Top 5 Tips for Staying On Track This Summer

BBQ's, Parties, and Vacations, OH MY!

It's summertime, the kids are home, it's chaos, it's fun, it's travel, it's parties, it's food, it's cocktails, it's distractions, it's stress, it's all over the place! A lot of us struggle to stay on track with our health, fitness, and wellness goals in the summertime in large part because the routines that kept us on track the rest of the year don't work (or don't exist!) in the summertime.

This really only becomes a problem if we don't acknowledge that it's different and adjust. It's like we keep trying to fit the square peg (old routines) into the round hole (summertime) and then get frustrated and give up when it doesn't work.

I've noticed there's seems to be 2 types in the summertime (and I've been both!):

type 1: "It's never too late to get that summer bod!" - this person starts some kind of crazy restrictive diet plan or exercise program to drop weight fast. But it's summertime and they don't stick to it very long because it's super hard OR they lose the weight but regain it quickly because their quick weight loss was unsustainable and then begins the shame spiral about what a failure they are . . . again.

type 2: "F-it, I can't stick to anything over the summer, I'm not even going to try" - this type gives up on their health, wellness, and fitness goals, and decides to pick it back up in the fall when the kids go back to school and we're back on a routine. And thus continues the yo-yo diet cycle.

May I propose to you that there's some middle ground here? A place where you can have your cake AND eat it too, enjoy your summer AND stay on track, live your life AND still lose weight. In fact this middle ground is where I live all year round and it's what I teach in the Healthy Mind Healthy Body Program. Listen up to this episode for my top 5 tips for staying on track this summer so you can have fun and keep moving forward!

Ditch the Diets and Finally Make Peace with Food

If you struggle with yo-yo dieting then you know how hard it is to make any real lasting change. Unfortunately most women get stuck in the belief that being on a diet is the only way to lose weight and get healthy, and when they inevitably fail they’ve destroyed their self esteem, destroyed their relationship with food, and get stuck in a guilt/shame spiral that starts the whole process over again.

If you don’t understand how reprogram your mind that is sabotaging you, and reprogram your body for health, you’ll never make lasting progress.

That’s why I created the Healthy Mind, Healthy Body Program; to teach you how to make a real, lasting transformation in your Mind AND Body.
