Team Work!

I am definitely one of those people who find it easier to do something myself than rely on other people for help and support. One of the lessons that I'm learning as I get older is that there is strength in numbers! Nothing beats the support and encouragement of friends especially when you accomplish a goal you set for yourself. Don't be a lone ranger in your efforts, enlist the help of family and friends to help you reach your fitness, health and life goals.

Enjoy the newsletter and have a blessed week!

Team Work!

About 6 weeks ago, I was blessed with the opportunity to participate in a dragon boat competition. What a great lesson in teamwork! Everyone had to paddle together in order for the boat to move smoothly in the water. Success was not based on one individual but the entire team. What a perfect formula for success in every endeavor -- especially weight management! It’s difficult to try to make healthy choices in an environment where bigger is better (food-wise, I mean); where most social activities involve eating and where we sometimes use food as a comforter, a drug and a friend.

Stop trying to do it alone. Let your friends and family know about your efforts. Let them encourage you. Get your family and friends to join you on your workouts. Be a catalyst to encourage healthier snacks at your meetings. The more that people know what you are trying to achieve, the better they will be able to support and encourage you.

Working out with a fitness partner keeps you accountable, gives you inspiration, and provides you with the security that you're not alone on the road to fitness. Is there someone in your life who would be a good motivator and workout partner? As your homework for the week, give them a call, set up a schedule and watch your success improve.
