Fit Tip of the Month
Burn Excess Calories
In order to lose weight, you have to burn more calories than you take
in. The good news is that you don't have to exercise all those calories
away because our bodies use many of the calories just to stay alive. However, if you don't burn off the calories that your body is
not using for its regular daily activities, they will be stored as
excess fat.
Personal training is one effective way to burn calories, and depending on your goals, you can:
ˇ Lose pounds and inches
ˇ Reduce body fat
ˇ Improve self-esteem
ˇ Increase energy
ˇ Sculpt and tone your body
ˇ Boost strength
ˇ Enhance goal-setting & accountability
ˇ Prevent cardiovascular diseases

Overcome Temptation
Bring less tempting foods into your house. If chocolate cake is your
all-time favorite dessert and you have a decadent chocolate cake
sitting on your kitchen counter, staring at you every evening after
work, you most likely will gobble it up in record-breaking time.
Even
the most dedicated and diligent people will succomb to temptation if
they're hungry and the only thing available is something sweet or fattening.
The biggest culprit of sabotaging your healthy eating intentions is
your regular trip to the grocery store because it's during this time
that you decide what you will and will not bring into your home. While grocery shopping, try to think long-term. Don't just buy what
you're in the mood for at that particular moment, but try to anticipate
your future cravings as well.
Take a little extra time to plan your shopping trip and make good choices while at the store. Your hips will thank you for it!
