The Challenge of a Resolution

I’ve been feeling motivated to write a blog for the first day of 2018.  For the past week, I’ve known I would write something, but nothing came together in my thoughts, no topic outlined itself for me.  Today, I realized that one of our recent meetings of The Main Meal Weight Management Group addressed the challenge we face when we are trying to make changes in our lives.  It seemed like the perfect thing to use at this time when so many of us are making resolutions for the coming year. 

Happy 2018 to all my readers.  May all your challenges be small, and all your goals be great!

An Excerpt from The Main Meal Weight Management Group

So, each of us is here because we are trying to make changes to our bodies and/or our eating habits.  And we each have a plan in place that we think will make those changes come about if we follow it.  But while we are working our plans, these people, events, and situations come along, and they seem specifically designed to blow our plans out of the water.  We are all very much aware that we will always have challenges in our lives and I’m sure we’ve each developed coping skills to meet most challenges.   But we have a weak spot where weight management is concerned.  So, let’s talk about some ways to meet these challenges that are specific to dieting and weight management.
