HOLD MY FEET TO THE FIRE! ACCOUNTABILITY THURSDAY
Have you considered how today's decisions impact your lifetime commitment to weight control? Tell the whole truth and be accountable. Its easy to think you have it made when the fat seems to be melting away. What happens if and when that does not happen anymore?
In the long run some of us will drop pounds after a few days of eating lite. Others will struggle to thwart weight gain as they eat below the accepted calorie needs for maintenance. Understand where in the mix you fall as you make today's decisions.
...All are welcome, jump in at anytime.
