In her article, Andie Thueson reveals that the secret to sticking with long-term weight loss goals lies in discovering a deeper, personal "why." By identifying the meaningful reasons behind the desire to live a healthier life such as setting an example for loved ones or being around for future generations individuals can tap into a lasting source of motivation that transcends superficial goals like appearance or numbers on a scale.

Quotes to ponder:

“We don’t pay the price for good health. We enjoy the price of good health!”

“So sit down and spend some real time to discover your why. Why do you want to lose weight?”

“The more Moms + Dads that make healthy living a priority, the healthier our future will be.”
