Death to Discouragement! by Randy Mclean

Alright, so you started your new diet, you have the 'eye of the tiger' (again), and you are all excited. "This time it's gonna work" you say to yourself. The first day isn't so bad, and the second day you still have a little of that fire you originally set out with... But when day three comes that's when you start to feel the same feelings of discouragement and despair that you might have felt in the past.

Hopefully, this is your first time out but with many dieters it is a common problem. This article will teach you how to put those thoughts and feelings into perspective. It is usually the same with everyone but in varying degrees. Depending on your will power it will be more or less. Here are some great guidelines and tips to help you on your way to achieving your goals:

1. Keep focussed on your goals - This is the first and foremost priority for anyone who is undertaking a weight loss program. A common thought that will come into mind when we start to get discouraged is "why am I doing this?" I'm sure most of us have been there before. Therefore we must keep track of our goals. Write them down if you have to. Things like:

- What do I want to achieve?

- How long do I think it will take?

- What do I want to look like?
