weight loss and focus

The gaining of weight requires no thought processes, concentration or focus. Basically, do what is fun, do not think about caloric content and place your thoughts on everything else in your life without regard to your dietary intake. This will result in weight gain. Easy, simple and basically a "no-brainer".

However, to lose weight, one must place lots of thought into this and focus. Moreover, the actions required to lose weight, such as planning meals, foregoing high-caloric food sources, giving up that glass of wine at night...all of these are not "fun".

Focus is required to lose weight and when that focus is lost, we start losing the weekly battles. Try to maintain your focus and remember at all times why it is so important for you to lose weight.

Can't wait to get back home. These many trips are causing me to slip back into some bad habits. Need to re-focus and get on track. Really want to start cooking again and exercising on a regular basis. These trips back to where I grew up seem to bring back some bad habits!
