Add Support, Lose Inches [From Real Age available on Web]
When it comes to weight control, does it feel as if it's YOU against the world? Add some other players to your team to help you win the losing game.
Sure, you need to be quarterback of your waist-loss team. But you're much more likely to succeed if there's someone to high-five you when you're doing well and to give you an encouraging squeeze when you're not. That's why we strongly recommend finding a YOU partner -- be it a spouse, a friend, or a coworker -- someone you can talk with about reaching your goals, planning your meals, and getting past your mistakes!
Studies suggest that buddying up really works, especially when it comes to exercise.
More: Make a plan to touch base with your YOU buddy every day for 5 minutes to talk about what you ate, how fast and how far you walked, and what ups or downs you experienced. Your buddy will be your sounding board and your comfort system as well as the person you're "accountable" to. With accountability, you're more likely to make a permanent change. But you shouldn't be the only one relying on other people; try to find a support partner who needs you as much as you need him or her. After all, the most satisfying experiences come not from the sixth scoopful of Haagen-Dazs but from sharing the knowledge and support that will help both of you reach your goals.
