SUPPORT

Now that you know what your caloric intake is and you have a spreadsheet to keep track of everything you eat in a day I want to talk about one of the most important parts of calorie tracking. This is the reason I entitled the blog "Family Weight Loss Plan".

You need Support. This goes beyond weight loss. If you are a person that likes to improve yourself each day (having a desire to lose weight puts you into that category), then this step is essential to all of your goals!

As I mentioned in the about me section, my wife and I have three children and after having the third we both realized that in the midst of creating life we'd created a little bit of extra weight for ourselves too. She was the obvious person to be my support!

Finding someone to help you or go with you on this journey is even part of the third step of accountability. If either one of us didn't write something down a certain day, then the other was their to make sure it happened. If one of us had had a bad day, then the other was their to make sure the next day was a good one.

Maybe your choice isn't as obvious, I realize that. If you can think of a good friend or family member or your entire family to do this with, then point them in the direction of this site. You can all do it! The point is FIND SOMEONE!

If after all of your efforts you can't find anyone, then shoot me an e-mail or a comment and I will be that support or find someone that can.

One step left.
