There are, however, great ways to lose weight rapidly! Here are 8 tips that are sure to work. They will both motivate you and get your weight loss started.

1. Join an online support group. It is very important for you to get the word out there. When you join a support group you will meet people that have (or are) walked in your shoes. You will be able share the laughter, pain, success and failures with them. If you are smart, which I think you are because you are reading this, you can make sure you do not make the mistakes that others have made before you. Learn from their mistakes, that way, you do not need to make them yourself.

2. Tell your loved ones! As I said before, it is important that you get the word out there. I know, once you tell everyone, you will have greater pressure on yourself to accomplish your goals, but that is the whole point! As a bonus, people around you, who cares for you, will make it easier for you to lose that weight rapidly. They might buy better food and start eating better themselves, just to make it easier for you. That my friend, is a great thing! Everyone will feel and look better, enjoy!

3. Take before and after pictures! Yes, I know it is hard to look at yourself in them before pictures, but it is a great way to motivate yourself. You will begin to see the difference and that is one of the most powerful motivators.

4. You need a lifestyle change! If you say, I am starting a diet, it will only go that far. You will probably gain the weight back in a few months. If you instead said: "I am changing my life for the better!" You will have much greater results when trying to lose weight rapidly and keep it off. Change your "bad" habits and create new "good" habits. Remember , it does not take long to make something a habit.

5. Control your life! This is the greatest advise I can give you if you are trying to lose weight rapidly and for the long term. It is simple really, Eat less and exercise more! If you are trying to lose weight rapidly or for the long run, then it is all about burning more calories than you consume! There, I just saved you like $500, now you do not have to go out there and buy that next weight loss book!
