Setting the mind right - part 2

Step 2: Do the math

Losing weight as fast as possible will most unlikely be a healthy option, no matter how desperate you are to get rid of those extra pounds. Before you think on how fast you want to work off your overweight, think about how long it took you to gain it. In my case it was 46 lbs in about 9 years (108 month). It seems pretty obvious that losing it in let’s say 2 weeks is not very realistic. On the other hand having reached my goal-weight in 15 months doesn’t seem that bad anymore, right?

Stepping-Stone

2008 proved to be the year that set the stepping-stone for many positive changes in my life that have lasted ever since. 

I flew home (to Switzerland) for Christmas 2007 and when I was back in Mexico and looked through the pictures of that trip, one particularly stood out to me. It was telling me very clearly that I had reached a limit on my extra weight.
