Welcome to another episode of Chewing The Facts from MB Personal Training This week we answer a listener's dilemma, where they want to lose weight and become fitter and healthier, but their partner doesn't seem to support them.  This is a common problem, and we give our tips on overcoming this potential issue.  Enjoy!

This week, we answer a listener's question: "Wondering if you could discuss willpower especially in the workplace?  It’s hard when people are negative when you won’t have a biscuit etc... if you’re not in the right frame you end up giving in for an easy life and then beating yourself up & not getting the results you wanted that week!  I find once you say yes, that’s it your mind gives in and it’s a slippery slope.  How do you say no and not cause animosity?? Sam" We chew the facts on this one and give our opinion and our experience of it _________ If you have a question or a topic you'd like us to cover, please email:  [email protected]  - Subject: Podcast Topic We hope you enjoy this episode.  Please leave us a 5* Review on iTunes as this will help us reach more listeners
