Focus on Fitness, Not Fat
One problem that many of us face when we go on a diet or start an exercise routine, is our goal. Often, the goal is to look good. Looking good, however, shouldn’t really be the goal. The goal - when you change your diet or start to exercise - should be to become healthier and more fit. When this is truly the goal, it completely changes your outlook and your mission. Rather than hoping to fit into your “skinny” jeans, you are hoping to breath more easily, to feel good walking a mile, to have more energy, and to feel healthy. This completely changes how you approach your food and your fitness. When using the bender ball, going to the gym, passing the cake by and doing that one extra lap at the pool, you are working towards an overall feeling of well being. Keep this mind shift in mind - you’ll be amazed by the difference that it can make in your approach to wellness.
