Until we own the problem we can't fix the problem. We are fat because of our actions in the past, both through dietary and exercise habits. And we need to then realize that if we made ourselves the way we are, we can unmake ourselves and create a new future for ourselves. This might be the most empowering thing you read today. The power to change is in your hands and no one else's. If you want rapid weight loss, you and you alone are in charge. To fix the problem you have to replace bad habits with good habits. Get up 45 minutes earlier each day and go for a brisk walk, and I mean brisk, not an amble. Get the heart pumping and the circulation working. To start with this is as much as you can probably do if your lifestyle has been very sedentary. With time add interval training, swimming or whatever sport you enjoy. Just move it!
Now you can start burning calories and start losing fat. Exercise acts in a two fold manner. Firstly it burns up calories and calories equals fat. Secondly it releases endorphins into the body which act as appetite suppressants and you actually eat less and feel fuller.
Get a friend (or several) at work who are ready to support your efforts to lose weight. Get a friend at the gym you are attending or a training partner when you go walking, running or whatever works for you. Get as many positive people supporting you in your fat-loss efforts as possible. The more people standing in your corner the better your chance of success. Your support group is there to inspire you and encourage you, particularly when you are struggling with your day and need a boost. They will also (if they are real friends) give you a swift kick in the seat of your pants when you get slack or start whining. They will hold you accountable in other words. Excuses that are lame just won't cut it with them.
Get a great weight loss program and stick to it. The Internet is a wealth of available information. Use it.

Rule #3: Give toxicity the flick
Rule #3: Empty out all the toxic junk out of your life.
Toxic food, toxic relationships, toxic people - they will all conspire to undo your best efforts to change. I believe a good support group is vital to your success in achieving weight loss. Equally I believe that toxic people can undo the best of intentions. They are envious of your new determination. In fact your new attitude challenges their laziness and makes them see themselves in the mirror as the slobs they really are. To help you they will tell you horror stories of people that they know (or a close friend knows) who took up exercise and dropped dead. Just to be helpful you understand! They may even bring in donuts for the morning coffee break for a treat. Don't be fooled. They want to undermine you. You need to make it very clear that you will not listen to drivel, you won't play their games and you won't eat their donuts. Be polite but firm. This is your life we are talking about.
Clean up your kitchen and your family if you need to. Dump the junk food. If it's not there, you won't be tempted to eat it. No more chips, soda, candy, or processed foods of any kind. Get rid of it! You're not a super saint so remove temptation. Get a program that focuses on the right foods, especially foods that help you burn fat. Good foods burn fat. Bad ones build fat. Find out the difference.
Remember that obesity leads to heart disease, diabetes (and all that brings), possibly some forms of cancer such as bowel, loss of libido and ability to perform for men, arthritic joints due to excess stress on joints and the list goes on. The ball is in your court. You must take care of your health by losing weight or the consequences are just too horrible to contemplate.
Remember - "It's always too early to quit". Too many folks give up just before they succeed. You've got to force yourself to keep going. That's what separates the winners from the folks who never manage to lose their fat. The most important muscle you can develop at this time is called Determination. Like all muscles it needs exercise to grow, but use it and watch your life transform. Winners never quit, and quitters never win. Your waist line will tell everyone which one you are. Thin, healthy, attractive, long life or fat, slow, unhealthy and headed for an early grave. Which do you want you be?

Determination is what separates the successful for the "wannabees". Like any muscle it has to be exercised to grow. Like any muscle there is a bit of discomfort on the say to growth and a lot of self-revelation. Are you really going to commit or quit like you have every other time. Now is the time to back yourself into a corner and make failure and quitting just unacceptable. Write down your goals and read then ten times a day until you see no other possibility but success. Remember Rule Number 1? You have the power if you want it.
Rule #5: Make a detailed record of your progress.
Review your workouts and diet frequently to identify what is working. That way, you can always come back to successful programs in the future when you are struggling.
Be faithful and follow these rules for success. As surely as the soda and chips put the pounds on, your dedication and determination will take them off. - 16004
