Itt’s no secret that I’ve been wanting to lose weight and I’ve done many things to try and achieve that. The one thing I knew I needed to do was get a plan in action, set goals & rewards for reaching said goals. I’ve always been a planner; I like planning ahead and knowing what is going on for the future. I’m a visual person; I like being able to see in front of me what I want to accomplish that week and or monthly goals.
I love this planner from Me and My Big Ideas, especially since it’s all about fitness. You plan your day out by meals, snacks and what you have planned for working out. You start at whatever month you want, and week by week you plan out exactly what your meals are. If you follow any certain program, you can make sure you meet your caloric intake and not duplicate the meals. Therefore, you’re not getting tired with what you’re eating which is my favorite part. It’s also great if you’re on a budget and want to plan your meals out for the week without over buying.
I found out that Smoothie King, is all about helping you get in shape with their Change a Meal Challenge. They have over 20 delicious Meal Replacement Smoothies, all under 400 calories. They also give great tips that everyone can implement easily; add 30 minutes of exercise a day, make sensible choices for your meals, replace one meal a day with a Meal Replacement Smoothie. I’ve set a goal each week, to go to the gym and run at least 5 times a week each, walking Thor at least 6 times a week (hopefully more), and just MOVE. In the winter it’s much easier to make excuses to hit the snooze button, not run outside, and not follow your training program. Summer bodies and running PR’s are made in the cold winter months. That’s all 100% true, I’ve witnessed countless friends hit major PR’s from their dedication over the cold winter months.
Staying on track isn’t always easy (trust me this I know 100%), but that’s why with planning, setting smaller goals that go towards a larger goal it can be accomplished. I’ve set small goals, and hit a huge goal once before and I know it can be done once again. Being able to replace a meal from Smoothie King, will help me keep on track for the caloric intake I am aiming for I am sure of it. They have so many different flavors, LTO- Dark Chocolate Cherry and Lean1™ Chocolate are my top favorite to grab when I head there.
