Ya’ll would not believe how hard they work day in and day out. Each of them have committed to make this lifestyle work no matter what is going on in life. It really moves me to see them face down their fears of failure, the sabateurs in life, stressful situations, and the mental game playing that goes on when trying to become a healthy and fit woman.
It’s not always easy, though. Sometimes they get derailed. Life is ALWAYS going to happen. A question I am regularly asked is how did I get back on track when I lost my way during my journey. Since I’ve been doing it so long it is hard for me to answer. I can share with you one thing I know my clients do when the going gets tough or they “fall off the PNP Wagon”.
My clients reach out to me or someone in life who can cheer them up or chew them out. When you are trying to shed fat you need one person in life who will tell it to you straight. You need that one person who will listen, hold you accountable, remind you how special you are, and who will call you on your bull crap when you are just making sorry excuses.
Maybe you don’t have that in your life. Go out to the Weight Watcher message boards or whatever boards you frequent and find a group of people you like. Build a relationship with them. Check in daily and don’t be afraid to put yourself out there. It’s tough to establish an accountability team. That means when you fail, because each of us will have less than stellar moments along this journey, you have to admit it to someone other than ourselves. I can’t tell you how many times I’ve worked out HARDER just because I know I have to post it in this blog!
Just because you can’t see online buddies doesn’t mean you won’t start to care about your accountability circle. You know, I have not met a single one of my clients but I feel close to each of them. I am blessed to be invited into their lives…to share their ups and downs. Sometimes I feel like I know them better than some of their loved ones (you guys know who you are). But, you don’t need a trainer like me to find that relationship. There are plenty of boards that will offer you support. Heck, post in my comments section under my daily blog. I would bet my biceps that my girls and other girls who come here will talk you off that cream puff ledge when you need it. I get over 600 hits a day. I’m sure someone, if not me, would share in your triumphs and lift you up when you need it.
If you are struggling and you need to get back on track I invite you to leave a message here and just talk about what is going on to keep you from reaching your goals. Describe what you really want out of your life and how you plan to get back on track beginning tomorrow. My readers will support you and they will help you brainstorm ideas to help you get on track. Often just making a plan and putting it to “paper” is enough to kickstart your efforts!
