The key to achieving weight loss success

Well, if you think I have that key, I really don’t. I do know that calories out need to be more than calories in….blah blah blah. We all know that. Why are so many of us still struggling to lose weight, if it is that simple? Why is the weight loss a billion dollar industry? What is really the key to success?

Why I am failing at my weight loss quest…

I am an all or nothing type of person. I will follow a rigid plan of not allowing myself any junk food and exercising everyday, no exceptions and I do this for as long as possible. And when I fail, because I always do, I am so hard on myself. Well, I can’t make my life work like that, no one can!

I need to realize that there are days that are good, following the healthy plan and some plain old days there is no way I can squeeze a workout in, extra cookie, yes, workout, no. Rather than tossing all my good intentions out the window for a week once I slip up, I need to get right back on the healthy wagon the very next day.

I need to find a plan that’s flexible and works for me. I need to change my perspective on how to reach my weight loss goal and I will be on my way to a whole new happier me! Darn it, us woman can’t do it all!

Does this sound like you?

How do you cope when days let you down? Eat more? Go for a Run? Wine? Bath? OK, don’t tell me about the food or the wine…healthy coping on a hard day is what I really meant ; )
