I heard about a couple of women (on Rachael Ray's show) who lost hundreds of pounds by asking their friends and families to sponsor them.
Not in a financial way but for general support. Some helped them by exercising with them, others helped them eat better. One offered to shave his head when she reached a certain weight, another to buy her a dress. Another friend offered a free haircut and so on.
The point is, these women got their loved ones on board.
It's not just about weight loss. Whatever your goal (to write a book / run a marathon / retrain for a new profession / clear debt or save up for something), allow your loved ones to help you get there.
Whether it's encouraging phone calls or practical support, they'll keep you accountable. And when you feel loved and supported, you'll be able to push that much harder...
