Three pillars of weight loss…

I’m sure you’ve all noticed that the nights are getting lighter, the birds are in full chorus and the snowdrops, daffodils and all the perennials are putting out their shoots!!

Who has already found that a bit of sunshine has made a difference to your activity efforts?

Gardening – getting your garden ready for the summer and it won’t be long until you can hear are the lawnmowers, and the smell of fresh mown grass.

Spring cleaning/Decorating – that welcome burst of sunshine shining through the winter grime and showing up all the marks/dust.

Heading out for a stroll when you can dodge the showers!! Making the most of nature’s vitamin D Spring Forward Spring Rolls????? Did you know vitamin D is one that many people are deficient in?

Did you know there are 3 pillars to weight loss success?

• Your Food Choices
• Activity – getting more active as you get lighter
• Mindful eating instead of mindless eating 

Of course you can can get a weight loss with only 1 of the Pillars but you will be more successful if you embrace all three!

The basics of healthy eating are available to everyone, 5 A DAY, but actually it’s a lot to do with Physical and Mental Satisfaction If you are enjoying the food you’re eating, you’re less likely to feel deprived which makes the journey so much more pleasurable and sustainable.

Often it comes down to priorities, missing your weekly meeting in favour of half an hour in the gym won’t give you the mindset, the behaviour change, tactics, ideas, inspiration and motivation that you will need to both acquire a healthy lifestyle as well as sustainable weight loss for life!

The scientific data confirms that weight loss is an 80/20 split.

That means to be successful 80% comes from your healthy eating and 20% comes from your activity So if you are missing your 20% from activity what could you do about it? How will you fit it in so that it becomes a regular habit and not a high days and holidays event? Best Foot Forward…..

The mindset you employ on your journey to a healthier, happier and lighter you makes a huge difference to your level of expectation and also your results Whether you think you can or you think you can’t – YOU ARE RIGHT!!!

If you want to be happy, set a goal that commands your thought, liberates your energy, and inspires your hopes.
