BABY steps...

So it's monday.....
AND like so many of us, you're thinking....this week will be the week I eat healthier!
GREAT! But what's your game plan??? It's easy to want to jump into the pool with both feet, BUT how often do you quit when that happens? What we're saying is....jumping in the deep end might be great for some aspects of your life, BUT when it comes to adopting a healthy lifestyle AND sticking to it....you gotta take BABY steps! Yep, one foot in front of the other with small leaps, you will make big bounds! SOOOOO this week, rethink your healthy profile and see where you can improve. For instance, need more veggies in your diet? A great baby step is to make the goal to eat a vegetable based lunch EVERYDAY this week, whether that be soup, salad, sandwich, hot meal, it's gotta be made up mostly of veggies! Need to cut down on sugar? Try having one sweet a day (a serving) for every OTHER day. This will help bring down your sugar cravings! And how's about breakfast? Do you skip it? This week, your goal is to wake up, have a glass a water to rehydrate, AND have a healthy breakfast. Whether that be eggs and toast, oatmeal or a quite protein bar or shake, you gotta start the day off right with ENERGY!!

SO ya get the drift? There are a ton of goals you can set for yourself this week to be healthier and eat healthier, BUT start with one goal at a time. Adopt that habit until it becomes second nature, then add a new goal to the list. BABY steps are going to get you exactly where you want to be!
