Invest in Yourself…
You Can Be Your Greatest Reward!
Let’s talk about investments. When you invest money in something, whether it is in a much-needed appliance, a retirement plan, or an education…you expect good results. When you make an investment of time, energy or money in something you want to accomplish, you expect a reasonable return on that investment and want to be proud of the outcome.
Many people start the New Year with resolutions with good intentions, but fail to realize the results desired. Rather than wasting time expressing resolutions, take the time to ponder and explore what investments you can make that will develop into the lifelong results you are seeking.
Do you want to lose weight and inches? Would you like to…feel and look great? Have more energy and mental clarity? Reduce joint pain and inflammation? Maintain healthy blood pressure and glucose levels? Avoid or reduce the usage of prescription medications? Improve the overall quality of your life and your family’s well-being?
The science behind long term weight loss demonstrates the best way to lose weight and keep it off is not by dieting, but by making healthy lifestyle choices. The added benefit to weight loss is improved overall health. Educating one’s self is the foundation, but making the investment to take action on the information is the catapult to achieving wellness.
It is time to break out of the trap and invest in lifelong wellness. You can begin with developing simple good habits to overcome detrimental habits that are wrecking havoc in your body.
Make a commitment to yourself to invest in a 90-day plan, one day at a time, to adopt new lifestyle choices that can radically change your life for the better.
1. Healthy Eating – Low Glycemic Impact Foods
Educate yourself on eating healthy following a low-glycemic index way of eating. This is not a diet, but new habits for life that when followed will result in loss of inches and pounds with tremendous benefits related to balancing blood glucose levels. It is encouraging to find that most people report increased energy, mental clarity, reduced pain and inflammation in joints.
2. Behavior Modification – New Healthy Habits
Learning healthy eating habits is the foundation, but taking action is most important to achieve results. Writing in a daily journal is the best way to stay focused, incorporate new habits into your lifestyle and see your progress. You will be amazed how tracking what you eat daily, your exercise and stress reduction activities and your thoughts keeps you focused on one snack, one meal, one day at a time – leading to newly developed practices and greater lifetime results.
3. Change Body Composition – Exercise & Stress Reduction
Exercising regularly is necessary for healthy living. The objective is to select an exercise regimen that meets your needs, is simple to follow and is focused on stretching, breathing and increasing muscle activity and development. If you have not been exercising regularly, a great beginning is to wear a pedometer and begin increasing the steps taken each day.
In the book, Dare to Lose, Dr. Shari Lieberman, a registered dietician and best-selling author, points out diets don’t work. If they did, people wouldn’t have to keep going on them. She dares you to stop dieting and implement simple steps to a better body by making an investment in a way of life that will make a difference for the long term. She developed the Transitions Lifestyle System clinically proven to provide twice the weight loss and three times the inches lost of Atkins, Ornish, Weight Watchers and Zone diets.
The Transitions Lifestyle System is a simple and complete approach to weight management that works by removing the emphasis on dieting and replacing it with a complete lifestyle approach. The program is delivered through a series of DVD based educational segments combined with exercise, coaching and journaling to help people either individually or in groups to take charge of their life, lose weight and inches, and realize wellness.
