Motivation Boosters
When you need a boost to stay on track, try these strategies:
Make lifestyle changes with a friend or family member. A partner increases the enjoyment factor of physical activity and healthful eating.
Enlist support. Those who have a support system including family and friends are more likely to manage their weight successfully. Watch out for those who attempt to sabotage your efforts.
Please yourself. Remember, the most important reason to work towards a healthy weight is you.
Enjoy how good your healthy weight feels. If you’re eating better, being more active, your clothes fit better, you have more energy, you sleep better – that’s success! Even if the number on the scale isn’t your goal weight. Celebrate your successes with non-food rewards like new clothes, fresh flowers, a special outing, new music to listen to. You deserve it!
