Gut buster #6 - weigh in

How do you measure success?  It's difficult to actually be successful at something without a goal or metric with which to rate ones progress.  For healthier living it may be the number of vegetables and fruit you eat a day, or how often you work out each week, but one way to be certain is to weigh yourself.  If weight lose is your goal, this is a sure fire way to be successful - 75% success rate!

BUT do not focus on the number alone because muscle weights more than fat and the best way to lose fat is to gain muscle which is essence will increase your overall weight initially.

FOCUS on healthy measurable life changes like the ones listed above - eating vegetables several times a day, working out at least four times a week for at least thirty minutes at a time, etc.

Failure to plan is planning to FAIL!  Without specific goals, you will not succeed.


"Weighing yourself at least once a week will make your diet a success.  3 out of 4 dieters who weighted themselves once a week stuck with it." ~ MH
