Happy Monday my Friends
As we pass the halfway point in January, take some time to reflect on how things are going for you. This month we have been focusing on the "Key Behaviors" for weight loss and weight maintenance, we started with selecting a word that will keep us motivated and conscious of our Goals, then we established a tracking routine, and I love how so many of you are keeping your tracking streaks going and reaching new milestones, last week was about adding more protein and fiber, and keeping our foods interesting and filling too by adding more flavors, and bulk from our fruits and veggies to stay satisfied for longer.
For me this has been a tough month with the Chocolate, which started in early December and I felt it was controlling me, logically I knew different but my body just took over, I was obsessed, by really paying attention to last week's topic I am happy to say I am now 5 days without Chocolate, and I have put all my supplies in "Timeout" until I feel more in control and able to have one piece and enjoy it. No matter how many years on program, we all still have areas we struggle with, and it's normal, so if you have an area that's a little out of control, don't beat yourself up, acknowledge it and make a plan that will help you.
Getting back to WW basics is a great start, tracking everything, moving more, getting enough sleep, drinking water, meal planning and grocery shopping for your plan, this is guaranteed to get your head back in check and you will feel calmer too.
This week in our workshops we will be talking about being active. Getting regular activity and Tracking it, is a key behavior to practice, it is also the key to weight maintenance. One way to make sure you get regular physical activity is to do what you enjoy.
So what do you like to do for physical activity?
Everyone has the ability to do something that helps them maintain physical activity, for example: Chair Yoga, Pilates, Stretching classes, aqua fit, indoor cycling, elliptical, walking either on the spot or on a treadmill, or outdoor walking. It's just finding what you enjoy, and creating a happy routine.
What we do know from all the research out there is if we don't maintain mobility, we will lose the ability to be mobile as we get older. This article gives some great ideas on The Importance of Maintaining Mobility as You Age: https://experiencelife.lifetime.life/article/the-importance-of-maintaining-mobility-as-you-age/
