Top 5 Tips to Get Fit This Summer

Top 5 Tips to Get Fit This Summer

1.Stop believing diets don’t work
Americans have been programmed to believe diets don’t work because of the inability of the average person to stick to them, and their unwillingness to take responsibility for their own failure. Make no mistake: many diets work very well. Because an individual lacks the mental toughness to stick to a diet doesn’t make the diet any less effective.

2.Stop waiting to be rescued
When most people put on some weight, they blame the food companies and restaurants. Not only that, but they expect something or someone to show up and save them from themselves. Fit people know the only person who can save them is the person in the mirror. The hero on the white horse isn’t coming to save the day. The mantra of fit people is, “I am responsible.”

3.Stop eating emotionally and start eating strategically
For the average person, eating is a way to enhance pleasure and ease pain. Fit people avoid emotional eating, choosing to eat only when hungry. They use logic instead of emotion to dictate and control their food intake, and are acutely aware of the tendency to use food as a drug.

4.Know there’s a price to pay
If you want to become thin and healthy, you will pay a price. There’s no such thing as a painless diet that doesn’t require discipline or sacrifice, and no magic pill, potion or lotion that can make you thin. You will sacrifice and call on every ounce of willpower you have. Why not just suck it up and get it over with?
Use failure as a motivator. The fact is everyone on earth has failed at something. Many of us multiple times. You are not alone. The reality is the past doesn’t equal the future, so take the failures and use them to propel yourself toward success. Never assume that things will be the same as they were in the past.

5.Don’t eat for pleasure
Eat for health. Most people see eating primarily as a pleasurable activity. Fit people see eating primarily as a means to increase health, energy, and vitality. Eating for health vs. pleasure can make the difference between world-class health and an early grave.
