"How can I start losing weight?" is a question we're regularly asked. "Eat less and work out more" is the response we NEVER give because it's not true for the most part. Yes, nutrition and exercise are very important but you already know that. In our experience, there are 2 much bigger challenges holding you back from reaching the weight and body shape you want. 1) You have not established a long term focused. There is nothing wrong with wanting to lose weight. The problem is you want that weight to melt off your body by tomorrow at 3 pm. I'm sorry to say it doesn't happen that way, at least not if you want to keep the weight off. Instead of focusing on a short time frame, how about you expand that time frame to one year or two years? Now you'll notice that the pressure is off and you've given yourself time for step 2) 2) You're not focused on creating habits. The reason you are carrying the weight is you've created habits in your life that support you at that weight. Want to be a different weight? Create different habits. The challenge is that habits take time to form, energy to maintain, and focus to implement. All those things can be hard. Let's get you started in the right direction. On today's show, we are going to be talking about the kitchen habits you need to start adopting that can help you stick to your meal plan.
