Okay, another season has changed and so has the motivation you find yourself struggling with. You may be finding with the cold season quickly approaching, it sounds better for you to get in your comfy wear and snuggle up on the couch and watch a good movie.

WRONG!

Hello, what have most of you been saying to me during summer, you know Sher, once summer is over I am going to get really serious with training hard and eating right. Ya, did we not throw that out the window or what?! I am talking about staying strong with your words.

Your making it sound more like your doing me the favour then yourself. How did you feel this past summer in a bikini? Yup, enough said! Well it’s time to use this season to your full advantage because the next excuse I will hear will be, “It was Christmas Sher everyone made it hard for me to stay strong, I promise by Spring I will train hard and eat right.” Blah blah blah.

I know, I have been there and have used those excuses myself. That’s what it is, excuses! But, then again, when we feel down and miserable we take shots at ourselves feeling sorry for ourselves and wanting sympathy because wanting a healthy lifestyle is too hard to achieve.

Are you kidding? Its not hard, we make it hard!

Why?

Sugar is our weakness and exercising in our minds is tough until we actually get it done and the feeling after our workout is amazing…

If you stick to a good meal plan and train hard for one solid week by lifting weights 3x a week and cardio 4 to 5x, lets see how you feel after that? Does that sound good to you? It certainly does to me. Hey, I have to live a healthy lifestyle not because of my career choice but because I was diagnosed with a condition in which fitness saves me! Now let it save you. Live well and live long – let fitness be your friend not your enemy.

Enjoy.
