What Motivates You?

  2. Execute – Shop, Cook, Chop and Pack your Meals, Get your gym clothes and bag ready to go in your car so you don’t go home and get lazy.



Drink Water Before Your Meals


Drinking water a few minutes before your meal will help you prime your digestive system but also helps you feel full.  That’s helping the binge factor and decreases the number of portions that you may eat.



Increase Your Movements

Besides your planned exercise session, add more movements throughout your day, most especially for those who have a sit-down job.   So instead of taking the elevator, take the stairs.  Breaktime, take a walk around the block instead of sitting in the breakroom.  Play with the kids, rake the leaves, etc.

No matter how small the movement is, it’s still factored in the number of calories your burning throughout the day.


Brush Your Teeth After Your Dinner


After your last meal, make this your nightly ritual because of who wants to re-brush their teeth after eating again and again.



Get To Bed A Certain Time



Nighttime is usually when mindless eating happens.  You’re relaxed, and bored and wondering what to do… You ate your last meal, you brushed your teeth…now, it’s time for bed.  Set a specific time when you go to bed.  Turn off your TV, phone, lights off.

Make this habit non-negotiable and get your 7-8 hours of sleep.  Your body needs rest, recovery and quality sleep to optimize your weight loss program.

Your good night’s rest will help you hormonally, optimize your immune system and how you function the following day.
