"I'll Begin When...."
Sound familiar? Waiting for the right time to begin your fat loss program?
I'm wondering something....
What is the magic in waiting?
What do you expect will suddenly be different one week, two weeks, a month from now?
As Busy Moms - there will always be too much to do. And guess what....there is no “perfect time” - except the time that you can take RIGHT NOW - to make a firm decision to begin something that is Overflowing with benefits into your life and the lives of your family.
If I told you that you could...
~ Have more energy
~ Eliminate cravings
~ Dramatically reduce stress
~ Drop a Jean Size
~ Feel good about yourself again
Would you smile, look me in the eye and say...."No thanks, not right now, the time just isn't right" Huh...?
If not now -to Look and Feel great.... then when? And when that time arrives....what is to prevent you from making the exact same statement? Then you look up to find another year has passed!
So what are you hoping to accomplish by putting off what you deserve to have right now?
It is quite unfortunate that during the holiday season, on the cusp of the New Year where "resolutioners" come out of their sedentary lifestyles for a brief moment as they promise..."This time I will lose weight" - only to find themselves defeated yet again as they quickly revert back to old habits.
It's pretty obvious that this approach just does not work. Taking the easy route, the route that allows us to stay with unsupportive, familiar habits is giving us nothing in return - in fact it is draining and taking away your 3 sources power ... your valuable time, money and energy.
Super Busy Mom, Sarah Z. came to an amazing realization...
"One of the things that has been holding me back was needing to feel like everything was 'in place' (more or less) before I took the time to exercise.
I felt like I had to 'have time' to exercise.
Nope, I've got to make time, I know...but now I know what that really means.
It means making time to do it REGARDLESS OF THE CHAOS around me. I am now starting to visualize a messy house (not too hard :) a stack of piles waiting for me -- and me exercising anyway -- and then tacking all that stuff AFTER I've exercised."
This is a brilliant realization and one you need to take to heart, moms.
