After starting a medically supervised weight-loss program, Marc Poe lost 125 pounds (including 60 lost during the 12-week program), Poe loves playing basketball with friends. He walks about 20,000 steps a day and is making healthier food choices.
He shared some lessons learned that helped him go from “zero willpower” to “I can do this”:
- Making a major life change is hard. Use the support and resources available to you.
- Accountability works. Track your food. Share your journey with friends so you can keep each other accountable.
- Focus on progress, not perfection. Expect at times you’ll eat too much or make poor choices. Regroup, restart and remember losing weight isn’t an “all or nothing” thing.
