Stay accountable. Monitor your weight weekly and take action if it rises above a specific number. Taking measurements can be helpful to see progress when you hit a plateau or start a new fitness program which can cause the scale to stall. Use a food and activity log or app to maintain a better understanding of your energy balance (calories in and out). A pedometer is a great way to monitor how much you move. Use a buddy system, support groups, or online support for additional accountability.
