this tip works nicely with tip #1, so you can reward yourself when you reach a certain goal. i find having some kind of specific goal motivates me to continue with a fitness routine (as opposed to more general goals like "get healthier" or "lose weight").
also, you may want to set easier/more creative goals that are more encouraging when you start out. for example, "work out 3 times this week, 1 hour each time", or "able to do bicep curls with x lb weight in y weeks", or "only have 1 sugar drink in a week". basically, don't focus all your attention on "lose x lbs in y days". if you are gaining muscles, you may actually gain a pound or two even when you're losing fat!
