Sabatical is over

Its time to get back to work on diet and exercise.

There is one thing I have learned over the past few months of stress travel and work… I can only be accountable to do something for myself if I document it and feel others will catch me slacking if I dont. Hence the importance of this blog for me and weight loss.

I have friends who have done weight watchers with amazing success, but i think the reason is was successful for them is because it helped them establish a community around their goals. Like-minded people with similar goals and approaches. While the idea of weight watchers doesn’t sound all that appealing to me (I work too much and don’t get to see my son enough anyway- why would I spend the time I have to be with him in meetings?) I do like the idea of making a community around weight-loss and healthy habits. That is why I am still so excited about this website and i am going to jump right back on the documenting bandwagon today.

I hope you will partake.

  1. I have to agree. I think that anyone has the ability to lose weight and get in better shape but it is far too easy to slack if you do not have a support system behind you.

    The trouble is that most people want to just power throug, lose the weight, work hard, sacrifice. After a few weeks or after a couple of bad weeks in a row everything comes crashing down because they are not able to have someone help out or have a shoulder to cry on.

    Get support! Thanks for the new blog to read guys :)
