Did you ever have a test when you were in school that you had to cram for? Sure, all of us did. How hard did you study? Did you study just enough to pass that test? Or did you study hard enough to make the highest score you could?

People who think they are studying just enough to make a passing grade, almost every time fail. That's why trying just hard enough to lose less than 1 pound per day will cause you to fail.

Instead, try this. Try to lose 1.5 to 2 pounds per day. Do not weigh every day! Only weight once a week. Weighing every day, or several times per day, is self defeating and you've beat yourself before you even started.
