Everyone who is trying to better themselves has a different reason, and a different very personal struggle to overcome. Isolating yourself from those who can and want to help you, or surrounding yourself with people who are not committed to your success will not help you achieve your goals!
People who support you play a lot of roles and can participate in a lot of ways...
Understanding that this is important to you and that you may have certain restrictions on your eating and/or schedule so you can do your best for you. (Ma, that means to please stop trying to force feed me ice cream because "you only live once"! I'd like for my "once" to be a healthy and very long one!)
Encouraging you on your rough days and acknowledging your good choices on your good days.
Participating in your journey either by directly joining us and doing it with you, or talking to you about your progress and plan. (One of our favorite parts is seeing our 4 year old daughter try to do the workouts with us, and answering her questions about our healthy plan and the good choices we're making. #leadbyexample)
Celebrating your scale victories and your #NSV's - your non scale victories! Every achievement from successfully avoiding those delicious donuts in the office kitchen to dropping a clothing size to hitting your goal weight is worthy of celebration and acknowledgement.
Get your family and friends involved in your journey... they want to celebrate YOU even more than we do!
