Starting off on a weight loss routine is relatively easy if one waits until January second. Everyone is doing it at that time so it seems. Too, it is expected that one will do exactly the same if one is carrying excess weight.
By contrast, it is more difficult to start in April. The reason is that one may know of others who started immediately after New Years Day but who have since quit. Perhaps one will do the same in under thirty days The fear of this, along with the fact that one is most probably all alone in their aspirations right now, may cause considerable difficulty.
Nevertheless, waiting until tomorrow or next January in the most extreme case is neither good nor necessary. One simply must be aware that he or she will be all alone and uneasy, and there is little that can be done to alleviate these feelings.
