How to Reach a Healthy Weight

March 2012

Aug 2012

After years of trying to drop the extra pounds I gained throughout college, I experimented with many different ways to lose weight.  I tried everything! After many trials and failures, I finally figured it out. My priority was totally off! Getting skinny to look skinny will not get you any where. Instead, you will be living a life constantly revolved thinking about your image. I realized living a healthy lifestyle of moderation and balance is the right way to go! Funny enough, as soon as I changed my priorities and started focusing on taking care of my body, I lost weight! I know how tough it is battling an unhealthy lifestyle so I want to help! Over the next 6 weeks focusing on the 3 key parts below, I will share with you how to live a healthier balanced life. At the end of The Healthy Babe Weight Journey, you will definitely be on your way to starting the New Year as a Healthy Babe!

The Healthy Babe Weight Journey 

Part 1: Fuel your body.

 - Eat 5-6 times a day, around every 3 hours

 - Eat a little bit of everything from each food group 

 - Pay attention to portion size instead of counting calories

 - Consume, at most, 2 sweets or sugary/alcoholic drinks a week 

 - Log what you eat and drink every day

 - Drink 8-10 cups of water a day

Part 2: Work your body. 

 - Do 30 min strength training 4 times a week.

 - Do 30 min cardio training 4-5 times a week. 

 - Do 1 hour of yoga at least once a week.

 Part 3: Love your body. 

 - Write down your goals. 

 - Write in a journal every morning reminding yourself why you are doing this. 

 - Write in your journal before you go to bed, taking note of your days accomplishments    

    and if any, slip ups of the day.



Now is the time to turn your life around and start living the healthy life you  have always wanted. I know you can do it! 

Love,
