What’s your healthy weight?

January 19, 2009 By: Kim Category: General Fitness, Motivation, Uncategorized

“Motivation is what gets you started. Habit is what keeps you going.”

This week is healthy week, so what does that mean? That means this week we are going to focus on what we can do to reach our healthy weight and maintain it.

With January comes everyone thoughts of losing those last 10 pounds, within weeks of January 1st.

Stop right their, thoughts like that are self-defeating.  Ideal weight loss is any where from 1-2 pounds per week.

So, what are you thoughts around healthy weight?

Making the change!

January 06, 2009 By: Kim Category: Motivation, Uncategorized

45% of people make a new year’s resolution yet less than 10% keep any of them.  Is it because they pick to many or is it because they aren’t ready to change?  Do we set our bars so high that when we don’t reach them we get disappointed and give up?

In order to make changes we go though 5 stages of change.

  1. Pre-contemplation — someday you will (insert the topic)
  2. Contemplation — someday soon I will do it
  3. Action — today is the day so watch out
  4. Maintenance — I got this

What stage are you in?  Don’t be afraid change is hard! You will get discouraged, you may question yourself, may be afraid to look like a fool, but guess what nothing easy is ever worth it

So, get moving!!!
