Workout and weight loss on wheels- support
A support partner can make exercise more enjoyable. Choose the person wisely, make sure that (s)he understands your needs and goals because if not it will just create problems. You need a good balance between firmness and compassion. That means you can't say "one day off won't hurt" because that could lead to straying from the routine. Criticism must be constructive not nasty, but the person should be there for you when you need a friend. The person must be genuinely interested in helping or they and you won't be dedication to reach the goal. Therefore the ideal partner is someone who is in the same situation- wanting to lose weight. Family members are often not the route to go for many reasons. It's your project so it's ultimately up to you to succeed.
