Focus on what you can do to change your life as you see fit.
A Vision statement can help keep you on your path

There are always reasons that people want to lose weight and it is never to just look good. It is for health, get back that sense of control, gain confidence or even just have a better quality of life. You have to figure out why it is important to you. The number on the scale should honestly not be important. We need to get past how that number defines us as people and as our accomplishments.

If you are like everyone else you believe that losing weight will make life easier for you and then you can really live it like you always wanted to. We know that is not true. We need to do it for a solid reason of why. And the “why” will be different for each person. It could be to help fix medical problems or prevent them. Trying to live longer to see the grandchildren grow. Have more strength and ability to do activities. It could be just the confidence to walk into a crowded room and when people turn to look at you, you don’t want to scream “don’t look at me”, you want scream “you think this side looks good you should take at look at this.” as you spin in circles.

But whatever your reasons to be losing weight they have to be yours! There is one thing that will help you achieve that goal, it is the small goals to get there but the main goal has to be kept in your sights. Keeping your motivation long term it is hard but the end results are always worth it.
People always lose sight of the final goal. We are always so worried about what is on the scale and the drama of the ups and downs. When you focus on that, you start stressing about it and it makes you an emotional mess. Hello to emotional eating.
We always believe that you need to lose weight before you can do anything else. When you reach your goal weight you being lighter doesn’t solve the problems or the situations that you thought your weight loss would “cure”. Which then makes us go back to our old ways. If you think that this will be solution to all your problems, think again. If you don’t change your ways and stop worrying about how much weight you have lost on your weigh in days. You lose the reason of why you started on this journey.
Something I recommend is to set up a Vision Statement. Your statement should tell you WHY you want to lose weight. And WHY your efforts to succeed is worth it. It can have general elements (feeling good about yourself), but the big picture should be more specific. You can do this if you ask yourself questions like:What would my “perfect” day look like. Explain everything in that day, from the time you get up, to what happens during the day, to going to sleep. Have what you will eat, who you will spend the day with. You should even put down how you will handle any speed bumps that you may have in your daily life.
What are my personal morals/values,(family, interest, career, success, strength, friendships, giving to others, etc.) What do I want my life to show? You should rank these morals/values as if you had to choose between them at any given moment.
What do I want my life to look like in 1-5 years? You need to explain what you want to be doing, the kind of things you want to take on, how you want to see yourself, etc.
This vision statement can help keep you on your path. It should have Inspiration and Direction on how to get there. These questions are just to get you thinking. Your vision can include your beliefs and a question of “Why is losing weight is so important in my life goals?”.
Your vision statement should tell you what else needs to change within yourself and your life to get you to where you want to be. And I am talking besides your weight!! And don’t be surprised that your statement will take on a new direction as you start to change. I am not telling you to get down on the way things are now. Focus on what you can do to change your life as you see fit.
Be kind to Yourself!!
