– How much water? If your urine is pale you are probably drinking enough. If it is more colored then you need to drink more.
– The behavior core:
Basics of behaver change.
– Every positive change in your life begins with a clean, unequivocal decision that you are going to either do something or stop doing something.
– The three cs in life choice, chance, change. You must take the chance. If you want anything in life to change.
– Life will only change when you become more committed to your dreams than you are to your comfort zone.
– If you are not committed it will never stick.
– Weight loss is totally in your brain.
– We need to have commitments to ourselves and how we as individuals can succeed and not just to others or job.
– Some people feel overwhelmed by thinking of forever but just think of dedicated to your goals for the week.
– Portion control is a key component to success. A piece of cake should be smaller.
– We have to stay diligent to maintain our goals or we return to old habits and old problems.
– Misconceptions about change:
– Relying on that willpower alone will help you achieve a lifestyle change. It can be a roll but more is needed.
– Attempting giant leaps begins with small steps; otherwise, we can feel overwhelmed.
