Get on Track with Your Weight in 5 Easy Steps
Get on Track with Your Weight in 5 Easy Steps

Do you ever find yourself wishing you could “get back on track?”
I see a common theme among women that aren’t living like they want to in terms of eating the right foods or taking care of their wellness.
However, with that being said, I also notice that they compare what they do (don’t do) to a diet they were on. Comparing their eating habits to a diet makes them feel worse about their current situation.
Diets aren’t meant to teach you how to love yourself through every phase of life, or to give yourself a break when you eat something you want, like cake or ice cream.
So how do you avoid this food prison and feeling like you’re not eating right?
Simple! I have a few tips that can help you get back to being aware of your healthy habits so it doesn’t feel like a chore or an insurmountable task (aka diet).
Here are some steps you can take to get back on track
1. Decide what it is you want to change.
Example drink more water, move your body, pack a lunch, eat breakfast, cook at home, etc.
2. Decide how you’re going to do it.
Example: I’m going to make my lunch in the evenings or I’m going to wake up 20 minutes early to eat breakfast
3. Decide how often you want to do it.
Example: I’m going to drink 60 oz of water 3 days a week or I’m going to pack my lunch 3 days a week
4. Start! Don’t wait until the stars align. Start now.
5. Track your progress and adjust as needed.
Example: write notes about your new habit in a journal, and after a week reflect on how it went and what you want to adjust
If you want help with this process, I help my clients through this all the time. Taking one step at a time versus going all in on a diet is the best way to stay consistent, lose weight, and enjoy your life.
