Well, it helped that there was someone to do the menu planning.

If she was really that determined she would have done it herself. Anyway, it's great she's losing weight now.

Yes, with the help of friends or someone you can do many things which you wouldn't do when alone or without any help!

When people is on a diet with you it motivates you more than if your alone

I agree. You are motivated to follow your plan because there is someone doing it with you.

Yeah, not only did he get motivation but a lot of help in planning and preparing food. She's lucky.

support from others is the best way to help yourself... not everything can be done alone...

Thats very true Challenger, take myself for example, im not being able to loose weight cause i have nobody by my side to help me and it's really distressing!

well said...i was alone doing my dieting and found it difficult to really be honest to it. at the supermarket i was always tempted to buy things that were not meant to be bought and later on id curse myself why i bought it.then i started sharing my dieting with work colleagues and we would talk and share and it became natural to just avoid the wrong kind of food.i was actually proud of myself when i would share that i didnt buy this ice cream or that slab of red meat whilst shopping!we do need companions ...
