Quotes to ponder:

“When one person changes their behavior, the people around them also change.”

“Research suggests that weight changes in one partner are related to corresponding changes in weight in the other partner, or what is referred to as a ‘ripple effect’ of weight change.”

“When you make positive lifestyle changes, you are likely to influence your partner on these behaviors as well.”
