I’m starting a healthy living tip of the day at work for our health and saftey month.

Pass on your best tips and Ideas so we can pass on all the stuff Scott has taught us.

My favourite is probably to be consistent!  You don’t need to do a lot, you just need to do small things consistently over time to get big results.  Starving yourself for three days won’t help you lose weight; cutting 200-300 calories a day consistently will.  Spending even 5 minutes a day doing something productive will give you huge results in the long run.

Cheers,
Julie

Great one Julie...and it works so very well.

My personal tip is to always keep your end goal in mind, however set smaller and achievable goals along the way to keep motivation in high gear. For example, if you want to lose a lot of weight, say 50lbs, set weekly goals of 1-2 lbs and once you achieve that first one, set next week’s goal and drive to it again. Your journey toward your end goal will seem so much shorter and more fun too, not to mention more rewarding as you keep hitting your “small” goal week after week! That worked really well for me and I lost 97 lbs following this tip.

Food journal. When I use one, I lose weight, when I don’t, I gain a bit then maintain.
