Some daily motivation when things get tough

Hi all, thought to discuss when things get tough... how to cope?
firstly, well done on all your achievements that you have done so far, never underestimate the power of true commitment and hard work, its never easy starting a new routine or giving up on something which seems to be normal to you....

I must say that when things get tough always say the above,it may seem a little silly at first but the power behind self talk is incredible as well as mind blowing, it can change your attitude on how we perceive and see things in our daily lives, take this for example if you keep on saying continually to yourself 'im so fat' what will your body look and feel like you may not realise that you can change it by saying 'i feel incredible' keep repeating these words as little or as often as you would like and you may feel the difference it makes to your self confidence.

You may not be at your ideal weight yet but give it chance,it does take about 4 weeks for people to notice difference in you, firstly what I would suggest you do is take a great before photo and measurements as bust,waist and hips you can do others ie arms,thighs and buttocks if you would like to take extra but very important to do this at least on a fortnight basis,you may see little changes like inch loss and very important dont always worry about what your scale says,to me that was always my main concern but now days I know inches is even better as your body will change shape, your clothes may start getting loser fitting and people will certainly start to notice the changes.

Dont forgett drink plenty of fluids but if you can water,this is extremely important as water will help you sustain your hunger,also before hitting the snacks try drinking water prior to just grabbing something you think may be necessary at the time but after eating it you feel terrible....

Some great tips for you to take on board:
1.Drink plenty of water daily and try drinking water prior to eating any meal
2.Eat 5 small meals a day
3.Eat slowly
4.Know your serving sizes
5.NEVER SKIP BREAKFAST
6.Cut down on alcohol consumption
7. Enrich your diet with fibre
8.Good posture - it strengthens your tummy muscles
9. Cut out the sweets
10. At least 5 servings of fruit and vegetables

I do hope these tips have helped you a little, I will try do a blog from time to time and do hope someone out there finds it inspiring and motivating


Until next time, Take care and take it easy and dont forget to smile and drink water xxx
