Journaling for Great Results

November 19, 2017 · Filed under healthy eating

What does a journal possibly have to do with weight loss? Research has shown that people who write down what they eat tend to have more success than those who don’t. Why? This is the case for a few reasons.

  1. It makes you think about your food and your plan for the day.
  2. Once you’ve written something down, it tends to feel final to you and more likely to be something you’ll stick to.
  3. If you write down your food for a week and see that you haven’t lost any weight, it’s a great way to monitor what you’ve eaten and to make adjustments for the week to come.

While it seems annoying and time consuming, people really have had great success with journaling. There are also many apps these days where you can keep track of your food and your eating plan for the week. Try it!
