This free printable weight loss journal could be your best friend in keeping you inspired and on track! Here are some exciting ways to use this weight loss journal/planner.

Weight Loss Goals
There’s nothing more exhilarating than setting specific goals for yourself. Envision your weight loss journey. Create a vision board or jot down your end goals, then break them into smaller, achievable milestones. Is weight loss your target? How much weight do you want to shed? Or is your aim to lose fat and gain muscle?
For example, my big goal is to lose fat and build muscle for a healthier lifestyle. So, I set smaller, bite-size goals, like tracking my food for a week to see what needs tweaking or committing to strength training three days a week for a month to observe changes in my mood and physique.
