Your diary — How it works
The diary is an invaluable aid in reaching your target-weight. Putting your goals in writing will motivate you tremendously in achieving them. That’s the success secret of weight-loss groups — and what works in these groups will work just as well on the Internet.
Try the following tips:
1. Answer these questions before starting your diary.
-- How much weight do you want to lose?
-- What is the timeframe for reaching your target weight?
-- How do you want to accomplish your goal (what methods do you want to use)?
-- Who or what can support you in reaching your goal?
-- How realistic is your goal?
-- When will you start?
(Suggestion: print this page and think about the questions when you have a few moments of peace and quiet.)
2. Post the answers to these questions in your weight-loss.fitness.com diary. This exercise will make your goals come to life and feel more realistic.
3. Begin your own diary. Simply click on the “New Thread” button, put your name and “diary” in the subject field (e.g., “Sandra’s diary”) and type your goals into the message box. Make sure to include your starting weight — be honest, it will help you and other members.
4. Stick to it! Once you begin your diary, you’ve already accomplished a huge step toward your target weight — but you must use it regularly. It’s wise to write in your diary on a daily basis, especially at the beginning of the process. Record successes and failures. Ask other members for advice and share your feelings. You’ll notice how helpful and supportive your diary will become.
