2. Use a calendar to track temptation.

When you look at your daily planner, you may just see some birthday parties, holidays or a vacation. What I see? All opportunities for “falling off” and assorted food temptations. If an important event or holiday is coming up, or even a simple night out with friends, write it down and plan accordingly. Decide what you will eat beforehand (most restaurants have menus online) and stick to your nonnegotiables.

3. Acknowledge your success.

Who doesn’t love a thoughtful note of thanks or appreciation?! Give yourself credit for making progress toward your weight loss goals. Research shows that people who BELIEVE they’ll be successful at losing weight really are more successful at losing weight. Building this type of belief comes from acknowledging your success along the journey, not just when you reach your destination. Make time to write down how you’ve been successful – pounds lost, inches lost, resisting that dessert you wanted and any short-term goals you’ve reached.

There’s no one right way to lose weight quickly, but adding the “write way” to your fitness mix will only help.
