Request For Support

Dear Friends and Family,

I am in the Positive Choice Weight Management Program learning how to change my actions, thoughts, and feelings as they relate to food and eating. In order to reach my goal of taking charge of my weight. I need your support and encouragement.

You can encourage me by complimenting me whenever you notice me taking positive actions such as exercising, keeping records of my eating, or drinking the OPTIFAST supplement. Please try to notice when I am doing something other than eating and congratulate me.

You can support me by not finding fault or criticizing program. It has been found that words of advice, suggestions or wisecracks usually cause more harm than good. Please don't say such things as "That stuff must be terrible to drink" or "A green salad can't hurt; just have a bite."

I need experience using the new behaviors I am learning. Please include me in social activities while I am fasting.

Thank you for your support and encouragement.

Love,
Donna
