​Slow down to go far

Yay! You’ve decided to jump-start your exercise and eating plan – and we are so psyched for your new journey!

Here’s some friendly advice: Baby steps will get you farther than racing off the couch to the gym five times a week.

Healthy habits take time to build, just like those bad ones did. And you don’t want to set yourself up for disappointment by taking on too much too soon.

Think about it. You’re more likely to develop lasting success slowly, each win adding to the last.
​

• Make gradual changes to your diet, trimming some amounts and items first instead of cutting out all the “bad stuff” right away.
• Reduce consumption of sodas and alcohol gradually in favor of water or other calorie-free beverages.
• If you can’t run, walk until you can. (This one works literally and figuratively!)

This is how you avoid crashing and burning – by succeeding one step at a time.


​Happy training!
