If you embarked on a weight-loss journey at the beginning of the year, then your resolve might be weakening at the two-week mark. Help yourself by keeping your goals in mind, regardless of where you are. Use 5 by 7 note cards with daily reminders. Once you devise a list of healthy habits, write them down and post them throughout the house. Whether it's on the bathroom mirror or on the refrigerator door, plastering your goals in different places will keep your goals fresh in your mind. In the kitchen, you might post a list of diet-friendly snacks that the pantry contains on the door. The same goes for the refrigerator.
On the freezer, try posting a list of the lean meats that you have in storage. These lists of what you can eat will keep you less focused on those foods that you can't eat. In the bathroom, leave yourself a note on the mirror with some sort of positive affirmation about your appearance. In your closet, a note about what size you'd like to be is a great way to keep your goal in mind as you get dressed. A note at your desk might remind you not to cave into vending machine cravings. Get creative and use the reminders to help you stay positive and motivated. These gentle reminders are a great way to help you stay on top of things.
