Keep A Fitness Log

Log­ging your work­outs can be moti­va­tional because you can see your work accu­mu­late and your efforts start to add up. If you miss one, just look back and see all the work­outs you that you did do and know that you are still ahead of the game!

Also if you feel like crap or can only do 20 min­utes, at least it’s in the record books! It always makes me happy when I don’t have to write a big fat ZERO in my jour­nal. Every li­tle bit counts!

Start A Food Journal

Keep­ing track of every­thing you eat, includ­ing the serv­ing size, assures that you’re not con­sum­ing too many or too few calo­ries. It also makes you con­scious of “mind­less eat­ing or snack­ing” if every time you grab a chip you have to log it!
