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 diet coaches are members of my weight management support groups. I turn to you here and the other groups when I'm having problems. It is so helpful to have a place to vent, have understanding, and get advice.

Yep, this group - thanks all, and ermabom, is my regular fellow poster on the GDT Beck thread. Mr. Lani is mostly onboard with healthy eating. I guess I'm his diet coach.

I'd say these boards are my coach and support.
