Yesterday we talked a bit about making excuses and following through with what we set out to do. It is SO easy to talk ourselves out of putting forth effort into our health. You want to know how to combat these excuses?
ACCOUNTABILITY!
It's not so easy to back out of your health journey when you have to report back to someone else. I'm not talking about a drill sergeant, just someone to keep you on the right path. Someone who will support you and cheer you on, yet be firm in not letting you get lazy.
In my private health group, we are practicing accountability for the month of November. Each evening we will post what we ate, how much water we drank and what kind of movement/exercise was done. There will be days we give ourselves a high five for nailing it....and there will be days we do the post of shame for not doing so well. As unhealthy as it is, I still enjoy from time to time a Big Mac and fries. I'll have to be accountable for those days, but they may not come often since I have to let others know.
Who do you know that would be a good accountability partner for you?
