Everyone has goals when it comes to weight loss or weight management. You may not realize it, but, no matter where you stand you’ll fit into any one of these goals / categories:

1. Just surfing / gaining knowledge / socializing
2. Searching for answers for a solution
3. Want to loose weight NOW
4. Want to stay fit and get proper nutrition
5. Need energy
6. Have some other health / weight related issue

One of the above categories most likely comes close to where you are. Unfortunately, a lot of people get stuck in search mode and never really do anything about what they are looking for, even when the answers are right in front of you on the screen you are looking at. Hence the saying “You can lead a horse to water, but, you can’t make it drink”.

Why?

Why do I use Herbalife products? First and to be short and simple “They work!” A lot of people argue that some of the products are expensive. Let me give you an analogy here.
We have many different landscaping companies in the area. One of them is quite more expensive than the others. Who is getting the most business? The one who is the most expensive! Why do you ask? As a customer of that landscaping company, I will tell you that it’s because of the quality of their product or work.

So, again, why do I use Herbalife Products? The first reason is of course, quality, but, here are more reasons why I use them:

1. I have had super severe sinus issues and since using Herbalifeline, those issues are GONE. This softgel is an anti-inflammatory which lead to helping my sinus / cardiovascular issues.

2. I’ve lost close to 20 pounds since this post and it’s due to a combination of using Formula 1 Meal Replacement Mix and exercise.

3. I have more energy due to a number of the products, such as Liftoff Energy Drink, Herbal Concentrate Tea and H30.

4. During the cold and flu season, I get sick far less often than I used to. This is thanks to better nutrition and using such products like Schizandra Plus, RoseOx.

These were just some of the reasons why I continue to use Herbalife products. If any of these sound good to you and you have the slightest interest, feel free to inquire anytime. Want to know more about Herbalife, check out the website. Contact me anytime for questions or to place an order.

Though, anyone can use this option, despite the opener here. It’s just a simple way of being able to get started on your own. Check out Create a plan today and start your journey with weight loss now. You can find this option in both the Getting Started and Shopping pages.

H3O is the way to go!

There are a lot of really good fitness drinks available today. For the longest time I enjoyed Poweraide. I just loved it and still do, but, I am now using a new and different fitness drink that I love even better than any other fitness drink out there. It’s called H3O. It comes in both Lemonaide and Orangeaide. You can have your choice of either a canister or a 15 stick pack box. I normally get the box because, it’s easier to use, having 1 stick per drink. This drink is very portable. Grab a bottle of water and add the H3O and you are ready to go!

Sayings like the one in the title as an example like “The Hand is Mightier Than The Mouth” if thought of in a certain way, can help one curb their appetite. If it weren’t for the hand, the mouth would starve. So in addition to any diet or weight loss effort, you need to learn how to control that hand so that less food comes in. Turn your hand from being your enemy to your friend. So, if you are going to yell at anyone for your weight issues, yell at your hand and then yourself. There’s nothing like biting the hand that feed you – he he. Just thought I’d ramble a bit.

It’s hard to believe that Season #1 has finished. It only seems like it just got started. One person lost 9 pounds and others lost at least 3 or 4 pounds during the challenge. Season #2 is ready to get started and for anyone interested, check out our Weight Loss Challenge site at the following address: http://aboveNBeyond.weebly.com for more information.

Recapping, you’ve cut away the excuses, developed positive reasons and conquered some fear on your way to defeating YOU, your worst enemy. That’s a good foundation in moving you in the right direction in getting healthier and/or loosing weight.

Now, lets do it! Let’s finish the defeat of You! It’s hard work, yes, it’s hard work and it’s not easy to achieve what you are looking for. You simply just have to work at it day by day, month by month and so fourth. It’s not a DIET, but a LIFESTYLE change that you have to accept. So here are your steps:

1. Eliminate the excuses
2. Develop good reasons
3. Conquer the fear and be true to yourself
4. exercise 3 days a week (or work up to that)
5. get on a weight loss program (or management program)
6. join a weight loss challenge (for support and motivation)
7. realize that weight loss doesn’t happen over night
8. be patient
9. Understand that you WILL win!
10. Still having trouble, start over with item #1 above

Free consultation and BMI testing available, contact us anytime!

You can do this, and it starts and stop with you! It’s time for your worst enemy to loose and for You to Win!!!

I’m sure there are some that may say, Hey! I really don’t have the money right now. And that is fine. There are those times where this is a valid excuse. However, there are those who hide behind this excuse. Now, let’s start looking at Defeating that Enemy – You!

We already covered step #1 in the process of defeating the enemy, and that is identifying some excuses that can hinder progress. Now, let’s dig a little deeper.

Ok, as asked in the post “Are You Your Worst enemy?“, you need to ask yourself, “Am I being True to myself?” After you get past the excuses and start replacing the excuses with reasons why you should get into action and either loose weight and/or start getting healthier. Once you start having positive reasons instead of negative excuses, your motivation will start to increase.

Fear can also be a de-motivator that helps you create excuses instead of good reasons to get into action. So, after you throw away all the excuses, start developing reasons, and your fear starts subsiding, your motivation will increase even more.

At this point you have started to defeat the enemy within – You!. The foundation that has kept you where you’ve been has started to collapse. Change is not always easy, so don’t beat yourself up if you find change hard. Taking baby steps thus working towards change does work.

Still not getting it? Not getting into the right grove? Not finding that perfect solution? First, start comparing yourself to a car. Think of it this way, if you don’t steer it right, you’ll crash. If you don’t properly maintain your car, it will start having problems. The same holds true for you! If you don’t take care of yourself, you’ll get sick. If you don’t manage yourself properly, you’ll gain weight. It all begins and ends with YOU! Any excuses you make will only delay or prevent you from doing what is right. Face it, you are your own worst enemy and you need to start learning how to defeat the enemy within. Absolutely any reason you give for not taking action, is just an excuse to delay or put off what needs to be done.

Let’s first start with some reasons (excuses) not to take action:

1. No Money (lost job, to many bills, etc)
2. No Will Power
3. Afraid what I find won’t work
4. Don’t like shake mixes
5. No Time
6. My husband (or wife) won’t approve
7. To Expensive
8. I don’t want to give up what I like to eat or drink
9. I can’t do without food
10. I don’t like exercising

Well, if any of the above 10 come close to describing you, I hate to tell you this, but, they are just excuses not to do something! Anything at all that prevents positive action from being taken to better your health, is just an excuse. You know, that “E” word that can get in the way of ANYTHING you need to do.
