weight loss and choices

Every day we are confronted with choices. At work, it may be a case of choosing between which project is more important and requires your attention that day. At home, you may need to choose which parent drives which child to practice that day. Personally, you need to choose where and how you spend the money you work so hard to make. Choices....every day you need to make choices and your work performance, parenting responsibilities and financial status will affected by these choices.

Some of the most important choices you can make are those that will affect your health. Right now, by virtue of you being in our program or simply reading this blog, you clearly are thinking about your dietary choices and how those may affect your weight. By focusing on losing the weigth you want/need to lose, you are making the choice to be healthier and live longer. You will look younger, feel more energy and wear those clothes impressively. This is the choice you are making. You are choosing health over the immediate gratification of high caloric food sources. You are balancing the "fun" of drinking alcohol and eating high-carb foods vs. the desire to be healthier and look better. You are making an excellent choice. Keep with it!
