After a few weeks into a weight loss plan, it’s time to reassess your goals and be honest about your progress. Ask yourself these questions:
- Am I happy with my current weight?
- Why do I want to lose the weight?
- Am I willing to make the sacrifices to meet my goals?
As you evaluate your goals and make adjustments:
- Stay focused on being healthy, not just on getting thin. Select foods that will keep you healthy rather than just how they affect your weight.
- Don’t expect perfection! Weight loss is not easy and just like any other goal; we have setbacks along the way. This is a journey. Know that you cannot and will not be perfect everyday and don’t put that expectation on yourself. This is about living a healthier lifestyle and focusing on doing the best we can each day.
- When you make less than perfect food choices, avoid letting this spiral out of control and eating poorly the rest of the day. You will feel much better and back in control by not allowing yourself to make another mistake. Use this opportunity to take a bad situation and make it better!
