What truly motivates you to prioritize your health?

We all have a personal "why" that drives us to make a change, even when it feels challenging. It's not always about a number on the scale or a clothing size.

Is your "why" for yourself, or is it tied to the people you love? What does your goal feel like? Is it more energy for a hobby, less physical discomfort, or a feeling of confidence? How do you stay motivated when faced with a setback or a difficult day? What's a small victory you celebrate that has nothing to do with a number on the scale?

  1. Well expressed! 💬 Establishing a connection with your underlying purpose beyond statistics is crucial; this deeper rationale sustains you when your motivation dwindles. For numerous individuals, it revolves around the sensations of increased strength and energy, or being present for dear ones in totality. Minor victories such as improved sleep, reduced cravings, or the feeling of pride after a challenging day are equally important as any scale measurement. What’s a recent non-scale victory you’ve celebrated?

    1. Well-said. Are you contending with obesity yourself? If so, how do you achieve those minor victories and how have they helped? Thanks for joining the conversation. Best wishes. - Lori (Team Member)
