What kind of weight loss goals have you set for yourself?

First of all if you haven’t set any – are you insane? Seriously, setting up goals for yourself is going to make a dramatic impact on the amount of fat you lose as well as how fast you lose it. If you don’t already have some for yourself, I highly suggest making them.

But that’s not what this post is about.

What I’m going to talk about today is simply going craaazzzzyyy with your weight loss goals.

Well what if for example you made a fat loss goal to lose 5 pounds in the next month.

What if you DON’T hit that goal – then what happens? Anything? If not, you’re missing out on some extraordinary benefits.

Weight loss goals should be crazy!

When I mean you should go crazy with your goals, what I’m talking about is making yourself do something kind of crazy if you don’t hit the goals.

For example, say I wanted to lose 2 pounds this week. If I didn’t, I would tell my fiancee I’m going to do all the chores for an entire week – by myself.

Or maybe I would go into the middle of a WalMart parking lot in the middle of the busiest time of day and yell something embarrassing in front of all those people.

Or another thing I could do is force myself to give up my favorite food for an entire month, or even a week.

The more crazy you get with this, the better the results will be.

You see, when you set a goal like this and you force yourself to do something you really don’t want to do if you don’t hit it, it sets off kind of a trigger in your brain. Then the next time you see pizza all you’ll do is think about how you’re going to have to do that embarrassing thing if you eat the pizza.

Plus, it simply makes life a lot more fun!

I know this technique sounds kind of weird, but trust me – it’s a lot of fun and will actually help you stay on track much easier than simply having a regular weight loss goal and trying to accomplish it.

The one trick I should mention is that your “punishment” for not achieving that goal should be kind of equal to the amount of time you have to do it.

For example, don’t make yourself run a marathon if you only lose 1 pound in a week instead of 2.

Not accomplishing a weekly goal would have a small consequence. Not accomplishing a monthly would have a bigger consequence, and not accomplishing a yearly goal should make you have to do something really embarrassing (just make sure you get it on video and send it to me!).

So, what kind of crazy scheme can you come up with for yourself? Write a comment below and give other people some ideas that you’re going to use for yourself!

    How about this… if you don’t meet your weight loss goal upload a picture of your fat gut into twitpic. That would be motivation for me
