Day 84 Extreme Accountability Challenge
Starting weight 304 pounds
Destination weight 175 pounds
Total weight loss to date 56.6 pounds
72.4 pounds to go
After 84 days of this “public display of weight”, and beginning this journey of posting my scales daily to Facebook, I can say accountability works for me. I cannot speak for anyone else, but it is making the difference day in and day out. Since March 15, 2017, I’ve been to 4 birthday parties, many other events, and nightly wrestled with “the pantry,” calling my name, all with my mind on , what will the scales reveal tomorrow?
I get asked several times per week, if not per day, “what kind of diet are you on?”
I believe that a healthy long term, non-fad, time tested, proven diet is absolutely a necessity for long term weight loss. However, that alone never worked for me long term….correction, “I”, never worked at sticking to a program long term. There are hundreds if not thousands of approaches to losing weight, and I personally don’t believe any approach is the “only” solution.
I knew “the one” that would work for me after trying dozens and dozens of weight loss plans. The key, and without it, is guaranteed failure, is sticking to the plan no matter what. The difference.
ACCOUNTABILITY!
ACCOUNTABILITY!
ACCOUNTABILITY!
ACCOUNTABILITY!
ACCOUNTABILITY!
That’s the elephant in the room!
The program I’m using may be the best approach for me, but it’s probably not for everyone. Over 56 pounds down in 84 days, I know it’s working for me.
The Accountability is THE secret ingredient.
If you want to change, do what’s necessary, for me it was to get accountable.
Press forward.
175 pounds here I come!!!
