Actually, everyone is partying through the holidays with a count down to January 1 to start the New Year Resolution of losing weight. But don't wait for a date, get a jump on everyone by starting now. What successful losers know is that there is prep involved.

This is your weight loss journey log and it is guaranteed to help you be successful.
Write down the date and the amount you weigh. I know it's difficult to step on the scale and look, but no one else will be seeing this, only you. Be brave. This is for your health!
Take several measurements and record these on this first page of your weight loss journey log. At minimum these measurements should be chest/bust, waist, belly button level, and hip. Waist and belly button level are different. I do this in front of a mirror to determine where my waist is and then where my belly button actually is.
Good additions to these measurements are upper arm and upper thigh. But note which side of the body you are measuring and at what point. For example, I always do my right side, 6" up from my knee for my thigh measurement.
In your in your weight loss journey log, write these as a column and then add up. Scary big number, huh?! Great, because it's only going down from here.
Record what you eat. And this is when the notebook becomes as important as your cell phone. Just as you go nowhere without the phone, so this notebook must go everywhere. Do not rely on memory for this next step - it will fails us every time.
Everything you eat must be recorded.
When you eat must be recorded.
Where you eat must be recorded.
The above is the data that will unlock your weight loss success.
Do nothing else this week, except the above. Don't worry about what you eat (well, don't overindulge), but get in the habit of recording.
