You are fat. Chunky, round, stout, heavy, hefty, stocky, beefy, corpulent, chubby, blubbery: fat. You see it in the mirror, in the size of your pants, on that awful scale. Maybe it snuck up on you one burger or French fry at a time. Perhaps you have been big all your life. No matter what, you have decided that today is the day. Your road to weight loss starts right now.

But how? There are of course the usual answers. Diet, exercise, and eating right. Of course, you respond. I knew you were going to say that. Everyone knows that, it is obvious. But really, how? What diet, which exercise? What if you don’t succeed? Well, you’ll just be fat, the way you are now.

The hardest part of losing the weight will not come to you in the gym. Sweating will not be your demise. Your downfall will come slowly. You will be excited at first, but then the doubt will set in. Or the worry, or the time constraints. What can you do to circumvent all of these things? What is the miracle answer behind finally dropping the weight that has been holding you down too long? The answer is so simple. The road to thin just got a little less treacherous.

The single most important factor to making sure you lose weight successfully is this: determine why you’re doing it. Why is it that you want to lose weight? Of course you want to be healthy and look good, but what truly sparks your desire? Think long and hard: picture yourself slim. What are you doing, where are you going, what do you have on? This is your answer. Write it down in a journal. Flesh it out until it is precisely the moment you are working toward.

If you want to be healthier, more beautiful, and keep pace with your children, you ‘why’ may be “to roller blade at the park with your kids wearing your new pair of hot pants.” Make it real for yourself. Keep it in a journal somewhere. Write down at least 10 good ‘whys’. Now that you have them written they are in stone and easily referenced. Use these as motivation to continue on your journey and as a reminder of why you are doing what you are doing. Is it a vacation that you want?

A photo of the tiny seats on European public transportation will be a good reminder for you to stay on you treadmill. A JCPenny’s catalog in the take out menu drawer will magically remind you to eat a salad. Your weight loss journey and the motivation it takes to succeed are very personal, but your ‘whys’ shouldn’t be. Tell you ‘whys’ to the people closest to you. Sharing your goals will help to hold you accountable and help you to succeed.

Whatever the ‘whys’ may be that you choose, your answer lies inside yourself. The reasons why you want to lose weight will be the driving forces behind your journey, and everything else that you do in your life. Your ‘why’ will wake you up in the morning and drag you to that treadmill, it will keep you from that drive through line at McDonald’s. Armed with your own personal secret weapon, you can make your weight loss dream a reality.
