The Forever Rule

It’s January. The month of waiting in line for treadmills, Nutri-system commercials on all channels and half-price Lean Cuisines. The whole world seems to sit up and take notice that THIS month, and no other month of the year, is THE month to get skinny, people. So, I thought I would jump on the January Bandwagon and introduce my very own special, get it while it’s hot new years resolution weight loss tip.

Drum roll please?

My advice to all you motivated, determined folks out there signing up for discount gym memberships and filling up your cart with Progresso Light and is to learn, embrace and practice but one teensy little rule for weight loss: The Forever Rule.

The Forever Rule: If you aren’t willing to do it forever, don’t do it now.

Unless you just so happen to love the process of weight loss, and don’t mind going through it four, five, twenty times in your life… the one and only key to long-term weight loss and maintenance is to abide by the forever rule. Anything you do to lose weight: eating habits you change, foods you eat, exercises you implement: you must be willing to do for the rest of your life. That’s the only way the weight is going to stay off.

Find ways to implement changes through small, baby steps. Steps you can live with – forever. That’s they key to keeping the weight off – forever.
