Weight Loss Challenge events provide the accountability that all but the most disciplined need to succeed.
It's sadly amusing that so many people embark on a weight management journey without considering the creation of accountability. We didn't have the discipline to prevent gaining weight but assume that we'll conjure it up somewhere along the way and execute a successful diet. Without an accountability mechanism in place it's just too easy to rationalize and talk ourselves out of the goals we had before the pain of change attacked us.
Most don't know the real reasons they gain weight and fight so hard to lose it and they don't know how to monitor themselves and use that data to make corrections to their program to get the best results.
Enter the Weight Loss Challenge, a competitive event disguised as a weight loss program, or visa-versa. I'm never sure because it's something different for everyone and that's the beauty of it. Whether you came for the coaching, the camaraderie or the phat cash prize you are going to get the whole package anyway.
The Weight Loss Challenge is simple. Pay a small fee, usually $35, $10 of which goes to charity and $25 into the kitty for the biggest losers, and attend a 12-week course. No purchase is required and any healthy weight reduction program is supported. You can bring your own or let your coach suggest one for you.
Weekly sessions include taking weights and measurements, celebrations for milestones and accomplishments and key lessons on subjects ranging from calories to shopping and exercise to dining out.
The key part to the success of the Challenge is the weekly accountability and sessions with your personal Challenge Coach. In between the weekly classes you progress will be reviewed and suggestions made by your coach to coax the most success from your program.
Since each person is different their challenges are different as well. Most of us are "too close to the problem" when it comes to losing weight and your coach will help you look at your habits objectively. By taking into consideration your needs and goals along with your obstacles you get the very best results and develop habits that will support life-long wellness.
Weight Loss Challenge Coaches are committed to your success and the relationship with your coach continues long after the 12-week challenge has ended. The accountability created by the weekly weigh-ins and the friendly peer pressure make success more likely.
