No More Stop-and-GO
How many times have you started a diet or exercise plan, seen results, then stopped whatever it was that you were doing? And then you’re back to where you were before—or even heavier and less fit.
The first week seems easy. You’re highly motivated to change and losing weight is a priority. Nearly everything you do this week will seem to revolve around sticking to your weight-loss commitment.
But perhaps as soon as next week, or in the weeks after, losing weight may no longer be your top priority. Other things in your life may trump your exercise plans or derail your meal choices through no fault of your own. Life happens. Gradually, it will become very easy to go back to those same habits that made you overweight and unfit.
But there’s no need to get discouraged before you even get started! If you commit to following the plan as strictly as you can this week (cutting out excess calories, exercising on schedule), then you’ll start to see some results that will inspire you to carry on.
For this plan to continue to work, however, you need to integrate smart eating and exercise in ways that are somewhat similar to your regular life. If you make dramatic changes that run counter to who you are, it may be too difficult to stick to it longer than just a few weeks. But if the approach you take is simply an improvement on how you already live, it should be much easier to maintain.
Remember one thing…
Nothing Tastes as good as been in Shape Feels
