We start small. We start really small. And in the book I lay this out, I start all of my patients just with habits. Habits first, because if I give you a food plan, You might be able to follow it strictly for a week. But you have to come to adopt those eating behaviors. And how do we do that? We do that by getting into small habits.

So even before getting into habits, I'll have people tell me why they're doing it. They need to find their why. And so it's not just me telling them to do something, but they know. And they bring their unique why to this. And I always tell people, One of your three whys. Give me three whys. One can be rooted in vanity. Like, I want to look better.

Well, we're human, right? So that's natural. But that can only be one thing. And then you have to dig deeper. And if you can't find a deeper reason for doing this, for improving your health, for getting on the floor and playing with your grandkids, for being able to hike up a mountain... You're going to fail. And you need to write it down and you need to reference it often.

People forget once they start feeling good and they start losing weight and they've started to master some of the habits and the eating. Sometimes people come to me and say, you know, nothing happened this month, I didn't lose any weight and I'm feeling defeated. And I'll say, well, let's go back to our original whys. And they'll be like, I can't remember.

And I'll be like, I have them written down because I'm your doctor and I keep good notes. They're right here. And let me remind you. And they'll be like, oh my gosh, I can't believe my why was walking up the subway steps without getting winded. Sie vergessen. Also ist es wirklich wichtig, eigentlich zurück zu gehen, Referenz zu machen und dann neue Weisen zu erschaffen.

Aber immer erinnern Sie sich an den originellen Startpunkt. Also das ist tatsächlich noch wichtiger, als ich sagen würde, als in die Habits zu gehen. Aber dann müssen wir, wir müssen schauen, dass creating good healthy behaviors. And it really starts with just, okay, what am I going to eat today? And let me think about how I'm going to plan. And let me be emotionally neutral about this.
