Happy Transformation Tuesday! I’m keeping today’s post short and sweet…
3 years and minus ~25 pounds…the only thing consistent is my dress (thanks to my tailor). Once I got serious about taking control of my weight, and my life, I wrote down an exercise action plan and stuck to it for 8 weeks. I worked out with a personal trainer every Friday morning, did 30 minutes on the elliptical every Monday and Wednesday and lifted weights every Tuesday. Over time, I increased the intensity of my workouts and started eating less simple sugar. The key to my weight loss success was writing down a weekly action plan that consisted of small tangible, realistic goals. My success is NOT due to following a hardcore diet plan, starving myself or sticking to an insane workout routine. Little by little my weekly actions became habits which lead to a healthier lifestyle. If you’re just getting started on your fitness or weight loss journey, I highly encourage you to write down your action plan! How will you achieve your goals?
