I think this is a very useful quiz it helped me think about how I would like to be supported and how I could support others.
Tomorrow is my Slimming World meeting. Its great to get support from the consultant and other members but its really at home and at the church potlucks for where i need support.
Day 9 of 100days of Weigtloss
In the quiz below, pick out the answers that fit best for you. If the answers don’t exactly
work for you, come up with some different ones that match your needs.
I have put my answers in bold and italics.........
1. If you see me eating something that’s not on my diet plan
___ Ask me, “Should you be eating that?”
___ Ignore it entirely
___ Ask me if I’ve had a bad day
___ Give me a hug
DISTRACT ME......MOVE THE FOOD AWAY FROM ME - I WONT BE OFFENDED :)
In fact my friend Lorraine did this few weeks ago I was half way through eating a second piece of Baileys Cheesecake after trying really hard to ignore it and she took it out of hand. Thank you Love I needed that.

___ Compliment me on how I look

___ Give me non-food gifts or rewards
3. When I’m struggling or gaining weight
___ Tell me you notice and really care about my struggle
