Going Public May Lead to Success


Our first thought when we decide to lose weight is often to keep it to ourselves.

Why?

Maybe we convince ourselves that we want to "surprise" our friends and family when we lose all that weight!  But, chances are - if we're really being honest with ourselves - we probably don't tell others because we don't want to be embarrassed if we fail.

It's time to reverse your thinking.

Think about it this way. If you tell others, you may try just a little bit harder, resist temptation a little bit better, work out a little bit harder. And all those "little bits" may just add up to success.

So, set goals. Tell the people in your life that matter. Ask them to help you resist temptation.

You may be surprised how supportive your friends and family actually are.  And maybe they'll lose weight in the process too!
