Little Tips for Weight Loss 2

·         EXERCISE -  The hard truth is that no weight loss will be effective in staying off without some sort of exercise.  My advice is to do something you like and do it with MUSIC.  The right music will have you running faster, or breathing more deeply etc.  Never force yourself, but go ahead even if its just 15 minutes.  Take a walk in the park, dance to a song or two in the kitchen, do some home chores, walk the dog, run to the gate and back.  GET UP AND MOOOOOOOVE!  Funny thing is that you might get addicted to moving it!

 

·         PLAN PLAN PLAN -  Plan and pack lunches to ensure that you dong have the “HUNGER BRAIN” – a brain that is hungry will tend to go for bad foods, if you have the snacks packed you will be saving yourself from extra calories.

 

·         PRO & CONS – This is brilliant to see why your goal is important to you and what it would take to get there.  You might have “Ill be able to wear that Little Black Dress, Ill be able to run in the garden with the kids or something as simple as I will walk up the stairs without feeling out of breath.  YOU CAN DO IT!

 

·         DO NOT SHOP WHEN HUNGRY -  I have found that I will buy the wrong / bad foods and want to get out of the store ASAP.  Have a snack like apples handy to just get you by while shopping – DO NOT STARVE YOURSELF!

 

·         CHART YOUR PROGRESS -  This can be on Excel or hand drawn – show yourself the chart to keep you motivated!  It shouldn’t look like a rollercoaster and more like a easy slope down a hill! *THINK SKIING LESSONS!

 

HOPE THESE TIPS CAN HELP YOU ON YOUR WAY TO A HEALTHIER & HAPPIER YOU!
