Lose Weight. Eat Healthy. What's Your Why?

Since 2009 C2 Your Health LLC has sponsored the Michiana American Heart Association Go Red for Women BetterU Luncheon held each May.  Each year for the 12 weeks previous to the luncheon   BetterU Challengers (12 women) follow the recipe for better health to reduce their heart disease risk (blood pressure, cholesterol, weight) along with reducing their risks of all chronic diseases through lifestyle modification. C2 Your Health LLC engages the participants in the same wellness programing they provide to worksites resulting in consistent improve lasting health and wellness. This year the BetterU Challengers are from Saint Joseph Regional Medical Center, South Bend, IN. 



This weeks blog is from the Michiana BetterU Blog - Enjoy!

No matter what it is you want to achieve, there is one question you can ask yourself to get to the core fundamentals of your goal and massively increase your motivation.
That question is simply, “Why?”

Here we are at the midpoint of the Better U Challenge, 6 weeks in and 6 to go. Now is the time for a little reflection; as the famous statement goes from the movie Mission Impossible, "Your mission, should you choose to accept it" is to put into one single word what success means to you, or in other words "your why?"  

Just one word, not an essay, a paragraph, or even a sentence, just one word.  One word that's personal for you. One word with meaning and depth that goes to the core of answering the question of "why be healthy and fit for the rest of my life? One word to motivate, inspire and direct your actions as you move forward. One word that's bigger than you, and temptation to lose direction. One word to hold you accountable.
