In order to achieve your weightloss goal, you need some kind of support group to see you through the tough times - you know, those times when you’re screaming for donuts and burgers but you know you have to reach for a carrot or celery stick instead.

People who have been on any form of diet will attest to the fact that the temptation to give up is so strong that, most of the time, people do not follow their diet til the end. This is where a support group comes in handy.

Dotti’s Weight Loss Zone

The Zone is actually Dotti’s website which she started when she went back to her Weight Watchers program after failing for the first time. The second time around, she understood what she lacked in her first try:

  • the right frame of mind
  • support from others like her struggling to lose weight

Other than psyching herself up for her second round of Weight Watchers, she also posted on her site's message board to get support from people across the globe who were going through the same weight struggles.

Dotti found that the support she got was not only overwhelming, but proved to be just what she needed to stay on the program and, in fact, discovered some other ways of losing weight.

On her site, you'll discover Dotti’s journey to reaching her goal with some pictures that will reveal how she went from a plus size to just the right size.

Dotti's Zone

Once Dotti reached her weight goal, she enhanced her website to include tips she learned on her journey - from good restaurants, recipes, low calorie foods, and such.

Dotti also started a newsletter that anyone interested can receive via email, where they can learn more about better options to lose weight and other weight-related issues. The site also includes other helpful literature from people who have gone through the same weightloss obstacles; success stories, and other helpful hints on losing weight from other experts.

The good thing about Dotti’s Weight Loss Zone is that she does not horde all the space to advertise her success, sell her merchandise, and exclusively promote just her. She has opened the site to anyone who wants to reach out to others currently undergoing weight problems.

They say a picture paints a 1000 words. Sure does here. What a change, it's the start of a new life really isn't it. Great hub. Great advice. Keep writing.
