Welcome To The Blog

Hello everyone thank you so much for stopping by and lending your support to what I know is a worth while effort. I've started girlfriends losing weight to encourage all of you to not only focus on weight loss and overall great health, but to reach out and get other girlfriends to do the same thing.I have discovered over the years, that when you find a good accountability partner. You increase your chances of accomplishing your goals 100%. So girlfriends lets draw the line in the sand, let the buck stop here, and let's "make things happen" for all of us.I would hope that each of you will take time to share positive comments of encouragement,on the pictures and post that will be shared here.Remember we are all girlfriends whether we personally know each other or not. Together we stand, divided we all fall.I look forward to the pictures and stories of success that will be shared here, and I promise my success coaching that will be shared here will be in the spirit of excellence.

I wish everyone success

You Know You Need To Shape Up!!

Motivation is key to your weight loss success. Establish some goals that you can feel positive and happy about. Make sure you keep your exercise routine as fun as possible for quality results. Create a reward for following your plan that consists of less traditional, fun exercises. Give the tips below a chance and you will be able to start on the right foot.

If you have not tried working out with the music on, you need to try it. Music will help you pick up the pace. It will boost your energy, lift your spirits, and get those toes tapping to the rhythmic beat. It also helps put you in the right frame of mind and keeps you from thinking about how fatigued you are.

Round up a group of friends and start exercising! This is a time you can use to be social and discuss things you missed out on. Getting into a good long conversation with your friend allows you to forget you are exercising. Engaging with someone else while you exercise can make you forget that you are actually exercising. Involving your friends can make your exercise legitimately fun!

Workout-centered video games can be extremely helpful in getting you to concentrate on enjoying yourself, rather than fixating on the difficulty of the actual exercises you are performing. There are a lot of video games that can be used as fitness tools in a weight loss program. The obvious advantage of enjoying your workouts so much is that you will want to go longer and harder.

Wearing flattering exercise clothes is a great motivation tool. They come in many colors and can be fun to wear! Choose an outfit that will get you motivated to get out there and hit the gym.

Doing the same exercises everyday is a surefire way to quickly become bored and frustrated with your workout routine. If you view your exercise routine as drudgery, you are unlikely to remain committed to it. In order to keep yourself motivated, you may want to think about switching your exercise routine from time to time. You need to keep yourself interested or you will find less and less motivation to exercise. Even the smallest hiatus will make it tough to get motivated again.

It's a good idea to reward yourself whenever you accomplish one of your fitness goals. This is the perfect motivation to stick with things. Don't worry, it doesn't have to be expensive or elaborate. Maybe you'd like to reward yourself with a little bit of chocolate, or maybe buying a DVD you've been dying to see. The actual reward doesn't matter so much as its availability and the fact that it keeps your eyes on the prize. It is most important to keep going when you do not feel like doing anything.

An exercise routine does not need to be something you dread. There are so many different things you can do to have exercise be fun and not work. The tips in this article will make your workouts more entertaining.
