Learning Life Lessons in Bite-Sized Chunks

“The tragedy in life doesn’t lie in not reaching your goal. The tragedy lies in having no goal to reach.” – Benjamin Mays

You likely have an ultimate goal weight you’d like to reach by the end of your medical weight loss program, but take a few minutes to think about the goals you’d like to reach by the end of next week, next month or a few months from now, too. Remember: your goals don’t have to exclusively relate to your body weight—they can be as simple as reaching a landmark in your workout routine, feeling more confident or learning a new healthy recipe. Often the easiest goals are the most effective, as these will help to bolster your resolve to continue. But if you fail to reach a goal, think of these timeless words from Benjamin Mays and remind yourself that working towards a healthier lifestyle is the most important part of your efforts.

Whether you write them on Post-It notes and stick them to your bathroom mirror or just keep them tucked away in your memory, keeping inspirational quotes like these around can be a big help during medical weight loss. Think of some of the people who inspire you and the words that resonate most with your weight loss journey, then keep reminders of those positive messages around at home or work. You might be surprised by how much a few short words can impact your resolve and motivation to keep moving forward as you lose weight.
