Success goes around!
Success breeds success:
Start the momentum of eating right, exercising, or just doing something nice for somebody and you start something that in no time at all is rolling along almost by itself. OK, ok, so it doesn't feel that way ALL the time, but I would dare say that most of the time it truly is that easy. I've been through it when it still felt so hard to make the right choices, but looking back - it wasn't hard at all. I was the only reason it was hard - I was putting "me" in the way of my success.
How do we put ourselves in the way? We listen to our mind say, "You can't do this, it's too hard", or "One bite of cake is OK, I mean you did do well most of the day" - or it's the body that talks back saying, "This is going to hurt too much, do your cardio tomorrow instead" or "I'll switch today as my rest day and do todays workout over the weekend" - does any of this sound familiar?
So how do you team up with you mind and body for the better? There are probably numerous strategies that you can employ, but what I have found to work well is "Public Accountability" - meaning basically to make it a point to let others know that you are changing your eating habits, exercise habits, share with them your goals - you'll be surprised by how many people will truly want to help you. Sure, you'll get those doubters that try to bring you down, but shake it off - the key here is that those people you talk to are going to ask you how things are going down the road, as well as they are going to be the ones checking you out next time they see you to judge for themselves if you've lost any weight, or firmed up any of those loose spots.
Take this one step further by signing up for your first 5k race, or a bike event - make it something challenging enough that you're going to have to develop a training plan to prepare for it. Invite a few people to do it with you! Before long you'll be a true success story and all your friends will be asking you for help in reaching their goals - now that is a great feeling!
Veggie Tales!
I soooo love eating veggies, but I run into the problem of not having them prepped and ready to go. So my latest solution is the veggie tray from the supermarket....but with a twist! As you run out of the various produce, just keep the tray and keep refilling it. Our family is on our 3rd refill and I can tell you that pulling out a whole tray that has a great variety of fresh veggies has made our pre and post dinner snacking much healthier.
Great advice for all of us snackers!

Depending on your exercise program and caloric expenditure you may wish to adjust some of the snacks to fit your needs. Play around with the famous 4:1 Carb to Protein ratio to find out what works best for you in terms of weight management/performance/recovery.
First Post!
I am very excited to be taking the steps toward healthier living. Through diet, exercise and awareness of my mental state I have lost over 50 pounds, and now for the best part --- I get to start helping others on a regular basis take some of the same steps on their own!
As a wellness coach at the Daily Shake (Blaine,MN) I am educating clients about proper nutrition and exercise and following through with them regularly to help them succeed. The products that I sell through the Daily Shake are Herbalife products which are just amazing. Most of our customers find that by replacing 1-2 meals per day with a healthy, delicious meal replacement shake that they feel fuller longer, have less cravings, more energy overall.....and alas, they lose weight.
If you've tried other diet plans where you struggled to lose weight and all the while felt run down and miserable...well..I would highly suggest you give the Herbalife products a try for one month.
I give all of my customers 10% off their first order of $100.00 of product, and from then on I have referral point programs that allow you to continually earn a percentage off of your next monthly or bi-monthly order.
So what does this all cost? To replace 2 meals per day with the shake mix protein, and receive the multivitamin and cell activator breaks down to $5.65 per day. All you need beyond that are 2 healthy snacks and a healthy portion controlled dinner.
