Well, here it is folks. March.  Month 3. Hopefully you’re still gun ho as you were 2 months ago. If not…keep reading. If you are….still…keep reading….

March is the HARDEST month of your weight loss journey. Why? Because the newness of the year has died down and all of the excitement of it has dissolved. It’s back to real life, daily grind, usual hustle and bustle and you can inevitably fall back into the same slump you were in around this time a year ago.

DON’T LET IT HAPPEN ANYMORE.

This month, I’m gonna do a series of videos dedicated to this very thing. We have to stick together to keep ourselves motivated. It’s not easy; trust me I know this but you have to keep going. You have to really buckle down and say enough is enough and I’m tired of being sick and tired; I don’t want to end up in the same place I do year after year after year. I wanna see what it’s like to accomplish THIS goal.

What I don’t think alot of us realize is weight loss requires just as much dedication that you put towards everything else you do in life be it school, career, family…or whatever. You just truly have to take some time to take care of you and make sure you handle your business well. It requires just as much determination, diligence, and don’t miss this…patience. You didn’t get you 4yr degree in a month and a half and you don’t climb up the corporate ladder in the first week of being there. Make sure you give yourself all the time you need to make things happen.

Most importantly, don’t wait. Don’t waste another minute contemplating on what you think you should do. It’s its the middle of the week…start…the middle of the day..start. I’m gonna let you in on a little secret. I remember trying to lose weight when I was younger; I worked out twice a day between 3:30-6:00pm and I had great results…and it started on a Thursday. I’d just decided I was going to do better and did so and kept it going.

Trust me, I know all about the allure of beginning at the beginning, but I’m  also well aware of the reality that none of that matters if you’re not in the right position to move forward. No matter the million steps you have to take to get to where you want to go, it all starts with one and continues with the rest. Just keep going. Also, you don’t have to keep starting over. That will mentally drain you. If you’ve started and stopped, picked up where you left off. If you have gained all your weight back then yes you do have to start over and there should come a time when you get absolutely tired of that. Again, You have to make it up in your mind that you’re sick and tired of being sick and tired. You already know what it feels like on this side of the journey, take the time to find out what it’s like on the other side of accomplishment. It will be a release of physical and mental  weight being lifted from your shoulders. Once you’ve accomplished big things; your confidence in your own abilities will soar and you’ll find yourself asking “What else can I accomplish” It’s a great feeling, but it starts with one step.

Make that step today if you haven’t; if you have…keep steppin’.
