Why is it that we are so reluctant to embark on a plan to lose weight? Often, it is because we have a faulty perspective about what we can reasonably expect. We try to lose, in two weeks or a month, weight that has accumulated over a period of years, or even decades. If we don’t take time to think this issue through, we might just as well save our energy and time because unrealistic expectations are a set-up for failure. Always! That’s why fad diets don’t work. You get sick of them before you even make any progress. In order to gain perspective, think of it this way. If you were planning to drive from Cleveland to Seattle, which is about 2400 miles, how long would you allow? Would you even dream that you could leave after dinner and arrive at your destination for lunch? Of course not! That’s ridiculous!
