7 Tips To Getting Back On Track With Your Weight Loss And Fitness Journey

If you’ve ever had a bad day and your healthy diet choices and exercise plan have gone out of the window, then we hear you. We know how it goes, we have a holiday or a celebration, the kids have been off for the summer, we get ill for a week or so, we have a stressful life event or stress at work and we lose all motivation. Before we know it, it’s been weeks since we’ve exercised and our healthy food options have all but disappeared. 

Losing motivation happens to all of us at times, but if it’s happened to you, then it doesn’t mean that it’s gone forever. You can get back on track, and we’re here to help you. Here’s our top tips for getting your motivation back…

  1. Tell yourself that falling off the track is no big deal. Yes, you might’ve helped the kids with their ice cream a few times over the summer holidays or indulged in long evenings drinking wine with friends, but that’s ok! Today is a new day and you can start again – it’s never too late. So, repeat after us – “Losing motivation is no big deal and I can get it back, TODAY!”
  2. On that note, don’t put things off until tomorrow, there’s no time like the present. And what better feeling than a virtuous one when you fall asleep tonight, knowing that you’re back on track to Own Your Goals?
  3. Fill up on protein to help resist the urge to snack. Protein keeps us fuller for longer which means that we won’t get as hungry between meals. Opt for lean chicken breast, fish and eggs, and if you’re vegetarian or vegan, go for tofu, quinoa, beans, pulses, nuts and seeds. 
  4. Take your lunch with you, rather than buying lunch in a hurry when you’re hungry and more likely to make unhealthy choices. Our delicious Chicken and Avocado Pittas and Carrot and Hummus Wraps are full of protein and essential vitamins and minerals and make an ideal healthy lunchbox. 
  5. Avoid the temptation to graze during the day by only eating between meals if you’re actually hungry. Sometimes, we can mistake thirst for hunger, so make sure you’ve always got a glass or bottle of water nearby. 
  6. Find a workout buddy so that you can help to motivate each other. Make a pact, that when one of you is wavering on exercise, the other one will boost you up and egg you on! 
  7. Exercise-wise, find a workout or routine that you love and keep with it. If dancing is your bag, work your way through our fun Dance Party classes. Is an up tempo boxercise class more your thing? Then Power Box and Tone is for you. The idea is to find exercises that you actually enjoy doing, because then you’re going to actually want to do them. Keep things exiting and mixed up and try stepping outside of your comfort zone by trying something completely new. You never know, you might love it!
