During the summer season I found
many reasons for falling off the 'health wagon'-too hot to cook, too hot to
walk or exercise, and so on. The coming of the Fall season brings cooler
weather here in the Midwest. The leaves begin to alter color and I discover I
must change (get rid of) some of my excuses for falling off my exercise
program. I can no longer declare it is too hot to take a 30 minute walk. I
likewise can no longer utilize 'heat in the kitchen area' as a reason not to
prepare meals ahead of time. I have actually found it is easier for me to
preserve my healthy eating strategy if the food is already prepared or requires
restricted preparation. I am also able to retire earlier, therefore more able
to get up in a timely method the early morning, (I am retired and have tended
to oversleep this past summertime.) I have actually decided to utilize October
1 as the start of my health and hornsby fitness year. Here are the 5 factors that
brought me to this choice.
- There is a lull now between the summer season cook-outs and the holiday feeding season. I have around 3 months to lose 10 pounds. This is only a little more than 3 pounds each month. Therefore it is a sensible target to attain. A cool benefit of entering the Holidays with my weight down is that I will not have to punish myself for a few steps off my fitness course.
- Developing a new plan and routine will assist organize how I invest and utilize my time. I will be more efficient and can establish requirements that can then be evaluated (around December 15). In addition to providing a plan of action I will have a yardstick to determine the seven minute workout I will be executing. Working out three times a week for only 7 minutes each sounds like something I can do and stick with. My plan is to weigh, take and tape-record my measurements then retake them on December 15.
- Preparing food for a number of days at one time will provide me more downtime. Although I will invest 2-3 hours in preparation on one day, the balance of the week I will only spend a few minutes warming my meal. Another plus is that I will not have to go through the experience of determining what to prepare and verify that I have all the necessary components. More spare time implies more time to check out with good friends, 'shop', read, etc
- IF NOT NOW, WHEN? It is constantly easy to hesitate and postpone doing something one thinks about undesirable. My plan is to turn this into a pleasurable activity that becomes a way of life modification.
- Losing 10 pounds now will offer me a head-start on my 2012 fitness plans. I will look good with a 10 pound loss; actually excellent with a 20 pound loss, and very great with a 30 pound loss. Moreover, I will have implemented a way of life change that is an excellent foundation for increasing the quality and length of my life. In my viewpoint absolutely nothing prospers like success. A three month amount of time is easily workable and now is all we have. We can not change the past or manage the future, however we supervise of now. Please think about joining me and transform, renew or start your health and hornsby fitness regular today.
