Holidays are Over!
Well nearly over. You should have already thought about your health plans for the new year. I am NOT talking about 'I am going to get in shape' type of plan. You need something more concrete! SMART goals. Specific, Measurable, Attainable, Realistic, Timed.
A SMART goal is:
Who/What/When: I am going to lose at least 5 pounds in three months and keep that weight off for the remainder of my life.
Why: I want to maintain and/or improve my health through self management and not have to rely on prescriptions and doctors to fix preventable issues before they become problems. I want to live independently. I want to have confidence, feel younger, move more freely, reduce pain, prevent injury, and reduce illness.
How: I am going to incorporate more physical activity into my life everyday by either parking further, taking the stairs, doing 20 squats a day, dedicating time to strengthening my body or seeing a personal trainer.
Stop waiting around until you are sick and in pain. Manage your life responsibly. Move more, eat healthier, sleep enough, and start feeling better.
