What Do You Have to Lose?


As we near the end of the month of new resolutions, promises of change and enthusiasm for the future I encourage you to ask yourself..."What do you have to lose by sticking with those feelings you had just a few short weeks ago?"

It is typically about this time that the excitement of 'the new' is wearing off as we settle back into the reality of life. The bright hope of things to come is starting to diminish and the desire to do what it takes to reach our weight loss goals is overcome by hunger pangs and a despise of sweat. So again I ask, "what do you have to lose?"

Now think about it - really think about it. How about the extra weight that makes you sluggish half way through the day? Think of carrying a 10 pound bag of potatoes around or 2 or 3 bags depending how much you have to lose. Now imagine NOT carrying that around. If you dropped 2 or 3 of those bags of potatoes, what would you be able to do that you can not do now?
Would you be able to lose the loose fitting clothes that you wear to cover up? How about losing the lack of desire to wear shorts and sleeveless shirts that are coming with the warm weather trends that are just around the corner? Would you lose the feelings of disappointment in yourself for allowing your weight to get to where it is?

You see, really you have everything to gain by sticking with your commitments to lose the weight! You can do it and you should. Not only for yourself but also for those you love. You will lose the weight and gain confidence, energy, desire and that bright hope for the future is yours.

So, don't stop now!!! One more time, "What do you have to lose?"
