12 Weight Loss Tips to Keep You Motivated

Make Every Step Count

Daily physical activity is essential to losing weight and keeping it off. Marty Irons, R.Ph., CDE, says a pedometer is a great way to measure your progress in a fun way.

Try It Now: Using your pedometer, track the steps you currently take and add 200 per week until you reach 10,000 steps a day (which is about 5 miles). Joanne Gallivan, M.S., R.D., recommends using the National Diabetes Education Program's free food and activity tracker, which you can order online.
