Look for triggers that have caused you to gain weight. They may include family problems, stress at work and even loneliness. Now eliminate them. They're most likely the cause of bad habits, like grabbing cookies or cupcakes when you leave worl and gorging yourself when you get home.
Do whatever it takes to initiate positive change, but be mindful to not try to do too much too soon. Make gradual changes that will become a permanent way of life - do not make changes just to lose a few pounds for a specific event, only to go back to your negative habits soon after.
