It takes dedicated hard work to drop a significant number of pounds. But afterwards it\u2019s incredibly easy (and frustrating!) to find those pounds creeping back on.<\/p>\n
Maintaining fat loss is certainly possible, however it does require that you remain vigilant with your healthy routine.<\/p>\n
Here are 5 secrets to maintaining your amazing body transformation for life.<\/strong> Think of these as your own personal lifestyle rules and stick with them at least 90% of the time to keep your body healthy and hot.<\/p>\n There is no place in your healthy lifestyle for mindless snacking. I\u2019m talking about a tub of popcorn at the movies or a bag of chips in front of the TV. All the calories ingested from mindless snacking have to end up somewhere\u2026and that somewhere is around your waist or on your thighs.<\/p>\n Snacks are fine when you are aware of how much you\u2019re eating in order to balance it with the rest of your meals for the day.<\/p>\n Have you heard the saying sitting is the new smoking? The idea is that a lifetime of sitting all-day-every-day is as harmful to your body as smoking. Think for a moment about how much of your day is spent sitting.<\/p>\n You wake up and sit down for breakfast. You sit on the drive to work. You take the elevator up. You sit for most of 8 hours at work. You take the elevator down. You sit on the drive home. You sit to eat dinner. You sit to watch TV.<\/p>\n That\u2019s quite a bit of time spent sitting! Now imagine if you consciously stood for some of this time each day and took the stairs instead of the elevator. Over weeks, and months, it really adds up in calories burned, muscles engaged, and overall fitness and health.<\/p>\n I might sound like a broken record about this one, but that\u2019s OK, I\u2019ll keep harping on this point until more people listen. Our bodies weren\u2019t designed to ingest large amounts of sugar on a daily basis. When you regularly take in excess sugar the results are always the same. You. Gain. Weight.<\/p>\n The tricky part is that sugar is all around us, so avoiding it takes real vigilance.<\/p>\n Start with your morning beverage of choice. Does it have sugar in it? Most of the beverages that are blended and brewed at coffee shops are simply vehicles for ingesting sugar. Find a beverage that you enjoy without any added sugar and stick with the rule of not drinking sugary beverages throughout your day.<\/p>\n Who says that dinner should be the biggest and heartiest meal of the day? Instead, focus on enjoying light dinners that are centered around protein and veggies and avoid starches and carbs in the evening.<\/p>\n Our recipe for Beet and Grapefruit Salad is a great example. Add a grilled chicken breast to a serving of this vibrant, fiber-filled salad and you have a nutritious dinner that\u2019s light and healthy.<\/p>\n How often do you brush your teeth? Do you sometimes take a few weeks or months off brushing your teeth? Um, no. That\u2019s gross. You brush your teeth everyday as an ongoing habit because you know that the benefits outweigh the slight inconvenience.<\/p>\n Can you see where I\u2019m going with this? \ud83d\ude42<\/p>\n Exercise only truly works when you do it as an ongoing habit because you know that the benefits outweigh the slight inconvenience. It\u2019s part of keeping you healthy. It\u2019s part of who you are.<\/p>\n I\u2019m here to make your daily exercise habit fun and effective.
