People just don’t wake up one day and are FAT! (or for that matter - old). It is a process. Your current body and fitness level is the results of choices you made in the past, which are the results of thoughts and beliefs you have running through your head all day long.
Do you want to know what your mindset has been regarding your health and fitness? Just look in the mirror – the results are right in front of you. (That was Dr. Phil like wasn’t it?!) Regardless of what you say – your current body speaks louder than words. Ok, just look at your health and fitness over the last 10 years…how often did you get sick? How much body fat do you have relative to muscle mass? How many injuries have you sustained, and more importantly, how fast did you recover from those injuries? How many diets have you started? And how many gyms, classes and resolutions did you start? How often do you look in the mirror and not like what you see? To create new thoughts, attitudes and habits that lead to successful fat loss, follow the principles I’ve outlined below.
#1 Prioritize
It will be impossible for you to loose weight or improve your health, unless you make it a priority. There is a saying in the industry that you cannot lose weight to improve your health, you must first improve your health to lose weight. Please read that again. If you are not healthy, you cannot loose any substantial fat weight unless you are reasonably healthy - both mentally and physically.
But to prioritize you must first focus on what you want and set goals to improve your health by reducing stress, eating better and exercising the right way and fat loss will happen as a result. (I Promise.)
“The key is not to prioritize what is on your schedule, but to schedule your priorities.”

So here’s your homework…. What do you really want? And when do you want it? Go a head write down a few goals (no more than 5) and then list them by priority….
