So how are those New Years resolutions coming along? By now more than half of those who set weight loss resolutions have already given up. Why? Well in most cases its because they set goals but didn't take the time to build a plan. Think about it, you wouldn't jump in your car and drive to another state with out directions. Sure you would most likely get to your destination but your going to waste a lot of time taking wrong turns. Successful weight loss and maintenance requires a plan. Not just a meal and/or exercise plan but a game plan for how you are going to handle all of the challenges and obstacles that are guaranteed to show up.
For me it wasn't until I did my first bikini prep diet that I realized how important this game plan is. Anytime you decide that you are going to change your habits you have to accept that you will be around many people who didn't change and that's ok. Just know how you are going to handle difficult situations, such as going to a birthday party. Here's where your game comes in. Before you get there decide... are you going to indulge in party food but cut your portion sizes? Are you going to bring your own healthy food? Are you going to let yourself eat whatever you want and get back on your plan for the next meal? None of these are wrong, as long as you plan ahead and stick to it.
I hope this helps you reach your goal. If you would like help creating a personal "game plan" I do offer private coaching sessions.
Good Luck!
