Motivational Mondays – Progress & How To Fix a Bad Habit

fitness quotes for women
              Strive for progress, not perfection.
 
The hardest part about losing weight is the beginning. Starting something new is scary and intimidating. When people ask me where to start I always suggest to replace one bad habit with one good habit. It may take an entire month before that bad habit is replaced and that’s ok because it’s a start.
The reason most exercise and diet programs fail is because there are too many new changes to implement. The things that are “comfort” measures soon are taken out of a persons life and that is where many people struggle…and who wouldn’t?!
 
YOUR ACTION MOVE FOR THIS WEEK
*Replace one BAD habit with one GOOD habit*  - anyone at any age can do this.
My bad habit lately is not resting. I am 38 weeks pregnant and I have been go go go. Even on vacation the last two weeks I have been working, hiking, cooking, worrying, thinking way too much and causing unnecessary stress (which the baby can sense).
==> This week I will take at least one hour to REST and READ something non-baby related, something non-fitness related, and just enjoy!!
