Weight Loss/Struggling with weight?

first of all, you need to ask your doctor how much you should weigh and then make that your target and post little sticky notes with that goal weight on your refridgerator or snack cabinets, it really does help to stay motivated

second, clear out the unhealthy foods in your kitchen. you don't have to be wasteful and throw it all out but rather give it away to friends or donate it to local shelters, I'm sure they would appreciate it

to stay on track make sure to check the nutrition labels on foods when you go grocery shopping. if you like a particular type of food try to find the diet version and so that way you can treat yourself after a long day's workout. if you aren't really into healthy food I suggest picking up a few new healthy snacks that you have never tried before and making it a point to taste a new food everyday so that you can get a more balanced diet and who knows? you could turn out liking it more than some of your more usual snack-foods

if you have a problem with the excersise aspesct of weight loss then try to enlist a friend to go jogging with you or plan gym days where you work out for about 45-60 minutes a day. aftwards you can bond over a manicure or mini-shopping trip to boost your confidence

my special little trick is chewing a lot of gum, sometimes people just eat because theyr bored or nervous, but chewing gum takes your mind off of eating

my mom is a super health nut so I've had the job of helping a few friends out with their weight loss escapades. I hope I helped:)

For me the key was establishing a pattern and then not breaking it. I'd eat lite meals on days I didn't work out, and allow myself heavier meals or treats only on days that I did. I worked out every other day, whether I was tired or feeling lousy or whatever. I just refused to let myself fail. I was tired of feeling heavy and drilled it into my head that if I slacked off, that's exactly what I was going to be.
