Who Do You Associate With?
Wednesday, September 23, 2009 23:31Often times we choose to hang around with people who are a lot like us.
Typically, there's really nothing wrong or unusual about that except when we’re talking about trying to lose weight.
You see, if you’re trying to lose weight many of your friends may also be a little overweight and have''t yet decided to break the cycle. This becomes problematic when you're going out for dinner or drinks and everyone is used to you eating, drinking, and going along with the crowd.
So although I'm not telling you to dump your old friends I am recommending that you "take a break" from them for a few weeks while you're creating healthy lifestyle patterns. After a few weeks of cutting out all those cheat foods and exercising more you'll feel stronger about your decisions and will be able to better stand behind your new healthy choices when you're out.
