This week we’re talking about creating meaningful and sustainable change through the power of small adjustments.

Our biggest obstacles to losing weight and gaining health are the ones we have that stop us even getting started.

There’s always seems to be something in our way, something that “When I get past this, then I will have time to focus on me”.

Every year is full of celebrations, challenges and changes, all culminating at the end of the year with the daddy of all stresses, Christmas.

That’s why New Year’s Resolutions are so popular right; this is the time when we think we can take a minute to focus on ourselves before the cycle starts again.

But Why Do We Think We Have To Wait?

Because unless you’re experiencing one of those rare moments where the switch in our mind is triggered and turned “on” – you know that switch, the one that propels us into action like we just sat on a thumb tack? The one that gives us...

The beliefs we hold about ourselves shape the way we feel about ourselves and they can be some of our biggest obstacles to weight loss that we have to overcome. But how do you know what your real beliefs are and what can you do today to change them?

This week we’re talking about simplicity. 

A friend of mine was walking one of the Camino trails in Spain and realised she’d packed way too much in her backpack. After many days and walking over 100kms struggling with all the extra weight, she finally asked herself an insightful question; “Where else in life am I carrying too much?” 

I totally related to her story; I had 25 years struggling with excess weight, now that was cumbersome. 

Not just on my body but, on my mind, the constant thinking about it exhausted me.  

From the minute I got up to the minute I went to bed, there was never any peace, and it seeped into every area of my life. 

The constant questioning about why couldn’t I get rid of the fat? Why did I have this burden, and why oh why couldn’t I stop eating so I could relieve myself of the weight? 

Not to mention the endless thoughts about food: 

What can I eat? What...

What’s your plan for the next 12 months? What’s life going to look like come December 31st of this year? Or for that matter, what’s life going to look like come December 31st of every year after that?

This week I’m talking about how short-sighted we are and what we can do about it.

Weight loss New Year’s resolutions are a dime a dozen, everyone has one but it’s a rarity to find someone who actually has a plan in place for achieving it.

Achieving goals takes commitment, planning, focused attention, dedication and determination.

That all sounds like hard work, right? That’s because it is.

I’m sure you’ve heard the old saying that if you fail to plan, then you’re planning to fail.

Well, the reality is, most people who make a weight loss plan, who take the time to sit and etch out the steps they need to take to reach their goal successfully, are all planning to fail as well.

Over 25 years of dieting, I can...

This week I'm talking about how easy it is to change your health and fitness with just one small 2 min adjustment to how you think about exercise.

Well, it's another New Years Eve on the horizon and opportunity to make a New Years Resolution that you can stick to using the power of marginal gains.

We think that getting regular exercise that makes a difference to our health has to be big blocks of time spent at the gym several days a week.

I remember when I decided that that really didn't work for me - at all!

So I made my own rules up about how and what exercise I would focus on.

Lucky for me, I do love exercise, but I get bored easy and I really didn't like having to go to the gym. I needed something that would fit into my hectic life and make me happy.

So I came up with my two-minute rule. I know, two minutes is nothing right? And people often say to me, "Well, two minutes isn't going to make you skinny is it?!"

But I disagree.

When I decided on my 2 minute rule, I was...

Losing weight takes a long time.

The more weight we have to lose the longer it’s going to take and it’s not a one-time event either is it?

We have to then overcome the weight loss obstacle of habit relapse by maintaining our new healthy habits for life.

So the question is always: do we have the gritty mindset that it takes to change our health and our life and drop however many kilos we need to drop?

It all sounds like bloomin’ hard work doesn’t it?

We want to lose weight so we can have a life, not chain ourselves to some kind of grind stone.

So how do we develop the gritty mindset, feel relaxed and enjoy your new lifestyle choices?
