FC/SLGJ - Tip of the Day #5

[Airfix]

Well, I only have about half of the weigh-ins from Friday so we'll roll forward until this Friday (I did get a couple of comments about not realising that we were going to weigh again so soon).  So, I'll ignore all last Friday's weights and we'll have a long week 1.

Here's today's tip:  One battle at a time

If you are overweight and you smoke, you are extremely likely to suffer from serious health issues in later life.  Whilst it is important to make changes to your lifestyle in this case, it is important that you don't try to tackle both problems at once.  If you do, you will probably lose focus on both issues and fail.  So, one thing at a time.  If, during your diet, someone asks you when you will tackle smoking too, it is important to remind them that you have only just started to make a change to your ways and that each battle deserves respect and time to be won.  For you it's weight now, smoking later.


Keep going!
