?? CALLING ALL MUMS - Do's & Don'ts

To all the mums out there who LOVE their children dearly but...

?

Are delighted their little darlings are back to school so they can get themselves back on track.

?

To say goodbye to those post-Summer holiday wobbly bits.

?

And hellooooo to:

?

?? Regaining their confidence, clothes fitting better and just feeling HAPPIER with how they look/feel.

?

Perhaps you're not a mum and just want to get fitter, stronger and feel sexy again.

?

Either way, what you do NOW is by far more important than falling off the wagon.

?

If you’re fed up of not looking/feeling how you want.

?

This is your perfect opportunity to DO something about it.

?

So here's some do's & don'ts to help you make that process successful, enjoyable and sustainable.

?

What Not To Do:

?

?? Don’t get sucked into gimmicky fitness products/diets.

?

Yes we all want results yesterday but unfortunately, it's just not how it works, especially if you want to lose weight ans KEEP it off.

?

A calorie deficit is the only rule to fatloss - nothing needs to be extreme.

?

Sensible, common sense eating and regular exercise wins every time.

?

Think portion size, food quality, snack frequency and getting those steps in.

?

If you want faster, more accurate results then use my FREE Calorie Calculator and track your food.

?

The aim is to focus on your weekly calories and daily protein goal (forget about carbs/fat).

?

?? Don’t compare yourself to others.

?

Comparison is the biggest thief of happiness.

?

Your chapter 5 is going to look totally different from someone else's chapter 5 so just aim to focus on watering your own grass and forget about others.

?

?? Don't expect things to be perfect.

?

So many people give up because they ate something they 'shouldn't' or missed a workout.

?

EVERY single positive choice you make is a step in the right direction so don't sack off your whole day or week because you went slightly off plan.

?

?? 1 healthy meal is better than 0 healthy meals.

?

?? Doing 5000 steps is better than 2000 steps.

?

?? Stopping at 2 bags of crisps is better than 3 bags of crisps.?

?

Something is ALWAYS better than nothing!!

?

What To Do:

?

? Split your goals into ‘bitesize’ goals.

?

They’ll be more manageable and BOOST your motivation each time you achieve them.

?

? Write those goals down and hold yourself accountable (tell family, friends, social media).

?

If it's written down, it's much more likely to get done and a little bit of accountability goes a LONG way.

?

? Surround yourself with positive, like-minded people.

?

Happiness is infectious.

?

? Do something every day that takes you out your comfort zone.

?

If it doesn’t challenge you, it won’t change you.

?

? Try things you haven't tried before.

?

Variety is king.

?

? Write down all the benefits of achieving your goals and make the list visible.

?

When it get’s tough, look at the list….it’s ALWAYS worth it!

?

? Tell yourself every single day that you CAN.

?

Removing the word can’t from your vocabulary and injecting more positive words is highly empowering.

?

? Make time for yourself, family and loved ones.

?

Being healthy and happy isn’t just about having a great body!

? Be thankful for every day you get the chance to wake up and live life.

?

This is a privilege denied to many.

?

Gratitude also attracts happiness and positivity.

?

? Put these tips into ACTION : )

?

Your life won't get better by chance.

?

If you want change, you have to create it.

?
