Hello, Weight Watchers! Did you have a good Independence Day holiday? Holidays give us the perfect opportunity to practice Breaking the Family Norm in regards to our relationships with food and physical activity. Norms are behaviors or ways of doing things that are accepted as standard by your family or community. When we’re growing up, norms teach how to handle new situations and how to behave. However, sometimes our family norms support eating in excess or limiting physical activity, which can hinder our weight loss. Traditions and norms are important, but this is a good time to toss out any traditions t hat support an unhealthy lifestyle and start some new, healthy traditions!
