“SUCCESS DOESN’T KNOW ABOUT COLD OR TIRED (OR HOT) IT JUST KNOWS IF YOU SHOWED UP” TRUE! Everyone can have a reason not to exercise, but success can only be achieved without those excuses. I see my clients overcome reasons not to train everyday. A variety of reasons that have validity, but we can often find ways around those to train safely.

🏋️‍♂️There are many ways to improve your fitness & ultimately your health so if you think you can’t then think again as that excuse is invalid in almost every instance. Don’t think GOLD medal but think small steps on the path to greater health!

🍳Portions was the topic this week. I’ll admit when my children were young & I was at home with them I’d easily eat the same as my husband. Yet he worked long hours doing physical work. This realisation that I was eating two burgers to his two burgers was a turning point. I also now often save some of my dinner for my lunch as leftovers & this has also been a turning point. Prior to this realisation I’d probably eat the leftovers so not to throw them out. Therefore eating 1 1/2 dinners. I now save them for lunch which is a much better solutions & my lunch has become a favourite meal.

🍠Portions are not a one size fits all. How much we eat relates to many factors - age, sex, job, lifestyle, hormones, thyroid, to name a few. To read more about portions click on this link https://www.drlibby.com/health-wellbeing/hunger-vs-appetite-whats-the-difference/
