(via When should I exercise? | Evolution Fitness)

We are all guilty of the never ending list of excuses ~ why not to exercise today, this minute, this hour; why not to stop eating the cookies or chips while watching a movie; why, why, why! We have all made them at some point; what an easy way to let ourselves off the hook! The primary reason we make excuses is because of FEAR. Fear of failure, fear of support, fear of time, fear of actually liking the change! If you want to lose weight & maintain a healthy lifestyle, you have to do away with the excuses. Yesterday I asked Facebook followers, Evolution Fitness www.facebook.com/evoluti onfitnessny , what their biggest obstacle to weight loss is and received a lot of great responses. Here are their responses: Vacation Kids/Caregiver Too much to do Food (beer, ice cream) Time Emotional Eating Spouse Hunger Fatigue Myself Overeating Boredom The #1 answer to each of these excuses is PLANNING! We have to PLAN to eat healthier. We have to PLAN out our meals so if we are on the go with the kids we are not grabbing fast food. We have to PLAN our day to make sure we are not bored or mindlessly eating. We have to PLAN what we are eating and document it (in a notebook or a free app like MyFitness Pal or Sparkpeople). If you join either of these let me know so I can cheer you on! Yes it takes work, yes it takes a little bit of time UPFRONT BUT in the end you will reap the benefits. Here are a few things to do TODAY to stop the excuse vicious cycle: * Identify your excuses * Develop a plan to side-step your excuses * Develop a No Excuse Contract * Recruit a friend or family member to hold you accountable; better yet, have them join on the journey with you! * When you feel like overeating, mindless eating, boredom coming on, go for a walk or call a friend. Just get OUT of the kitchen & away from the food! * When you find you are too tired, tell yourself you are going to go for a 10 minute walk and see if you can build up your time every time. * Most importantly, when you are on vacation, at a summer camp or just out of your own element ~ give yourself the opportunity to enjoy A treat but get right back on to your routine the next meal and get back to logging! Everytime you find yourself wanting to make an excuse, take a step back and think how you can overcome that excuse! YOU CAN DO IT!
