“But I’m too busy, I don’t have time!”
I know that mantra all to well, I used it as my defense mechanism, prior to starting my weight loss journey. But when you really have to do something important, you will always find the time, even on your busiest of days.
I had to have a good stern talk to myself about making time. At the start of my journey I thought I was a very busy person. I was very busy at work yes, and as a mum yes. But in actual fact, if I was really honest with myself. I was very busy keeping up with social media, watching TV, and ‘faffing’ around with unimportant chores that didn’t add any value to my life!
We are often really busy doing ‘busy work’ that is not adding any value to our lives.
I realised very early on in my weight loss journey that you have to make and create the time to do the things that are truly important for change. You have make the time to go to meetings, or debrief your week with a friend, or plan your week, shop for food, prepare your food and yourself for the coming week. You also have to make time to exercise. All these things seem insurmountable when you first start your journey. But change one thing each week and add a new tool to your armory each week and you will be well on your way to thinner, stronger and fitter you!!
My tip today would be - sit down at the end of each week and schedule some time to fit in another thing that will help you get to goal. It might be, planning your food, portioning your food, exercising with a friend, going to your Weight Watchers meeting or any other great idea that will help your overall success.
Just one change each week will add up to many little changes, that will become apart of your regular daily / weekly routine.
Today,
My wish for you is...
You will find plenty of time in your daily life to make small changes that will amount to big changes for your health and well-being, as you get further into you weight loss journey.
