Tip #12: Be patient!

Be patient. Oh I know I know, I've heard how the saying goes, "You didn't put the weight on overnight, so don't plan on taking it off over night." YADA YADA YADA! How many of you after the first of the year said, "I can't believe how fast 2009 went!!!" Or how many have said, "This summer has flown by!" You know what I'm talking about. Time flies and that is just a fact. Believe me, when you're on this journey of losing weight, TIME FLIES!!!!! It does not seem like I lost 82 lbs in 2009, it just doesn't! Time went so fast and it will go fast for you too. Try to be patient and remember that you are making lifestyle changes! So even if you were to lose the weight faster, you still need to maintain these healthier habits forever so there is really no point in time going faster than it already is. ENJOY THE JOURNEY!!! :)
