Using a weight loss bujo is easy. But How a weight loss bujo works is easy. I’m not going to bog you down with pointless bloated writing nor am I gonna pad the instructions for god SEO. It’s just this:
- See a doctor, set your goals
- Get a journal, record your weight each day, then
- write your goals down every day in a short, punchy brief, then
- keep going.
Pretty simple, right?
I am going to add a lot more, but in the broad sense, that’s the process. You can make it more difficult. Add steps, draw more charts, get some washi tape. Go ahead, I’m not your dad. I can’t stop you. But in the long run—and we are shooting for a distant goal, here—how a weight loss bujo works is this: simply.
How a weight loss journal works: it’s about the journal part
I write about analog tools over at Analog Attorney, a column I write for Attorney at Work. And relax, just as I’m not a doctor I’m also not an attorney. I’m married to an attorney but what I know about the law can be encapsulated by the phrase, yes, dear. But I know about journaling and there is a science behind it.
In fact, I want you to go to Analog Attorney now and read this one article about writing by hand. I’ll wait. Ok, now that you’re back, I hope you’re more confident about the power of journaling and maybe you can see now how a weight loss bujo works.
Write down your intention to lose weight every day. This keeps your intention to lose weight in front of your conscious mind.
It might. The writer of this blog believes it does. The science behind journaling seems positive about its usefulness in developing enduring mindsets and changing habits.
Maybe. Science is conflicted over the usefulness of tracking, but it probably won’t hurt.
