"person who serves as an example, whose behaviour is emulated by others"
Who is that one person in your life that has really made a difference, a person who makes you go.....oh yeah......Well, we all have those people, or I should say I hope you do. I know I do. I actually have a few of them. They are the people who make you realize that weight loss is important, weight loss is achievable, weight loss is really up to me and help me know that I CAN DO THIS! A role model to me is someone who also.....has been there. Someone who understands what I am going through, and someone who struggles from time to time...just like me. A role model to me at this point in my life not only has lost weight, but is wanting to be healthier for it. Not just cosmetic!
HOW TO BE A POSITIVE ROLE MODEL

lead with dignity and compassion
maintain your composure under pressure
educate by example, not empty words
