We’re going to take a wild guess and say that you’ve tried to lose weight before; you didn’t get the results you wanted; and you tried many times, with the same lack of results.
If we’re right, it’s the reason we titled this article “Your Weight Management Survival Guide”. Weight loss and managing your weight are not easy. It’s an ongoing journey and you haven’t been able to ‘survive’ all the way through yet. We know, we’ve been down this road too.
And we found a way to survive it and thrive!
How to Survive & Thrive on Your Weight Loss Journey
Just to be clear, this article isn’t going to offer tips, suggestions, exercises, diets or anything else specific to losing weight. Instead, it will outline how to prepare for and get through your weight loss journey.
The first step is to transform your thinking about how to lose weight. After all, the old thinking hasn’t worked yet.
Your main focus shouldn’t be on losing weight in a certain amount of time, having a ‘target’ weight, and making big changes to get you there according to schedule. Instead, focus on renewing your life with a commitment to living it at a healthier weight. With that single action, you position yourself to take the steps needed to survive your weight management journey.
Tailored to You
Every step along the way must be made according to your preferences, needs and goals. “Off-the-shelf” diets are made to appeal to everyone, so they rarely work for anyone. You need to start and follow a weight management program that is tailored to you. One with foods, supplements and guidance that are focused on your mental and physical wellbeing as much as anything else.
Nutritional Maintenance
This is a key step missing from most weight loss programs. Lowering your weight can be stressful on your body. It needs energy and strength to help you succeed. But many diets upset your nutritional balance to the point of putting your body under even more stress. Failure is not far behind. But, with the right support for a new, healthier, balanced diet, with natural herbal nutrition supplements, you keep yourself on track for success.
Support, Guidance & Motivation
You know how difficult losing weight can be. You’re unsure of the best way for you to lose weight. You’re worried about what happens when you feel like you just can’t continue. So why are you going to try to do this completely alone? Give yourself the support you need. A nutrition counsellor has the training and experience to help you make the right choices, create a program personalized just for you, and be the cheerleader you need to get over the humps and stay motivated.
The nutrition counsellors at your local Herbal One Centre are ready to create a tailored weight management program just for you.
