When you
take up a weight loss program, you will have a long term or medium term goal.
Even a short term goal will have a period of about a month or at least a
fortnight.
How will you
react to a suggestion for tracking your weight loss on a daily basis? Well, you
will obviously ask, “Why should I do this?” In other words, you want to know
what advantages will tracking your weight loss will give you?
There are
several advantages. But I will list just three of them. If these three benefits
are good enough, then you will be inclined to take up a program of weight loss
tracking.
1)
You will
know where you are:
Suppose you follow a weight loss program and after one month you find that you have not made any progress, what will you feel? Will you not feel that you have wasted one month. On the other hand, if you follow a system of tracking yourweight loss through which you can measure your progress every day, you will discover whether the system is working or not much earlier.

2)
Your weight
loss program will become more effective:
Whatever program you follow for losing weight, tracking will make the program more effective, not by improving the program but by making you more productive. If you begin to monitor anything, you will assume a kind of seriousness that can only make the program more fruitful.
