Weight Loss Tip #5: Start a Journal

This is a really valuable tool to start using. What it does is get you back into reality. When I do initial consultations with clients it is so common for people to tell me all of the healthy habits they have and conveniently forget the other ones. Like, "oh yeah, I drink about 6 diet Cokes a day." or "I forgot, I eat a handful of chocolate covered nuts after every meal."

Writing everything down that passes your lips throughout the day (well maybe not everything), will get you conscious around certain habits, behaviors, that may have been causing your body to slowly pack on pounds.

Do this for at least one week.
