1) Get active; do something actively fun; participate in THE RUSH. And...
Yes, "that" does counts too ;-P
Actively fun stuff: spin class, aerobic class, the gym, a walk, a run, skating, skiing, snowboarding, sledding, lifting weights, swimming, ... just to name a few!
Get moving, a little each day. Begin with small goals, walking a pet, taking a stroll with a friend, simple really. Shake what your mama gave ya :)
2)Remember it is hard; life that is. However, you're never given anything YOU can't handle. SUCK IT UP PRINCESS!
3)DRINK WATER; as mentioned before! It's THAT important!
4)Be a positive role model. Would you be friends with you? Lighten up, be the sunshine for others!
5) Don't be too hard on yourself. People you encounter daily can do that draining thing to you; don't let you - do that to you! If you don't make it to the gym, IT IS NOT THE END OF THE WORLD! If you decide to consume an entire bag of cookies, NO ONE WILL DIE! Just make certain you don't choose to form a habit - learn from your oopsies!
6) PUT "IT" DOWN, NOW! Yes, NOW! Not Monday ;) Eating right doesn't begin...tomorrow, Monday, after the holidays, etc. Eating smart begins with TODAY, NOW, THIS SECOND! Stop putting off what you can control immediately.
7) Express your thoughts. In a journal, to a friend, a medical person, your pet, whomever. Work through your ideas, set a goal for the week, think about something important for 2 minutes a day, conquer a negative memory... Living healthy begins with your melon people. Strengthen that noodle!
Celebrate, have fun and don't get caught - have a wonderful weekend!!!!
WW :)
