Mistakes to Avoid This Year for Easy Weight Loss
Think Lifestyle. Make it work for you! Your schedule, both fitness and nutrition, must fit into your lifestyle. When is the best time for you to work out? Make sure your workouts are at a time that is manageable for you. If you're someone who likes to eat out quite a bit, find and research healthy restaurants with portion controlled meals so you can still enjoy the ambiance and experience of a restaurant with healthy fare. That being said, it's probably a good idea to balance out time eating out and time eating at home. Also, don't forget to treat yourself! Have one cheat meal per week to satisfy any cravings and treat yourself for the great work you're done all week. Think moderation, not deprivation.
Schedule and commit. Schedule your workouts, stress reduction and even healthy eating just as you would any other meeting or commitment. You must be 100% fully committed in order to reach your goals. No excuses. Your workouts are equally as important as any business meeting. It's your body and your life. In order to be 100% productive, you must be feeling and living at 100%. It's that important.Finding inner peace and the weight I was born to be has been a lifetimes quest for me. Over the years my body has fluctuated from a massive size 30 to a size 16. As a child I was always overweight. Eating was a way of gaining attention from my father. All be this negative attention, it was better than no attention at all from my child-like perspective.
If truth be known I have spent a majority of my life wearing my 'Fat Jacket'. Through all of this time, fat or thin, I never knew what it was to actually love myself. I had perfected the technique of looking happy on the outside whilst inside I was crying.At last I have realised that this is a journey of a lifetime with no end goal to achieve or weight to attain. It is an ongoing journey in life of weight loss management to find and nurture the best love affair I have ever had - this time with myself!Today a dear friend offered me a loving insight into what other people think of me. The interesting thing is that it did not match my personal perception. The mirror I look into reflects back at me a vision of someone who is just not 'Good Enough' (sounds familiar?). With that attitude it is no wonder I find it impossible to love myself, sustain healthy eating habits and exercise regularly.
