Congratulations on making it through Day One of our Beachbody Challenge! By the posts on the Facebook group, it looks like most of you are kicking ASS and staying on track with food and getting the workout(s) in. I'm psyched!
I want to talk about goals. I had intended to post this talk as a video in the group, but instead, I posted about stress and its effect on our bodies. Case in point, my back is out. And it had nothing to do with my workout or pushing myself beyond my skill level. It has everything to do with the amount of stress in my life and how I carry that stress. I'm resting today and hoping tomorrow I can do some light Yoga to re-center myself and focus on the WHY instead of the NOW.
Anyway! Goals!
Someone once told me that in order to gain confidence, we have to meet success. With that in mind, I want you think about your goals for this challenge and perhaps re-word them a bit so that they become 100% dialed in and achievable.
Here are some examples:
1) I want to wear my favorite jeans without them digging into my sides.
2) I want to get dressed in something other than yoga pants and a T-shirt on the weekends because I'm worth that effort.
3) I want to complete this 21-Day Challenge. I signed up for it because I need a change and I'm not going to quit.
4) I want to feel better about what I'm putting into my body.
5) I'm going to workout every single day no matter what. Maybe it's not one of the DVD's that came with my program. Maybe it means I go for a 30-minute walk around the neighborhood or I drop in on a local Yoga class or hit up Zumba with a friend. Whatever it is, I'm going to move for 30-minutes a day.
Switch the focus away from how you look and more to how you feel. Switch the mindset from "I can't eat that" to "I choose not to eat that". Switch the focus away from your weight and more to your WHY.
So! NOW tell me your goals for this Challenge. GO.
