How many times do we say that to ourselves? It's amazing how little it takes to get you feeling like you're off track. Whether it's a Big Mac and fries or a candy bar, we psych ourselves into believing the day is shot. I've always found that for me, every time I said tomorrow, tomorrow became the following monday.
I work for a major corporation as a weight loss consultant. Oh boy, was I reluctant to admit that! I never even imagined it could actually be more difficult to follow a diet regimen when you're talking abot it all. day. long. And I get to know all of these people I see everyday personally, and I go on these journeys with them, and I give them the tools they need to make THEIR goals a reality. I think of all these men and women that I help, that've lost 30, 40, 50lbs and are still going, and I look back to the begin of their journey, and realize I've gained a pound since then. Why is the best advice we can give nearly impossible to take ourselves?
I find that having an event to push for is the good kind of pressure that seems to keep most people pushing, and on track. I'm trying to set myself up with a series of mini goals and significant dates to help me along the way.
So, what do you all think? Do you have a specific event coming that keeps you motivated?
