Don’t just get into shape

Get into your new life!!

If you have been frustrated with trying to lose weight and get in shape, I have the answer. It will take work: no surprise - if you want a different look, you have to put in the effort. The first thing is putting your head in the right frame of mind. Make the decision and do it.

Ok, let’s assume you have done that now. Here are the tools to achieving the body you want. Track your food intake! I know this may seem overwhelming at first, but counting your daily calories significantly increases your chances of weight loss success. Not only will it do that, but it will also educate you along the way. Teaching you how many calories are in different foods will greatly improve your knowledge and open up your mind. It will help you to see where you have gone wrong all these years.

Accurate calorie counting will require you to get a food scale (a cheap one on Amazon costs $15). At first, this will require a bit of effort, but once you see the progress you make - it will motivate you to continue. It will also help you when eating out at restaurants: you will know more or less how many ounces you are consuming based on the scale you are using at home.

Some 74% of people who are successful at losing weight track their food. So what do you have to lose? Just the weight, and it is very inexpensive. This food tracking will also help you monitor your macros protein carbs and fat.
