The Paper Towel Theory of Weight Loss
Let's say a full roll of paper towels represents the extra fat someone is carrying around.
Every day, you peel off one paper towel. No apparent change to the size of the roll. In fact many days or even weeks may go by with no visible change in the size of the roll.
But keep removing one towel each day and that roll eventually gets smaller and smaller until one day there is nothing left but the inner tube.
Losing weight can be just like that roll of paper towels. You most likely will not notice any change between week one and week two. No apparent difference between week two and three. You may not even notice a difference between week 11 and week 12. But if you compare week one to week 12 you will probably see and feel a difference.
Keep at it, trust the process and you will experience and see the changes you want over time.
