Sacrifices you have to make in order to achieve your fitness goals… or any goal for that matter! When people start working out, or have a goal they want to reach, you will have to realize that you will need to sacrifice a few things: food, time, and lifestyle.
In order to lose some weight, it will take time, food, and a lifestyle change. This is the first step to making a change, there’s really no way around it! Your lifestyle will change, but you will learn to not over-indulge in items that you love. Losing weight takes time and a mental shift that is needed to maintain your ideal weight. The ONLY WAY to do this is change the way you were eating before.
Time. All of us are running out of time constantly. Life is demanding and we are busy, but a lot of us do have downtime that we can work on our health. However, we aren’t super-efficient with our time right now. Committing to a fitness goal, you will have to sacrifice things in order to achieve your goal. Maybe start off small and just commit to 20 minutes to move.
Lifestyle will have to be addressed too. Your lifestyle has contributed to your weight surplus and you’ll need to address this in order to achieve your goals. Food, time, entertainment, family, and friends always intersect. Maybe that weekly happy hour with the girls, poker game, or family dinner needs to be adjusted to suit your goals. These are lifestyle changes that people really need to make in order to see the changes they want!
There is no way around it, there are sacrifices that need to be made in order to achieve your goal. Having a conversation with yourself about what’s really required of you to achieve your fitness goals will help you succeed
