A little trick I learned from my leader was to write, on my tracker, all my treats in red pen. This highlights the amount of treats you are eating and it is easier for you to see exactly how many points you are using on
treats. You should always plan your three main meals first. Make good hearty meals with foods that will keep you fuller for longer. Then once you have done that, you can see how many points you have left and you can allow for treats.
Photos are a great motivator. I recently did up a collage
of photos with pre weight loss pictures, pictures
from when I lost the weight
and pictures since I put the weight back on. I am gutted at how I look now. I had done so well but it does show me that I did it once, I can do it again.
That collage is now my background picture on my laptop so I can see it all the
time.
Another trick I learned from my leader was to set up a few
alarms on your phone. You set them up for times that the cravings tend to kick
in. You can name them whatever you like. She suggested naming them after her so
it is like she is calling you to remind you to be good. I have on mine 200lbs
and heavier since January. This is to remind me that I am now in the 200lbs and
if I keep going I was be reaching the 300lbs.

Changing things up is so important. The weight loss
journey is a long one and you need to make sure you do not get bored. Make
sure you are regularly changing your meals around and not eating the same foods
all the time. If you are eating the same things all the time then you are more
likely to give up. The internet is your best friend. You can Google recipes.
They do not necessarily have to be low fat as you can adjust them yourself to
make them WW friendly. The same applies to exercise. You will eventually get
bored of the exercise you do. One way to keep your exercise fresh is to try out
classes with friends or go for a run/walk with your friends. You will not get
bored and they can help motivate you as well.
Tomorrow's post will conclude with more advice and tips for helping you through your journey.
