First of all What is your fav tea/drink for Nutrisystem diet? Thanks for any answer or 2. Another question I got... 6 Ways to Set Sensible Weight Loss Goals.

* Resolve to lose slowly.

This is sometimes harder than you think. You have to change your entire mindset to focus on the journey not the destination..

* Do the math..

A realistic goal is losing 1 to 2 pounds a week to stay healthy. You will lose rapidly at first, but this will not last, so prepare yourself for that right off the bat..

That means being realistic about your time frame. If you need to lose 25 pounds, figure you are embarking on at least a three-month program. Fifty pounds? Assume a time frame of at least six months. Aim to burn 500 to 1000 calories a day..

* Set short term goals..

Reach for mini-milestones. Instead of focusing on just losing 25 pounds, go for and celebrate that first 5-pound loss..

* Track your progress..

Record your successes in a way that works for you. Take advantage of online programs, use a notebook, or keep a journal. Whatever keeps you on track..

* Think about long-term goals..

It's OK to think big, but it may mean starting small and working towards a big goal..

So if your long-term goal is losing 50 pounds in a year, for example, maybe your short-term goal is getting through the day on plan with no variations..

*Be accountable..

Take responsibility for your own actions. Choosing what you put in your mouth and how often is simply a decision. Be accountable to someone. Give someone that authority of accountability over you, even if it is just an on-line friend. If you could do this on your own, you wouldn't be fat and out of control. Don't ever be ashamed to ask for help..

There's an old saying: Lose it slowly, keep it off. This adage makes sense for at least one reason: Losing weight slowly means you've had time to adopt new behaviors, like eating less and exercising more..

And when you focus on the process of changing your habits not just on losing weight those new and healthier habits will be a big boost in helping you attain your weight loss goals..

What are your goals, and why?..
