Way #3  Diversify your Dream

God must have wanted us to diet, because He makes the first few days so exciting.  Losing close to twelve pounds in three days leads to heady thoughts such as "if I can keep this up for x more days, I'll weigh y pounds".  Of course, experienced dieters (and aren't all dieters experienced?) know this fast start is short lived and due to water loss, colon cleansing and little to do with fat loss.  But it is fun, none the less :)

Be assured, the doldrums of little to no weight loss, sometimes for weeks at a time, are coming.  That is why it is important to have multiple objectives, to have greater chances for those little victories that keep you going.

My goals of 100 pounds, 100 miles and building a wellness business gives me lots positive outlets and short term objectives.

Here are just a few ideas for positive feedback:
- pounds, inches, % body fat, bmi
- speed, distance, minutes of aerobic activities
- reps, minutes, circuits, weight in strength training
