Key Points
- Most people who struggle with their weight have done so for years, so it’s very easy for them to give up almost immediately when they don’t see visible results from a new weight loss program right away. To combat this, practice celebrating small wins. In this way, you won’t have to deal with the overwhelming challenge of going from hating your body to loving it in a short time. Instead, you’ll learn to go from hating your body to simply accepting it as you progress through your weight loss journey.
- The biggest obstacle to weight loss is the perfectionist, or all-or-nothing mindset. Health and wellness is a lifelong journey. Accept that some days are going to be worse than others, and that you won’t be able to predict when those down days happen.
- Supplements are just that: supplemental to your weight loss plan. Focus on the big rocks, or the foundational elements without which ingesting all the greatest supplements in the world are rendered useless. Those foundational elements are: consistent training, consistent sleep, eating fewer calories than you burn in a day, drinking plenty of water, and getting plenty of steps in every day.
