So true about number 7 to think long term about weight loss.
I’m obsessed with losing as many kilos as possible but I’m not thinking about it gradually.

I think I am the same…want to get “thinner” and don’t think about the big picture. I’m trying to change that though. Just kinda startling for that to be there, black and white, as a tip b/c it should be so blatant…but it’s not.

@iwantmysexyback, I also agree that willpower is not enough either!
I don’t agree that simply wanting to do something will make it work because I have tried that but end up reaching for McVities Rich Teas instead.
Keep up the good work with your blog.

People must be conscious enough of the state of thier body. Doing some physical exercises at the nearest gym would help a lot in improving a healthy and strong body.
