Push Towards Your Healthy Weight Loss Goals

New Year’s resolution time! Not all, however can achieve their goal resolutions each year. When setting healthy goals for future success, it’s imperative that you begin the process with a clear healthy mindset. One that empowers you with the realization that you, and you alone, possess the ultimate tool to improve your situation.  Setting them is the only first step along with making a plan and a system in place to guide you and keep you on track.

Turn your 2018 into your best year and reach your weight loss goals by incorporating these tips:

Establish a clear vision of what you want to achieve – If you’re really serious about achieving your goals, make them SMART.  S.M.A.R.T. is an acronym that stands for specific, measurable, attainable, realistic and timely.  This will help you achieve bigger goals you may want to set for yourself over time.  Change can be hard so start with one small change you could pursue throughout the year.

Get into a proper routine – Developing a good exercise routine is critical to maintaining your overall health. Variety in your exercise routine is a great way to keep it fun, and mixing up where and when you exercise will put the enjoyment back into the sport. Try to find a buddy to join you in your daily exercise routine to help break out of a rut and make time pass more quickly. The most important thing to remember is that exercise need not be a chore. Keeping an open mind and trying new ways to exercise will allow you to keep your interest and motivation up for years to come.

Adopt a mantra – Progress and not perfection. According to Adam Gilbert, founder of My Body Tutor, this is the best mantra you can adopt for yourself. Chasing perfection is futile—instead, seek progress. You can choose to make your next eating choice healthful even though your last meal was less than perfect. If you only have ten minutes to exercise, it is better to do it than not exercising at all.

Eat a Balanced Diet – They are important for managing your weight and help ward off major health risks such as heart disease, high blood pressure and risk for type 2 diabetes. Although the basic principle of healthy diet is just simple, most people are having a hard time sticking to it due to a super busy lifestyle, work or an environment that is not conducive to having a healthy diet. Begin making more nutritious choices in what you eat and drink by sticking to low fat meat, fish, vegetables, fruits, grains, cheeses and foods that make up a balanced diet.

Cut out the bad habits – Choose a substitute for your bad habit. Although eating is a very social aspect of being a human it is important that you try to change this in your mind somewhat. Of course special occasions can be the exception, but in your day to day life you should see food as fuel and not as entertainment or comfort.
