Day 273. Accountability.

Yesterday I posted a video proclaiming I had lost 102 pounds.  I am very proud of that.  And it only took nine months!!!!....I am not so proud of that way?  Because I could have done it about six weeks sooner had I let someone know I was slipping.
You see, Thanksgiving was my first "Food Holiday" since starting my Journey to Fitness.  I did not handle it well, and I did not let people know that.  I stopped posting on TeamDDPYoga.com, I didn't do my update videos. I didn't post on Facebook that I was sliding out of control.  I didn't call the people that have kept me most accountable (Philly and Petey).  I was VERY LUCKY in the fact that I got to met Rich Graham in person during this slide.  Had it not been for that, I fear that I my have lost it all together and gained dozens of pounds.  I know that the holidays are that dangerous.
Two weeks ago I decided enough was enough, and I started to eat MUCH better and started to exercise more regularly.  Then this past Monday I fully recommitted myself to 100% clean eating and daily exercise. I started an "Accountability Group" on Facebook and logged daily my food intake and workout.
IN ONE WEEK I lost 12 pounds pushing me over that beautiful "100 pounds off" mark.  All because I made myself accountable for my actions. Twelve pounds in six days, when I could not lose them over the previous two months of not making myself accountable for my own actions.
I ask all of you that read this Blog. PLEASE, PLEASE, PLEASE, make yourself accountable.  If you can't make yourself "self-accountable" reach out and find someone that will do it for you. I am sure if you ask someone will do it.  You are always more than welcome to join my Facebook Group:
