Community Motivation
The Biggest Loser Pound for Pound Challenge is a new program that allows you to pledge an amount of pounds that in return goes to feeding the homeless in your area (Every pound you lose,14 cents is donated to Feeding America). What better way to start helping yourself than by helping others. You can even create local networks where you and others can work together to complete your goals. Having a supportive community with like-minded goals can help you especially when things get tough. Currently, I'm in a group called BeFitNola, where several individuals pledged weight loss goals and are working together to achieve.
Personal Motivation
A great personal motivation is to go out to the mall and find a sexy outfit and buy it in the size you to get into (Keep In Mind: BE REALISTIC). Work hard to get in that new sexy dress, you don't want to waste your money. It's just a little extra icing!!! Tip: If you don't want to actually buy the dress yet, go to your favorite website and find you something sexy and print it out.

Tips to start new healthy lifestyle
- Talk to a doctor. ( Check with your doctor about what should be your goals, how to do it, and etc)
- Create a plan/ Make realistic goals. (Create a plan that works great for you and that's realisitic, everyone doesn't lose weight the same or in the same time frame so create something for you)
- Take your time creating healthy changes. (Work at your own pace!)
- Create or find a support system.
- Love the skin you're in. ( You will never be able to live a fully or healthy lifestyle if you first can't love the original skin you in. Love yourself at every size and every flaw)
