F2M2

Each new school year brings an opportunity for a fresh start.  Buying school supplies and getting organized before the chaos hits always feels great!  It's the calm before the storm of millions of papers start flying around, the assignments start piling up, talk of pop quizzes, school activities and sports schedules take over.  It's before "THIS year, I'm going to get ahead of the game" falls through and you find yourself playing catch up.
     Don't get caught in this whirlwind of chaos - especially when that means leaving yourself behind.  The end of summer brings a craziness all its own and it's time to get back on track!!!  If you've missed the gym and have been looking over the not-so-good calories, then get ahead of the game - and STAY on top of it.  Each day, remind yourself of your priorities - your family, of course, and YOU - your health.  Because we all know if you fall apart, so will everything else.  Have a daily mantra, repeat it to yourself first thing in the morning and follow through.  If you have set aside that calorie counter, it's time to dust it off, reset it, and put it back to use - you may not need it forever, but use it to help keep you honest and on the right nutritional path.  I know you can do it!!!
     We all have lives and hectic schedules, if you convince yourself that you're too busy now, then you've just made it that much harder on you AND your body.  When you start thinking about your day and begin feeling overwhelmed, know that you are not alone . . . and you won't be alone at the gym either!  There are plenty of other people with their own challenges - some bigger and some smaller than yours - but they are there, and you should be there too!  Make it a priority in your life.  Make an appointment with the gym and healthy eating habits and KEEP IT!  See you soon, I'll be expecting you.

Have a great week...:))
