How long is a piece of string????

I will tell you in a moment but first a funny story!!!!!

Meeting with an amazing group of smart and savvy business women brainstorming idea's about how to help women in their roles.  We are the powerhouse of the home and we put ourselves at the bottom of the to do list.  Can we all agree that we do soooooo much to keep our homes and families on track but we do soooooooo little to support our emotional and physical health.

Ok so back to the string.....From a fitness perspective I wanted to help these amazing women be accountable to their goal which was to improve their nutrition and fitness and fit into skinny white jeans in 3 weeks!!!!  eeeeekkkkkk!!!!!!  Yes we all know what we need to do cut out gluten, reduce our processed foods exercise a little more blah blah blah!  But to be held accountable...wait for it....here comes the piece of string !!!

We need something to help hold us accountable and measurements are the way to go!  If I told you I was going to do your belly button and  hip (butt) measurement in 3 weeks do you think it would motivate you to work a little harder in achieving your goal.... I bet it does!!

So instead of making an excuse of not having a tape measure so we couldn't do measurements we used string!!!!  Job done and quite a motivator when the string is pinned to your office wall....Great motivator!  So that's how long our piece of string was x
