Weight loss tip #167 – Make an achievement board

The little award badges on your achievement board will motivate you to push harder.

We all look for motivation and appreciation in everything we do. So when it comes to staying fit or losing weight, any kind of external motivation works wonders. Now you can t go asking people to keep compliment you for staying fit and you cannot announce each fitness challenge you complete. However, what you can do is help yourself. You can also follow our daily fitness tips that guide you about the type of exercises you can do and healthy recipes so that you eat right.

Want to keep going and challenging yourself further each day? Make an achievement board in your own house. You can buy a corkboard or make one with some basic supplies at home. Display it at a place that you and everyone else can see. This achievement board will act like a visual stimulation. Just like motivational videos, wall posters of your favourite fitness celebrities and popular quotes motivate you, this board will invoke positive thoughts and motivate you to push harder.

Here s what you can do with the board:

• Pin-up your task or make attractive badges for all your achievements.
• Stick before and after pictures of yourself to see the difference.
• Take up challenges so that you can add your achievement on the board. For instance, if you ve completed a 28-day plank challenge, or a 10-day squat challenge or 6 types of push-ups challenge, you can stick an attractive coloured paper badge for it. You can also try this 7-day sexy butt challenge.
• You can even write down what you want to achieve in terms of fitness in the next week, fortnight or month. Keep ticking each item and if you complete all tasks within a deadline, announce it on your board with the date.
• Create milestones and give your achievement board a race track kind of feel if you are sporty.
• Ask your friends to write down their compliments on your weight loss or fitness on your achievement board the next time they visit you.

This board is going to be like your report card and will definitely help you perform better and lose more weight.
