The most important weight loss buddy you need is you. You’re the only one who has the power to take complete control of your life, so it’s YOU who needs to be nurtured and cared for. So don’t be afraid to put numero uno (that’s you!) first. After all, who feeds you? Who determines whether you exercise in the morning? Who puts you to sleep? Who makes the decision to eat right? You! Therefore, it’s you who must become your own greatest ally and friend. Only then will you ignite your deepest motivation to take better care of yourself and treat yourself with the greatest care and respect. Once you do this, others will feel more able to unconditionally nurture, comfort and support you. To become your own greatest friend, there are three steps you must take: 1. Accept your current self (no matter what); 2. Find your Passion Reason; and 3. Use a journal to express your feelings.
