The longest trip imaginable still begins with the first step. It doesn't matter how long the trip may take or what might happen on the way, the journey will never begin until the traveler takes the first step. Weight loss is a little like making the decision to get control of your debts. Most people look at the whole amount rather than realizing how important that first decision and initial payment is. The important thing is keep making those payments! Don't stop. The same is true with losing weight. Stop looking at where you dream of being. Don't look at a hundred or fifty or ten pounds. Look at the decision and make it. Tomorrow when you rise, reaffirm your decision. It's a brand new day.
Above all else, you must find somewhere within you the determination to take control of your health for yourself. You cannot do this for your spouse, your children, your parents or anyone else. Weight loss must be your desire and plan. Fads change quickly, that's why they're called fads. Dieting is a fad. It sells. Sure it's fun to do things with friends, but trying to lose weight with friends will pass as quickly as the need for that new pair of shoes. Life change decisions have to be more than a fad.
Since you are going to genuinely move toward weight loss for yourself, don't be afraid to take a quiet but determined look at who you really are. What are the components that make up the real you? When you're alone, are you comfortable or do you have to be with a crowd all the time? What are the things that helped bring you to the place you are now, needing to lose weight? If those things are not resolved, then dealing with the weight issue will only be topical. Weight change that lasts must begin with a change on the inside. You have to learn to know and see yourself for who you really are, not what you have allowed others to make you.
Once you have made this important decision for yourself, your strength rising from the inside will affect everything you do, not just weight loss. This new motivation will spring out and bring energy to every area of your life. The excitement you feel will not just be from the realization you are actually losing weight, it will be the result of a deep change that has happened as a result of you doing it for yourself.
