Whenever you're trying to lose weight, even in a short amount of time, having a support group is helpful.  Studies have shown that those people with support groups have better success with their weight loss long-term.  Try asking friends or family members to help support you through your weight loss.  They can be there to be motivating or to hold you accountable. Also consider asking them to join you on your weight loss diet.  Many people are looking to lose some extra weight and it can be more fun to do it together. Compare against the measurements you took during the first week.  Keep track of your results, and let the small victories keep you going.  Keep weighing yourself as well.  After one month, you might decide to lose another 5 pounds or to continue on with your diet for another month to see how much additional weight you can lose. Also keep track of your measurements.  You might have toned down all over, but now want to focus on toning and building muscle in your body. A fun way to stay on track and to keep up motivation is by rewarding yourself.  Setting up small incentives may help you stay on track or help you maintain your weight loss long-term.  Set up small rewards when you meet smaller goals.  For example, when you follow the first week of your new diet and exercise program, you might reward yourself with a few new workout songs. Set up bigger rewards when you meet larger goals.  For example, you might buy yourself a new outfit when you lose the first 5 pounds. It's generally not recommended to reward yourself with food or dinners out when you're trying to lose weight.  These types of rewards may work against your long-term goal. So your month is up.  You've probably lost some weight and maybe even have gotten into better shape.  Revisit your weight goal to see if you want to continue your current diet.  Although you can make significant progress during one month's time frame, if you have more than 10 pounds to lose, you'll most likely need to continue your diet and exercise plan to see further weight loss. If you have met your goal, you may also consider continuing your healthy eating plan to maintain your results. Even if you've met your weight goal, you might want to consider keeping up with increased activity to help maintain your weight loss and physical fitness level. If you haven't met your weight goal yet, keep on going.  Or, if you need to, make some changes to your diet and exercise plan to help induce more weight loss or make the plan fit better into your lifestyle.

Summary:
Build a support group. Retake measurements. Reward yourself. Revisit your goals.
