Pre-Challenge 1: Understanding What a Weight Loss Lifestyle is

[Greeting]

The Weight Loss Lifestyle Challenge is going to start in 2 days, but first, let’s go over 
what a “weight loss lifestyle” actually is.


What is a Weight Loss Lifestyle?

All we mean by “weight loss lifestyle” is that you are setting up a healthy lifestyle with 
habits and routines that will encourage natural weight loss. It is a matter of making very 
small changes in your daily life that will move you forward to your health and wellness 
goals.


How is it Different From a Diet?

This is an entirely different approach to weight loss than dieting. You are not following a 
program, looking at a list of foods you can and can’t eat or following a workout program. 
Instead, you are looking at your health and life as a whole, and making changes that 
offer lasting impacts. 

The key here is that you are achieving healthy and natural weight loss. Not through a 
diet and not with extreme methods that will only lead to yo-yo dieting and your weight 
constantly going up and down. We want this to be a permanent change in your life that 
follows you through for many years to come. 


Tip – Get a journal ready to use, or print out our digital journal pages to be prepared for 
the challenge.

Journal Prompt – Make a list of the ways you have tried (but failed) to lose weight in 
the past, and why.
