Why do you lose your motivation?

5 Minutes to Fitness+ Club coming soon.

Everything happens for a reason, EVERYTHING!

Our job is to find out the reason. Most of us get motivated when we hit rock bottom (like when our pants become impossible to button without a crowbar). But why do we lose our motivation? Here’s one main reason:

We are following the same patterns we’ve always followed. We starve/diet and force ourselves to get to the gym, lose some weight and then justify the cheeseburger, fries and beer as our reward. Think about how ridiculous that is. This is how to break the pattern:

  • Identify when you are about to go off the wagon.
  • Replace, “You deserve it”, with, “I must break this pattern and find compelling reasons to succeed”.
  • Get a health coach or a mentor- we need accountability!
  • Think about what you love most and eat great food and train your body to get those things.
  • Stop obsessing about weight. That hasn’t helped in the past and won’t help now.

Give yourself credit for all the good things you are doing and smile more. You will succeed. It must happen for you! And if you don’t believe that then we have to talk :-)
