The Challenge: We often see exercise as a necessary evil. As a result, we may easily become bored with our routine and find it difficult to stick with it, particularly when the scale doesn’t reflect our efforts. Failing to consider the other benefits of exercise—lowered stress, brighter mood, improved sleep, and greater energy, to name a few—makes it more challenging to start or continue moving more.
The Solution: In this meeting, we will learn the many desirable benefits of exercise beyond weight loss, which may provide additional motivation to get moving and stay active. We will learn that activity can, among other perks, engage the mind and spirit and even enrich the community—whether we plant a garden for a neighborhood in need or walk to raise funds for a great cause.

"You have to stay in shape. My grandmother, she started walking five miles a day when she was 60. She's 97 today and we don't know where the hell she is." ~Ellen Degeneres
