Losing Weight Is Not All Black & White - It'S Multicolored.

Members Were Sparked

We think of successful weightloss in black & white. We either lose (win) or don’t lose (fail). Success is the process of working towards a goal w/o the option of quitting. A healthy lifestyle is a process that we persevere thru on a daily basis, determining to never give up. Every day we strive to do better, we succeed. Every day we try something new, we succeed. And even when we stumble, perseverence gets us up & moving again, allowing us to learn from those mistakes, & that makes us a winner!

Letting others know...

I have found that letting others know (in life, on Facebook, etc.) has helped me stay motivated. People know I am trying to lose weight so I'm not going to want to go back on my goal! They also congratulate me which is a great reward when I post that I have lost more weight or can't find clothing that fits!
It's a motivating and rewarding way to keep at my goal of losing this weight for good!
