Tyler, Texas Weight Loss: Secret equals self sabotage

On the one hand, keeping your weight loss goals to yourself only makes sense.  After all, if you give up after a few days there’s no one there to criticize you or judge you.  If you do succeed, then you’ll have the upper hand to surprise those who have not seen you in a while, which is a great ego boost.  Mostly, there won’t be the constant, nagging, and annoying questions of what type of plan you are on, how things are going, and how many pounds you’ve managed to get rid of.

On the other hand, keep your weight loss a secret could be a recipe for disaster.  The very reasons for keeping quiet are the same reasons your chances for success are quite low.  There is no accountability and no motivation to push through beyond your own often finicky thoughts.  It is very easy to rationalize eating that doughnut to yourself if no one is there to discourage you and help keep you on the path to success.

While it is difficult to tell your Tyler, Texas friends and family of your intentions knowing there is a possibility of not living up to your goals, having a source of accountability can do wonders to keep your motivation high in those times where you are ready to give up.  It also helps to have a strong support system for encouragement and help. If you are serious about losing weight, let it be known.
