Back to School and Time to set those Weight Loss Goals
on Tuesday, September 8, 2009 in Help & Motivation
It’s that time of year again…time to re-visit those weight loss goals. Back to school signifies a time of new experiences, fresh starts, and organization. It’s a second chance at that New Years resolution you made to get in shape and lose the last 5 pounds. With a few simple changes and additions to your daily routine, you can still achieve your goal before the ball drops.1) Set realistic weight loss goals
Don’t expect to lose 10 pounds in a weekend. That’s a definite set up for failure. Set an attainable goal of 1-2 pounds a week through sensible nutrition and regular exercise.2) Eat a healthy breakfast
Ignite your mind and metabolism with a satisfying combination of whole grains and lean protein.3) Plan your meals
Make a plan for meals a few days or even a week in advance. Without a good plan you could easily find yourself plugging quarters into the vending machine at that 3pm crash.4) Join a gym
Take advantage of the deals that most gyms offer at this time of year and make an honest commitment to working out.5) Take action
Don’t want for motivation to get you moving. Action inspires motivation, so just get up and do it.Setting and adhering to specific goals is a surefire way to success. September is another chance at a new beginning, so take advantage of it.
