My brother Jared and his family visited over the holiday weekend and I got talking with him about blogs.  He’s had a personal blog for six years but never started posting until recently.  Now he’s a regular “blogger”.  We both agreed that the blogosphere is an excellent medium to inform, entertain, inspire,… the blog can be anything you want it to be.  As long as you blog, that is.  So I ask him, “as busy as you are with work and family and everything else in your life how is it you find the time to blog regularly?”.  And he said “you just do it.”  It was the intonation in his voice that got me.  A light flipped on in my head illuminating a previously dim section of grey matter where regular blog entries were hiding.  “ahhh, I get it now”  I said to him, “you just do it”.  He saw it in my eyes, “yes” he affirmed, “you just do it”.

I am a Health Coach with Take Shape For Life.  I lost weight with Medifast and now work full time helping others do the same.  I talk to a lot of people everyday who are on this program.  From incredible successes to daily struggles to everything in between I am involved in the lives of hundreds of people on a regular basis and have learned a lot about the Medifast program.  And what I have seen thus far is that those who “just do it” are those who are losing weight, getting off medications and just plain getting healthier.Â
To put it another way, I have yet to see anyone follow the protocols of this program correctly and not lose weight.  Maybe it’s in the intonation or maybe it’s just timing but when you really want something, “just do it” makes sense.
