The Weight Loss Starting Line

Icon_tip_1

Congratulations on starting your weight loss journey. Committing to this change will place you on the path to a new body and a healthier lifestyle.

Over the next 30 days, you can expect to:

  • Set realistic goals with weight loss advice from the best experts.
  • Add healthy foods to your diet.
  • Make, and stick to, a fun exercise routine.
  • Learn to appreciate your body.


The first step to weight loss is accepting the truth. So dust off that scale and jot down the resulting figure in a journal. Be honest! Also, record your waist, hips, chest, thigh and arm circumference measurements.

Hold on that notebook. In the coming weeks, you'll use it to track your progress and your diet.

DID YOU KNOW?
Americans spend more than $33 billion on diet products annually. Unfortunately, 95% of people who are able to lose weight on those diets put it all back on—and more—within five years.

Hey all.
Glad to hear so many are taking up this challenge. Here are my thoughts: Diets don't really work, all the slim people I know have life long healthy habits rather then a membership with a diet plan. It takes a month to form a habit so hopefully I'll have good habits by the end of this. Most importantly I've found it easier when I'm telling a few people I want to be trimmer and fitter because it makes me more accountable. Does anyone else have any tips?
Good luck to you all, I know that most people can get slimmer!
