The necessary first step for your weight-loss journey is to set goals that will effectively move you through the process. Essentially, there are two kinds of goals to consider: outcome goals and process goals. Outcome goals look to the end, or outcome, of your journey. What do you hope to achieve with your weight-loss? Is there a target weight you have in mind? A special dress or pants size you want to fit into? Process goals work differently. They walk you through the journey, step-by-step toward your outcome goal. A process goal might be the choice to workout three times a week or to drink 64oz. of water every day. The key here is to set goals that offer challenge but are not too unrealistic. When you focus on moving through your process goals one day at a time, before you know it, you will have achieved your outcome goal as well! Those small daily victories amount to a huge and gratifying overall success!
