Some good results coming in now and don’t forget, we are only in DAY 12!!! Cyril has reported now that he is down many inches on his waist, and what a fantastic job he has done so far! As i told him, if he can achieve so much in just a short amount of time, imagine what he can do over the extended period such as 84 days?!!!
The one thing cyril and we all worry about is the weighing scales, and we all need to move our minds away from that a bit, because it can really mess us up mentally some weeks if our weight hasn’t moved, or even worse put it on!! The reality is that weight loss never moves downwards in a straight line, and there are sometimes bumps on the road, in fact, expect them!
Once you are moving down that road though, you can become unstoppable as long as you are continually doing the right thing, and many of you are, some at a quicker pace than other. Debbie mentioned the tortoise and the hare story, and that’s quite true, as long as you are all moving in the right direction, you will all get there.
It’s always important to do in the right way too. Don’t go too low on your calories for the quick fix, you want to be showing some progress right up until day 84, and not feeling so hungry that you are miserable all the time!!
Your lifestyle has to fit into this too. As i have mentioned in several posts, i have given many examples of shorter workouts that are destined to give you enormously good results.
I have given you advice and which foods to buy in your supermarket, ideas for meals and there’s even family ideas in there so you can compromise with your children too. This is not some kind of spartan regime, it’s meant to allow you live a healthier lifestyle for the rest of your days. If you manage to do this, and there’s no reason why you can’t, the quality of your life will be very much enhanced and when this happens, life becomes very much more fun!!!
We have the weekend coming up, be interesting to see how tomorrow goes because saturday’s is usually your fun and relaxing day. I’d bet some money on it that those treats you thoughTyou couldn’t do without will soon become sickly and not quite so nice as before. Same as today, you may be having your treats tonight, the trick is to still enjoy them, but try not to make it one big binge that lasts from friday to sunday night!
We are in day 12 and most of you should see some benefits coming through pretty soon or already! Sticking at it is the secret!
