Set specific and realistic weight loss goals

Keep a weight loss diary

Keeping a record of what you eat and how much you exercise can help you understand your habits and track your progress toward your weight loss goals.

To control your diet and exercise, you can record it in a notebook or smartphone applications. With this habit, you can track your daily progress in the weight loss process.

Have a companion in the weight loss process

Having support from others can make a huge difference in your weight loss journey. This could be a spouse, friend, family member, or co-worker.

Having someone to accompany you on your weight loss journey will give you more motivation and accountability. You can also join classes and groups to listen and share with others who are on the same weight loss journey as you.

Change your workout

Instead of the same old, boring exercises, you can try a new form of exercise. Finding an activity that you really enjoy will make it easier for you to maintain your exercise routine.

Incorporating new types of exercise provides a challenge and helps you avoid boredom. This makes weight loss more effective.

Limiting the use of electronic devices can help you lose weight

People often complain that they don't have enough time to exercise or prepare healthy meals. In fact, people often spend a lot of time watching TV or using computers for entertainment.

Track your screen time for a week. Then, try to cut it down to a quarter or a third and dedicate that time to your weight loss goals.
