So it automates the process. Use this to your advantage. Exercise on the same days, at the same time. Your conscious effort quickly becomes unconscious habit, and when combined with the next tip, begins to automatically deliver maximum results.

You’ll have a better chance at a successful weight loss surgery and  reaching your fitness goals when the people around you have similar desires.

Above safety and even physical requirements for human survival, Maslow noted that human beings have a compelling desire to be a part of a group. Surround yourself with people who are fitter than you, and socialize with them. This simple act can mean all the difference in the world.
