Break down your weight loss goal into several smaller behavior goals. A target weight can be overwhelming and can make your attempt at weight loss seem like an all-or-nothing proposition. For example, set a goal of avoiding nighttime snacking or fast food, rather than losing 25 pounds. Stick to the new behavior and the pounds will disappear.

The Fitness Expert

My trainer told me that to calculate how many calories I've burned during an activity, I shouldn't use my actual weight, but rather my weight minus my body fat. So if I'm 135 pounds and my body fat is 26% then I should input 100 pounds into the calculator to get a more accurate reading of calories burned. What do you think?
