Pre-prepped Meals: Setting up for Success

Last week I was surprise when I opened Todd's fridge and found he had prepped several meals for his week. I love the initiative of him setting himself up for success. This is a routine he is integrating into his new healthy lifestyle. This week he will be traveling a couple of days, I am looking forward to seeing how he handles being on the road. He's traveling with a co-worker who is very health conscious and supportive of his commitment, so that will work in his favor. I will have to ask him if he plans to workout with him. That would be best. Even when traveling we should be committed to our health.

Todd resisted taking a photo or weighing himself, but he pushed through and did it.

I'm so proud of him for overcoming mental blocks and emotional reactions. Now that we are measuring his progress it gives us an opportunity to celebrate successes and evaluate strategies.

He want's to drop 80 lbs. He had us do an awesome exercise the other day where we walked around the gym holding 50 lbs. We put them back on the shelf we walked around again and it was a great way to  imagine how good he is going to feel when he drops his first 50.
