Day 1: Find Your Real (Not Pretend) Motivation | 30-Day Weight Loss-athon
Welcome to Day 1 of the 30-Day Weight Loss-athon! Let the fun begin. 🙂
We only have 10 minutes, so I’m going to get straight to today’s action task. This task will provide fuel to fire your motivation for the month ahead. I suggest you read through the steps first, then take 10 minutes to work through the steps.
And because we only have 10 minutes, you need to move fast, act quickly and stop over-thinking. Just throw yourself in. Ready?
What You Need:
- 52 Weight Loss Missions sample
- Pen
- Paper
- Several post-its.
Step 1
Remember the 52 Weight Loss Missions sample you downloaded? If you haven’t already, please read pages 6, 7 and the top of page 8.
These pages talk about your genuine, fire-in-the-belly motivation for losing weight. Not why other people want you to lose weight. Not why you think you should lose weight. But the desire deep inside you. This is what we want to uncover.
Step 2
Write at least 20 endings to the sentence below. Write fast. Don’t censor yourself. Let your pen go where your critical, analytical mind might not let you.
I want to lose weight because…
Step 3
Now read back over your answers and pick one or to two that excite you.
Don’t be surprised if they aren’t the reasons you’ve been giving yourself for losing weight. If you’ve struggled to lose weight, then there’s a good chance your supposed reasons are not very powerful.
What you’ve just uncovered is a powerhouse of motivation. Let’s make sure we use it…
Step 4
Write the exciting reason(s) from Step 3 on some post-its, and put them in several places you’ll see them regularly, eg:
- On your bathroom mirror
- In your wallet
- In your diary
- On your computer
- On the fridge door.
Let these reminders of your real motivation drive you over the next month.
Check in!
And you’re done! Be sure to leave your comment below to check in and stay accountable.
See you back here tomorrow.
I too look like 6 months pregnant after 2 years of delivery. I want to have my pre pregnancy body back so desperately that I can do anything for it. I am so glad that I have come across such wonderful blog!
I will definitely follow this program and share with my other friends who are suffering from the same problems and wondering the solutions.
Thank you!
I purchased this program 2012. I have been a care taker for my parents- (9 1/2 Years). They both have both just recently passes. I now have the time for me. (I also purchased the 52 WL Package. )
I am very excited and hopeful.
Thank You, for this program.
I am making a commitment to you, I will report each day.

I want to feel sexy and pretty again, and I don’t want to hold myself back from doing things because I’m embarrassed that I still look like I’m pregnant, 3 years later! 🙂
Hi Jocelyn, welcome!
We hear that a lot and it’s understandable. During that time you’ve been looking after a precious baby, which doesn’t leave much time for you. Sounds like the time for you might be right now! Good luck, and let me know if I can help with anything along the way.
