No Excuses Mentality Winner FAQ:

What is required to join the NEM group?

The only requirement is your commitment to follow the NEM as explained on The No Excuses Mentality Page on this website. The NEM doesn’t mean you are deprived or perfect. It simply makes a strong statement that your health and weight loss goals are a top priority for you and the decisions you make daily that effect your goals are based upon that priority & strong commitment. When, in the past, you made excuses to either overeat, eat poorly, or skip exercise, you now recognize this trend and rise above it. No excuses!   

Every Monday & Friday morning the NEM thread is posted on the “200+ Pounds to Lose” Community board, which is on the Weight Watcher’s Website. In that thread, we’d love to have you post your NEV’s. I’d also like to email me your NEV’s. I will choose several NEM winners each week from those NEV’s to post on this page. 

What is a NEV?

A NEV is a No Excuse Victory. This is similar to a NSV, (non-scale  victory) but is a victory that came about because you adopted the NEM. For example, previously, a habit of mine would have been to think that I was too tired or too busy to exercise. My NEV would be that I overcame my excuse making habits & exercised when I should.

I don’t have 200+ pounds to lose. Can I still join?

It doesn’t matter whether you have 10, 50, 100, or 200+ pounds to lose, or even if you are a lifetime member. Everyone is welcome! Losing weight and keeping it off is forever,  no matter who you are. This is a lifestyle, not a diet.  Come and join us!

Weekly NEV Winners!

"I am sooo happy I joined, because I almost made an EXCUSE this AM!! I woke up, tired, and cold, totally comfortable in my bed. I looked at the clock and it said 5 AM. Normally this is the time when I head out for my morning-power walk. Well, this time I said "It's a holiday, I'll skip it, and continue again tomorrow" then pulled the covers over my head. When suddenly I remembered the NEM and Kelly when she says that every day you go off plan is one day further from your goals!!! That did it, LOL, I got up, got ready, and out the door I went for my power-walk!! YEAAAAAAH!! WOOHOO!! Angela 1, LazyButt Demons 0!!"

“Yesterday, I actually told myself, "No Excuses, Dana" and went to the gym. I didn't intend to go to the gym because I whacked my ankle the day before and have a very large, very deep bruise that throbbed when I took a step. But, I went to the gym, got on the treadmill and just started walking..and before long, I decided to try to jog just because i felt like it. I don't know where that came from. I have never jogged. But I tried it and I jogged for an entire minute before I slowed it back down. I was pretty proud of myself.    Danarose2

"My NEV was fighting the desire to go off program, with the excuse of my back being hurt, and not being able to excersize. After my undeserved gain of 5 stinkin pounds last week, and now it not wanting to come off. Inspite of this, I stayed OP all weekend, drank water, and sat on my recliner praying for healing vibes to desend upon me. BUT I DID not overeat! Thats a good thing."              Diane

 

Congratulations Everyone!

This page is dedicated to DianeHelen from the WW 200+ board. She took up the mantle of the No Excuses Mentality & made it her own, plus used it to help others in their journeys. Diane has had a successful journey thus far and will no doubt continue on to the finish line. Diane is an invaluable source of inspiration & information on the 200+ board. Thank you, Diane for making the NEM a part of the success of so many.
