Alissa<\/strong><\/em>:\u00a0 I would have to say that one of my biggest problems over the years with trying to lose weight has been staying consistent. \u00a0I would try a diet \/ exercise program for maybe a month or two then decide it wasn’t working and switch to something else. \u00a0Of course, in between switching “diets,” I would take a cheat week here or there. \u00a0I was never getting the results I truly wanted–\u00a0 I was far too impatient. It wasn’t until about 5 months ago that I actually decided that no matter the results I wouldn’t give up on my healthy lifestyle.<\/p>\n

I have had to change things up here and there, but I am primarily consistent. \u00a0I had hernia repair surgery last October and was bedridden for about a month afterward. \u00a0During this time I gained 10 pounds, and I was determined to lose it. \u00a0It has been slow, but steady progress. \u00a0 It has taken 5 months, but I have lost that 10 pounds;\u00a0 And I don’t plan on every going back to an unhealthy lifestyle. \u00a0I love knowing exactly what I will be eating every day, and knowing exactly what I am putting in my body. \u00a0I feel so much healthier and happier!\u00a0 My “small” jeans fit again, which is incredible!<\/p>\n

It can be hard to feel like your efforts are doing you no good;\u00a0 It can be hard watching everyone you know eating whatever they want and enjoying it. . .\u00a0 But after you choose to make a lifestyle change, and determine to stay with it no matter what, you will see and feel the benefits. \u00a0You will probably fall off the wagon a few times, and you know what, that is just fine. \u00a0As long as you get right back on. \u00a0In the near future I will discuss the importance of cheat days. . .\u00a0 Till then, be well!<\/p>\n

Gabriel<\/strong><\/em>:\u00a0 Also, (While slightly on subject) keep in mind, it’s not a “cheat day” if you do it every day, or often.\u00a0 The less frequently you “cheat,” the better your results, and the more a “cheat day” actually means.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
