Day 6 – Find a Diet Coach
Support is an important part of our success at this. Beck advocates us getting a diet coach to support us with help and encouragement through our journey. Today’s assignment is to get you a diet coach.
A diet coach will:
Keep you motivated.
Build your self-confidence.
Help you to solve problems.
Keep you accountable.
Help you take a more useful perspective.
Sources for diet coaches:
A close friend or family member.
Do the Beck book with someone.
Join an organized group.
Find a diet professional.
Investigate internet support.
Beck suggests you discuss things at least weekly with your coach, initiate more communication when you have problems, and contact daily if you are really struggling.
If you have a diet coach, tell us about it, if you don’t tell us who you might get as a coach.

My coaches are the coach at my in-person WW meeting, the people in the meeting, and the people in my online support groups. I think it is important to have someone you can talk to about your weight management journey.

My coach and cheerleader is my sister. We have been doing this together for over a year. We check in by email with one another daily...often morning, evening and in between.
Additionally I have online groups I can refer to or post in and that is helpful, too.

If you have a diet coach, tell us about it, if you don’t tell us who you might get as a coach. My diet coaches are: * My daughter * Judy and BBR posters. * Mayo Clinic Connect coaches and posters. * WW virtual meeting coaches and members. * My doctor.

My goddaughter, my WW coaches, Judy and our tribe on the BBR. 📣 I love how our posters keep it real and help find real solutions that sometimes aren’t/can’t be addressed in a WW meeting.

My husband has been a terrific source of support, my college roommate and this group. I’d love to pull my sister back in when/if she’s ready.

My diet coach is everyone on these fabulous boards! And my best friend and my husband are great in times of need.
