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. Knowing I should eat healthier

  2. doing things at my pace

  3. I can't take medicine for my type 2 diabetes. So, I have to treat it with diet only. My son needs me to advocate for him and he relies in me heavily. I'm an older dad.
