Reach Out: Motivation

What keeps you motivated to lose weight?

This question runs through our minds daily. We were reminded of it again when we ran across a blog article that shared a weight-loss success story.

It's easy for all of us to let our motivation die, especially when we hit Labor Day BBQs and head into the fall.

Sometimes, we get re-charged by hearing from someone else who reached their goal. So take a moment and let us know -- what keeps you motivated?

We're in this together.

Reach Out: Diana D'Abruzzo's weight loss journery

Oftentimes we get so caught up in our own journey, that we forget about others who're in this fight with us...

The truth is, we need each other. Sharing our stories -- the good, bad, and ugly -- bond us, and pick us up as we strive towards our goals.

So we thought we'd share Diana D'Abruzzo's story with you all. As a member of a Wilmington, NC news staff, she regularly wrote about her weight-loss journey in a column for over two years, where she lost 150 pounds! 

She's since moved to a different paper, and the column stopped running. Naturally, followers of her story grew curious of how she's doing. So, her former team caught up with her.

You can click here to read their conversation.

Diana's story is honest about the ups and downs she's still dealing with. It's easy to relate to her and be reminded that we're all in this fight together.

We wish Diana all the best as she works to drop more weight and reach her goal. You can also reach out and leave comments for Diana on the story.

Here's an excerpt from her posting:

"Is anyone out there doing the challenge? Anyone out there who has thought about making the move but hasn’t yet? Mid-year resolution anyone?"
