Aren't you tired of hearing yourself say the same old excusesyear after year?

First step towards weight loss...activate.

The most important ingredient in your plan isexercise. If you think exercise is a dirty word, it's time tochange. Starting today, resolve to activate your life in everyway possible. Leave the car keys behind and walk to the cornerstore. Race yourself to get your housework done in ten minutesless time (because the more vigorous your movement, the morecalories you burn). Get off the elevator one floor early andwalk up the stairs. Every extra active thing you do will burncalories - and the more calories you burn, the more likelyyou'll reach your goal.

When you're ready to really activate, get a physical workoutthat is designed with your own interests in mind. Join a gym,take up a sport, or take an extra long walk during sunset. Butjust make sure your exercise plan revolves around your owninterests.

Second step towards weight loss...motivate.

Grab a pen and notebook and start writing down all the reasonsyou should lose weight. Don't stop till you get to ten, at thevery least. Here are some suggestions: 1. I'll be healthier -losing 10 pounds can decrease your risk of heart disease,diabetes and a host of other weight-related illnesses. 2. I'llsave money. Super-size costs more. 3. I'll be able to keep upwith my kids. It takes energy to keep up with kids, and extraweight saps your energy. Lose ten pounds and see how much betteryou feel. 4. I'll get back into my favorite jeans. 5. I'll lookbetter.

Third step towards weight loss...keep track of what you eat.

Once you have your ten reasons to lose weight, don't stopwriting. Keep that pen and notebook with you all day and writedown every single thing you put into your mouth. You'll besurprised at all the 'unexpected' calories you catch yourselfeating. The last two french fries on your son's plate. The twobites of chicken you tasted to make sure of the seasoning. The'just one bite' of your friends ice cream cone. The handful ofpotato chips you snagged from the bowl on your way by. Writedown every single bite, even if just for a few days, to makeyourself

aware of all the food that you didn't even realize youwere eating.

Fourth step towards weight loss...educate.

Educate yourself about healthy diets and plans, andfind a diet that you believe you can live with for the rest ofyour life. It's the only way that you'll lose weight and keep itoff permanently.

Fifth step towards weight loss...salivate.

If you think that diet food is boring, find a good low-fatcookbook and start re-educating your taste-buds. Healthy,low-fat, low-carb cooking is delicious - prove it to yourself.

Remember, don't fall back into your bad habits. Stick with yourNew Year's resolution and start losing weight today with thesefive simple steps towards weight loss.
