{Free Printable}
It's a brand new day, a brand new year. Time to recommit again. We are one week into January and I can venture to say that many of us have already fallen off the overzealous bandwagon. This year I have committed, not only to finish losing my extra fluff and getting healthier but dragging my family in to join the fun. Because of trying times our family has encountered the past few years my precious teens have piled on the pounds and I am almost certain that stress and environmental changes played a large role in their weight gain as well.Ok that being said, this has become quadrupal the fun for me {inserts sarcasm} Now, am I not only being accountable for my food, my wellness, my eating and my fitness but I have committed to daily supporting my family in their journey to remove extra fluff. Making lunches again for teenagers is all the rave haha.
I have implemented plenty of fun additions to the grueling adventure of losing weight which I will share in a future article. But for today we will talk about some simple tips and tricks to help you with your daily grind of "commitment to health and wellness".
In my view and from my own experience it is very important to keep reminding yourself of your goals and aspirations. The moment you stop looking at them visually or mentally is the moment your mind and possibly your heart decide to put them in the background while you concentrate on other things.
That why printing these tips out and placing them someone you look daily is a constant reminder of your aspirations regarding wellness and overall health.
