My Eating Habits

there are many people who can beat motivational challenges by creating a social aspect to working out.

currently, i am working out with my co-workers daughter during the week. she is getting prepared to go to the coast guard and she doesn't like working out alone and she says she pushes herself more when i go.

we have been working out for about a month and a half and just yesterday she weighed in and found she has lost 20 pounds! she usually goes once a day during the weekdays and then rests on the weekends.

this one hour workout five days a week has helped her immensely, but more so has been meeting up because she says she eats better in anticipation of our workout. in addition, she finds she is not dreading working out because she knows she does not have to go-it alone.

so if your biggest health challenge is feeling you are in it alone. find a friend or partner to join you in your challenge. if your downfall is the 3 o'clock slump find a co-worker that will take turns bringing in a healthy snack to revive you both. or find a friend to help you prep healthy foods and trade of recipes. or find a friend that will meet you at the gym. whatever your challenge see if you can recruit someone to fight the battle with you-there is alot to be said for those that reach their goals when they do not feel they are alone.
