Living in a healthy and fit body can be an amazing confidence builder. It can also, remove years from your appearance. To tell the truth, we all desire to keep that youthful look for as long as possible. Losing some unwanted pounds, will help you reshape your body. For most, the face will be the first area that will be notably different. Facial fine lines can be reduced and the new look will also bring on a new confidence in the way you carry yourself.
Take a mental look back 10 years ago and imagine what your weight was then. Let that weight be your milestone. Set your fitness goal for 2013, with that weight number in mind as incentive. Once you achieve that goal, parley your success and keep going. Below are four tips to make the journey easier.
Tip #1 - Go Shopping
Before you start your fitness quest, I suggest that you go shopping. Purchase that nice outfit in the size that you aspire to be. The thrill of shopping for clothes in a smaller size will help keep you motivated. Once you get your new outfit home, take a photo of it and post it on your refrigerator. This will be your daily reminder to stay on point.
Tip #2 - Get Rid of Bad Habits
Over the past 10 years, I am sure that you have developed some bad health habits that contributed to your weight gain. It's time to forge some good habits. A good place to start is in the kitchen. If what's in your refrigerator or cabinets, conflict with your fitness goals then, it's time for it to go. If it's open, toss it in the garbage. If it's unopened, bag for charity. As adults, we all know what is healthy and what's not. It's time to be honest with yourself and say "I don't need this stuff anymore". Bad foods only produce bad results.
Tip #3 - Exercise
As part of this whole process, exercise is a must. You don't even have to join a health club. As long as you've got gravity and a plan, you can get a good workout. Although you can lose weight without exercise, you must have muscle to facilitate the expenditure of calories. This means that if you decide to not take my advice, your results will come much slower than you want.
Tip #4 - You Must Hydrate
It's recommended that you drink at least eight 8 ounces glasses of pure water a day. This is not a difficult habit to start. Furthermore, if you start your day with a glass as soon as you wake up, it will be even easier. Weird but true. Remember, your body is mostly comprised of water. It's vital to your bodies' functionality, so drink up.
