Well this blog seems all to relevant again. I just wanted to remind you we’re all in this together! I‘m sure you’ve fallen into the same routine everyday. Now, it’s time to get back on track and get that body moving.
Not eating healthy and ditching workouts can produce quite the pilot effect in your weight loss and health if you don't stick to a plan.
The following tips below have worked the best for me.
1. Rise and Shine: Don't sleep into the afternoon. Following a similar sleep, eat and workout routing all week is ideal. Nevertheless, if you need to snooze a little longer as soon as you open your eyes take a bite of something nutritious and get your body up and moving! Walk, run, jog, workout DVDs (my personal favorite) or yoga!
2. Avoid starting the weekend morning off with a heavy breakfast.
3. Workout Partner: Whether it's your children, spouse, or a co-worker USING FACETIME, maintain contact with an accountability partner that will keep you on your toes and vice versa.
4. Look for items around your home that can be utilized as weights, or even use the stairs as steppers or stairclimbers. Be creative!
5. Step on that scale or pull out the tape! I am a strong advocate for scales and measuring tape. By establishing where your base point was on Friday, you will keep yourself on a path trying to avoid being 5lbs heavier Monday Morning.
6. Limit alcohol: I know, we all want to relax come the weekend, but downing a whole bottle of wine or liquor is not the way to go. Moderation is essential!
7. SETBACKS ARE TEMPORARY: If you do over-indulge or slip up, don't throw away the whole weekend. Take a timeout, it's okay! Go for a 30-45 min stroll around the neighborhood, or start anew in the morning. Wake up with the mindset that you will stick to a plan and yesterday can't be redone. You can do this. One day at a time.
