thing...;o)0

Log every day, set fitness goals, not just weight goals - and remember that, in Texas, bikini season lasts for at least 6 months out of the year.

Wired my jaw shut!!
Alternatively, looking in the mirror nekkid seems to work well as an appetite suppressant0 -
High protien, low sodium. I weigh and measure everything too. Take my lunch to work, I am the fat girl at work . I only work with 6 other women so its really obvious so that keeps me going.0

I keep my carbs low (under 100 grams)- six days per week.0

Prepare! Even tho it's a PITA, i pack my breakfast, lunch and snacks every night to take the work the next day. If you already have something healthy to eat right in your lunch bag, you're far less likely to run out to get fast food.0

There are many things I can eat but choose not to. Keeping the carbs balanced and sometimes low.
And, keeping the activity level high so there is always a deficit. Worked well enough to get to goal weight and will likely keep me there.0 -
I remind myself that this is a lifestyle change I am making. I am not dieting. This is not a temporary fix, and I am not depriving myself. Rather, I am making better choices (staying within calorie budgets, exercising, etc.) so that I can be healthier0

Watch wat u eat, look i mean take a good look at ur diary, it will speak to u.0
-
Log all of my food. If I do that, I lose easily enough. It's when I get out of the habit that weight creeps back on, ever so slowly.0
-
Preparation for meals, log everything, and eat lots and lots and lots of veggies! By focusing on adding more fruits, and especially vegetables, to my diet, I really haven't had to worry a lot about what I'm not eating!0

i stand on the scale every morning sometime more thru out the day depending on my numbers it helps me stay or get back on track and it also reminds me to drink my water to help flush out the extra0
