YOU MADE IT!!

The moment you know you “made it” in fitness is when you…

Make the right eating choices because you want to, not because you are on a diet.

Work out because it feels good, not to lose weight.

It takes a little bit of time to get to this point.

Just like anything else in life, you gotta put in the reps.

The more you eat healthy and work out, the easier it gets.

After a while it becomes a habit and you do it automatically.

That’s when you stay in shape forever without diets or challenges.

It’s simply a lifestyle you love.

I’m rooting for you.

Take the first step today and let’s make it happen.

We live in an environment designed to make it easy to gain weight.

Fast food is everywhere.

Most of the foods at the supermarket are processed.

We can order anything we want by pressing a few buttons.

Losing weight is harder than gaining it because it’s more inconvenient.

In the beginning…

Once you make working out and eating healthy a habit, it’s pretty simple.

Our environment determines our results.

That is why being part of a community of like minded people is crucial.

Not saying you can’t get in shape on your own because you definitely can.

However it’s going to be much harder and boring compared to doing it with other people who support and motivate you.

Losing weight is as easy as gaining weight.

To gain 20 pounds in a year, you only have to gain 0.38 pounds a week.

To lose 20 pounds in a year, you only have to lose 0.38 pounds a week.

You don’t have to work out for 2 hours a day or do a strict diet to lose such a tiny amount of weight.

You only have to make a slight tweak in your weekly exercise and eating habits.

After that, it’s all about consistency.

The progress will be slow and steady but once you lose the pounds, keeping them off will be easy.
