Weight Loss Tips/Help: Dr. Oz Just 10 Pounds Reminder
Jack Sh*t Pie ChartSo, my post for today was going to be short & simple about what it takes to lose weight, get fit & all that stuff! It still is going to be short (well, semi short) & sweet but I added the above chart to it. More on that below.
So what does it take to lose weight, get healthier, get fit, feel better, be able to do more, be able to play more with your kids.. I could go on & on!
Here it is: YOU CAN USE WHATEVER PROGRAM YOU FIND WORKS BEST FOR YOU IN TERMS OF FOOD, EXERCISE, PLAY ETC. But whatever it is, it is GOING TO TAKE HARD HARD WORK, DEDICATION, PATIENCE, CONSISTENCY & A COMMITMENT TO THAT ALONG WITH EATING RIGHT. FOOD IS AT LEAST 75% OF THE EQUATION!
Some people want to give up after 2 weeks or 1 month or 3 months because it is just too hard. They don't want to exercise, they don't want to change their eating habits & LIFESTYLE because it is just "too hard". Well, it is hard BUT IT IS WORTH IT! If it were easy, we all would be fit & healthy!
Honestly, from a lady that is hitting 53 soon, you have to continue to work at it long term & things will change & you may & most likely will have to work harder as you age due to hormone changes - both women & men! THIS IS THE WAY IT IS - Jody, the "BM" is talking to you today!
You can click on the link by the pie cart or HERE to see all the amazing excuses Jack Sh*t wrote about, tongue in cheek... BUT, you know what, people use any excuse under the sun & I am sure some of those in his chart!
As Jule's (Big Girl Bombshell) son wrote to her: As one of my coaches told me “Excuses are like buttholes, everyone has em and they all STINK!”
I know I said short BUT I saw this great post from Dr. J about perseveration. You have to read his post to get the definition. READ THE WHOLE POST TO GET THE FULL BENEFIT! Yes, I know we all like to skim thru longer posts but read this through to get the full message!
OK, I know I may get pro's & cons to this post so comment away!!!
PS: Don't forget about Dr. Oz & Just 10 Pounds!
PPS: Steve is having a Hot 100 Challenge .. goes thru year end. That might help motivate you!
PPPS: Don't forget about my ab-roller and exercise bands GIVEAWAY too!








Oh I have used some of Jack's excuses a time or two. That Sample Lady, she has an agenda and it is not my health let me tell you!
Ok, off to read Dr J...

I can't tell you how many times someone will ask, "how do I get fit" then when I point out exactly what you did above-a bit of hard work, dedication and EAT RIGHT-the excuses just start rollling out of the mouth. Some people will never get it...it's all about making changes for life-and putting in the effort. Cheers!

Yes, Jules.. applying it is the hard part but so worth it!

How can anyone disagree with this? You have said it in simple terms and as much as some may wish there was an easier way, there just isn't.

Karen, don't we all wish it were easier.. but not doing it, that is not OK for me....

Every little thing we put in our mouth counts! People like to conveniently leave out those little bites...

I think a lot of people give up because they try to do too much all at once at first. They totally clean up their diet to the extreme and then will go out and try to run 5 miles having never run before. Well, of course it is too hard for them and they quit. Small changes grow to big changes.
