Do Look Back
Avoid beating yourself up over previous weight-loss attempts. Instead, think back to what worked and what did not, and apply those lessons to now. How much weight did you lose and in what period of time? Were you able to maintain that weight loss? Were you physically active? Did you have social support as you worked toward your goals? When you use positive experiences from the past to support your current efforts you’ll find that they can make your work easier.
