You know what I mean… who is in your corner to pump you up, psyche you up, refresh you and send you back into the melee ring? Everyone needs a motivator. Someone to have your back when you aren’t up to snuff.
Jill and Karl have each other to keep on track, share their goals, and motivate each other. Just look at their results! They are inspirations to us all. Proof that change can happen. Dean and Nancy are another two great examples.
But what about those of us that live with lard butts that don’t see anything wrong with their style of living and eating. I get ‘I’ve been eating this way for 43 years, it works for me, so you can change but don’t expect me to’. Sound relatively familiar? Oh he’s not lazy by any stretch of the word, and his metabolism is to be envied. I really thought when he threw his first kidney stone ever… the size of an apple seed! (HUGE) he would be more amenable to healthier eating… not so much. His idiotic “Doctor” confirmed he didn’t need to ‘change’ his diet. Oh drat…
Well, here’s what a girls to do: find a motivator! Mine is Donna, tonight on the ride to Bootcamp she re-energized me, pumped me up, gave me ideas, we made a plan… lots of plans. I’ve slacked off a bit, lots of changes taking place and my eating has spiraled. One issue at a time, we hashed out the areas that need work. I now have a finance plan, a family chore plan, and an eating plan… so little time, so many plans! Now to implement them… might be a little tricky, but I’ve got DK(Donna) in my K.O. (knock out)corner. The fam will eat what I put in front of them or go hungry, their choice. I have to make a few changes again, make them habits again, and probably will again, and again and again. I’m good with that, always changing. Eventually, it will become natural and there won’t be any thought put into it.
So find someone you can share your goals, help you make a plan, be a sounding board, offer encouragement. You’ll get results!
And remember: “IF MAMA AIN”T HAPPY, AIN”T NO BODY HAPPY!”
