 Start today:Do something. Go for a walk even if it is just 10 minutes. Or set a short-term goal like getting up early for a workout every day for a week.

 Be a tracker:Account for every calorie that goes in your mouth. Keep a journal and write down everything you eat each day.

 Remove temptation:Banish those snacks right out of the house. And she means from everywhere even your secret stash. Then fill up those empty cupboards with healthy snacks like fruits and vegetables

 Use photos:Take a before picture and then take picture each week or every other week to keep a visual diary. Note your weight and the date.

 Music:Choose music to keep you reved up and inspired to keep going.

 Push yourself:If you are on the treadmill, say, and want to quit after an half hour, strive for an hour but in small increments. Do an extra 10 minutes, then another 5 and then 10 more to finish things off.

 Chop ahead:A healthy lifestyle takes planning. Each weekend prepare (wash, cut up and containerize) your food for the week.

 Pack a cooler :This is also a great strategy that Tosca Reno of Clean Eating swears by. Keep a cooler full of good/healthy food with you throughout the day. This way when you are hungry you will have everything you need to avoid the closest drive thru. Her favorite cooler items are; fruit, cut up veggies, cooked green beans, hummus and a protein source like chicken.

 Take a day off :Give yourself a cheat day once a week. She picks one day where she gives her self 2400-2600 calories so she can have a slice of cake or pizza. More and more diet gurus suggest this as a great strategy to keep from feeling deprived. Harley Pasternak of the 5 factor diet also includes this philosophy for his clients.

 Create a support system :This could be friends that work out with you, on line buddies or co-workers that share and support your desire to live a healthy lifestyle.

Keep a reminder:Maybe an old pair of pants that now seem huge or a photo that sparked a turning point. Helen keeps a life size cut out of her self as she was when she arrived at the ranch weighing 257 pounds.
