Many people discover for themselves that losing weight can be one of the hardest things to do. Indeed it is very rare for people to successfully lose a few pounds at the first time of asking. However when you make several further attempts, you may have a lot more success, and you almost certainly will when you set yourself a target date in the future when you hope to have hit your targets.
By this I mean that you should have a look at a calendar and pick a date when you absolutely must have achieved your desired amount of weight loss, whether it's three or four pounds, or as much as a stone in weight. This could be your birthday, an anniversary date, or Valentine's Day, for instance, which is now just a few weeks away.
When you set yourself a target date, you will generally find that you will be a lot more motivated to shed a few pounds and hit your targets. It is so much easier when you have something to aim at because you can dream about how you will look on this big day, and how happy you will be with your new appearance.
