In the struggle of losing weight what I learned is that when one changes their mindset of food, the easier it is to notice what a negative affect it has on our bodies. After years of eating in ways that damaged my body, recognizing the problem, and everyday bettering myself because of it since, today I am at my healthiest. A change did not occur in my life until I stopped wishing for the results of a long time goal and instead worked day by day. I took the opportunity each morning to plan what I was going to do and one thing I was going to do differently. Soon enough new habits were created and Skinny Jeans became Boyfriend fit.
First think of the bigger picture, then focus on what will get you there.
1. When grocery shopping shop in the outside aisles. Fresh fruits and vegetables add color to your diet and extra flavor to your meals.
2. Take a day to prepare your foods for the week. Tupperware should be labeled.
3. Water and Green Tea are essential fluids that cleanse the body properly every day. Pop is SUGAR!
4. Try new foods! The Humans taste buds change every 14 days.
5. Always take two bites less than what will make you full.
6. When you think about the Culvers Butterburger, STOP.
7. Make realistic goals and spoil yourself after completing them.
8. There is no excuse not to do more work than you did yesterday. If you have legs you can squat.
9. Involve others in your workout. No one has ever said they regretted it!
10. Run three miles instead of two.
