From 100 MORE Days of Weight Loss, Day 1
My answers to the 3 questions at the end of the lesson
1. Find several people who have been successful with losing or maintaining their weight.
Ask them what they did and how they made it work.
My youngest sister who was diagnosed with diabetes a few years ago. She counts her carbs each day faithfully, and has lost more than 100 pounds.
Another sister who walks every day, no matter what. Even when she got off work at 9pm, she would still take a walk, winter and summer.
My client, Kathy, who lost more than 60 pounds with Weight Watchers. In the middle of her weight loss, she became very ill, and eventually had a liver transplant. A year later, she is now riding her bike for 20 miles and keeping up with seeing her personal trainer for strength training and cardio work. She is 70 years old and is amazing.
2. From their comments, write a list of three things you can apply to your own efforts.
Stay consistent with tracking calories and carbs.
Do something for exercise as close to daily as possible.
Don’t let age or health issues get in the way of my progress and commitment.
3. Make a sign that says, “Others have done it and so can I.”
Place it where you can read it often and let it inspire you to reach your goals.
Done. Sign is on my bulletin board.
