Write Your Way To Faster Weight Loss?

All of us who start on a weight loss journey will need what?

Motivation.

Motivation and inspiration is something that will keep us focused and driven on our goals to achieve great health and a great body.

That's where the pen and paper comes in. Keeping a journal of our weight loss journey is great for motivation and education.

Having a journal chronicling your weight loss journey is an excellent way to keep you motivated and educated due to the fact you are SEEING your progress, your mistakes, and more.

Some examples of what you could write down would be:

• What are you eating through out the day?
• How many calories did you consume from not just food, but also from drinks, additives (cream, sugar, condiments), etc.
  
• Did you have any food cravings, and what did you do about it?
  
• How much water did you have to drink?
  
• How long did you sleep last night?
  
• What exercises did you do?
• How long were the exercises?
• How much weight are you currently lifting and how many reps, etc.?
• And more.
  

By having all of this written down, it will be a reminder as to why you started on this journey to improve your body in the first place. Also, having a journal will help you keep track of those 'little' things that can contribute to possible weight gain, and those 'smart' things that you've underestimated that can contribute to successful weight loss (such as getting adequate sleep).

With having a journal, you will have an answer as to why you are either NOT losing weight or you ARE losing weight.

Another pointer would be to have a book journal and not one you write on your computer.....even if it's a laptop. Having a book journal is great since you can carry it with you to read it, and write in it anywhere and at anytime.

Record your journey and you'll be surprised by how effective having a journal could be, by giving you a written "picture" of your efforts for faster weight loss and to improve your overall health.
