Take a sheet of paper and make two columns. Label one the "Benefits and reasons to lose weight" label the other "Benefits and reasons to stay fat"

Then list everything you can think of. for example the first column might have an entry that says "better health and improved self esteem" The second column might have an entry that says "I get to eat everything i want"

Then after you have put down everything you can think of post the list on your refrigerator, better yet make copies and put them everywhere in your house so that when you find it difficult to stay the course you will be reminded why it is worth persevering.

Just my 2 cents
