...It Is Up To Me!This week we looked at the resources we already have to help make our weight management efforts effective. Each meeting seemed to deal with the topic differently, but a lot of meetings discussed the truth that so many of us already know; how our own heads get in our way and what ways we can help ourselves to get past that!
It seems like whenever we hear of a celeb losing weight, we think "Well, if only I had a personal trainer, a chef, a 24/7 nanny, I'd be able to do that too!" It's so easy to get caught up by the "if only ..." thinking or the "I wish I had / I wish I could have ...".
We talked about how we can rely on practical tools to help us get past that; such as exercise videos online or utilizing the exercise routines offered on cable TV or DVD's (borrow them from the public library to keep the cost down). Many of us use E-Tools to look for new and different ideas and recipes to cook. The tools online can also help simplify meal preparation so it becomes a "breeze".
I was also impressed that members shared unequivocally, that coming to meetings and swapping ideas was by far the #1 resource available to them - if you are skipping meetings; truly you are missing out.

For any of this to be effective, you have to believe in your ability to make it happen. YOU have the POWER to change the outcome. Set yourself a small goal and begin to work towards it - today, right now in this VERY moment!
