Think positive.

One thing that I have noticed with weight loss clients is that they have a tendency to put themselves down. And that includes their achievement. When you lose your first 5 pounds, be proud of yourself. Don't focus on the fact that you still have a lot to lose.

So, what do you focus on? Your shortcomings and defeats? Do you wonder why it keeps coming back? Would it be so hard to focus on what is going right? You have to acknowledge your daily success. Make a list of what went well today. At home in the morning, your commute, your work day, lunch time, your workout, etc... Make an effort to write down all the good stuff that happens in the day. It will change your outlook.

We are what we think. All that we are arises with our thoughts. With our thoughts, we make the world - Buddha
