Rise And Shine


It's been difficult staying motivated to eat healthy and workout, but I've been trying to stay positive and motivated. Couple of things I've realized about losing weight is :

1) It should be for YOU - not for anyone else.
2) Don't be discouraged if you're not seeing results at first. Everything takes time.
3) Make it a lifestyle, don't expect the weight to stay off if you're only putting in effort for a month.
4) Your end goal should be realistic, not everyone can look like a model. Learn to love yourself.
5) Don't compare yourself!

Personally I'm trying to lose weight to be healthy and feel strong. I've been having health problems for the past couple of years due to bad eating habits and an unhealthy lifestyle, but am slowly making changes to my diet and lifestyle. It's OK to have cheat days (in my book at least) because you shouldn't deprive yourself, but everything in moderation.



Love, Sharon

  2. I've found that the more healthy food I eat, the more I like it and the more likely I am to eat it again (and even choose it over unhealthy food)! The hardest part is getting started, but it seems you've gotten over that hump, so you got it! Yumm, yogurt and fresh fruits :) -Audrey | Brunch at Audrey's

  4. Great tips and I completely agree. I am 5'8 and 150 lbs. and in order to look like a model I would literally have to starve myself. I'm not trying to look like a model anyway-I'm just trying to get healthier! :p

    Good luck!

  7. Great advice, Sharon! Like you, I realized that I mostly wanted to be fit and eat healthier. I love food too much to deprive myself from it, but I do compensate with extra workout (jog, bike...) and not overdo it when it comes to servings. Good luck on your wellness goals!
