[T1203]Track Your Weight Loss
by Cathy Wilson, Cat

Weight loss goals are important. Your dreams of wearing a particular size or seeing a specific number on the scale are also important. Are these weight loss goals and dreams someplace that you can see them? Do you have a visual reminder of what you want? Take it out of your head and create a weight loss vision board.

A weight loss vision board is a great tool to consider a work in progress as you lose weight, get closer to your goal, change habits, experience successes along the way, or even photographs. You can put photos of you, pictures from magazines of a body that you'd like to achieve, meaningful words or pictures from magazines that inspire or motivate you. If something is of significant importance or meaning to you, it will keep you focused. It will be a reminder of your weight loss goals and can be included on the board.

Take a photograph of yourself every month. As you lose weight, place the photos reflecting your progress of a smaller body size. Another tip is to wear the same clothes each month for the photo. Again, as you lose weight, you'll see the clothes becoming loose and then baggy. This is another great way to keep motivated by seeing how far you've come.

Include a photograph of you at a smaller body size. Cut out a photo with a body size you'd like as your own goal. Put your face on that body for a motivating visual.

If you want to exercise more, cut pictures that motivate you such as a toned body, a photo of someone exercising, hiking, walking or running, or other mementos of inspiration to you.

Make a graph of your starting weight and keep track of your progress. Show your goal weight as well so you see yourself moving closer and closer to it on your graph.

A client that I work with has created her own weight loss vision board. She hung it in her kitchen which has been a very effective way to stay on track. At times that she's been tempted or even headed to the kitchen, she sees her weight loss vision board front and center. It has saved her from many extra calories and pounds, and kept her motivation and confidence high that she will achieve her weight loss goal.

Make a visual reminder of motivation and inspiration by creating your own weight loss vision board. Create a visual center that updates and changes often as you lose weight. Have fun with it as you create it and update it to reflect your personal change and weight loss. Be creative; think big, think out of the box in whatever you place on your weight loss vision board. When it comes to any goals and success, see it to believe it. When you see it - you can be it!


As we all know, losing weight is not all that easy. It would be great if all you had to do in order to lose weight would be to eat less for a while and exercise more. If this were true you would simply control your eating habits or take up some sport or join a gym and lose all the weight you want. Unfortunately, you know that it's not that simple.

Fad diets or a strenuous exercise programs or severe diets just don't work in the long haul. You can't stay with them and you quickly gain back the all the weight and possibly more. You can end up with muscle aches, low energy and general depression. It's discouraging, isn't it?

What does work? Change in the way you think. Change your patterns of thinking and living, the basic way you think about yourself, your body and your life, and then change your entire life in accordance with your transformed way of thinking. As you change your way of thinking and relating to yourself and others, you will find that you automatically change your entire life for the better. You can supercharge your weight loss program by learning successful ways to take charge of your life as well as your thoughts and feelings. You can now alter your living and eating patterns to achieve the healthy and attractive body that is your natural birthright.

Change is essential. It is also extremely difficult for most of us. If you have tried many different diet plans without much success or you have trouble getting motivated to exercise, perhaps some powerful help can work wonders for you. How can you get this help?

Supercharge your weight loss program by learning the techniques of self hypnosis and guided meditation. How does it work? Guided meditation works to relieve stress. Positive affirmations work to build self confidence. Hypnosis works by training your mind to think differently about yourself as a whole, including losing weight.

Self hypnosis gives you an effortless and natural form of positive self control; the kind that automatically manages your urge to eat, so you easily and naturally eat the right foods at the right time. You also find yourself adopting easy and natural ways to care for your body, like getting the exercise that is exactly right for you. You gradually and steadily become a more relaxed and attractive person. Hypnosis is all about reprogramming your subconscious mind for weight reduction and permanent and effortless weight control.

We all know how hard it is to break old habits and undo the things that have caused us to gain weight in the first place. But it's certainly not impossible. All it takes is a little patience and a powerful helper, like Guided Meditation and Self Hypnosis.

We plan meals, we balance our checkbooks and we schedule events around our family time. Now's the time to take charge of your weight, your health, and your enjoyment of life!

To your weight loss success!
