Ready, Set, Goal

Do you ever feel like there is too much to keep up with when it comes to healthy living? Does it seem overwhelming to focus on all the components involved? Does creating a starting point, being prepared and coming up with a plan feel like the most difficult parts of gaining or regaining control? These three components are the three most important areas to look at when committing to a healthy way of living and working towards a goal. Start by deciding what you want. Do you want to lose weight, tone your body, learn healthy habits? Next, be prepared. Commit to one day a week for grocery shopping, food preparation and meal outlines. Then come up with a plan. Make your plan week specific to keep your motivation level high. This week focus on increasing your water intake, next week think about your carbohydrate intake, the following week incorporate new endurance exercises. It is this combination of being mindful that keeps us motivated and working towards being the best version of ourselves.
