Doesn’t Mean You’re Healthy

Posted by on Mar 12, 2012 in Skinny Tips & Quotes | Comments Off on Doesn’t Mean You’re Healthy

I know a lot of people that eat mainly junk food, drink soda/alcohol, never exercise, and look absolutely fabulous. Before you get too jealous, just know that it doesn’t mean everything is working in tip-top shape on the inside. “Just because you’re not sick doesn’t mean you’re healthy”  ~Author Unknown You can easily change the quote to “just because you’re not overweight…” We all know that what is going on in the inside will always manifest itself on the outside… eventually. Do what you can to eat healthy, exercise, rest well, and reduce the stress in your life. Taking good care of your overall health is something you will never regret.

Today Is Always The Perfect Day To Start

Posted by on Aug 27, 2011 in Skinny Tips & Quotes | Comments Off on Today Is Always The Perfect Day To Start

Too many “diets” and “new ways of life” start on Monday. If you have resolved to start exercising on a Wednesday, why wait until the following Monday to get started? Start now! Here’s an excellent quote I came across this last week, and it should serve as a reminder to all of you who wait until Monday to start making positive changes in your life. “A year from now you will wish you had started today” – Karen Lamb If you need to start exercising or eat healthy, don’t wait until tomorrow. You have the ability to start right now. Start today, and continue on for the rest of your life.  Don’t live your life continually thinking “I’ll start tomorrow” or “I’ll start someday…when I’m ready” or “on Monday”. If you continue thinking like this, chances are, you will...

Are you Committed?

Posted by on Jul 21, 2011 in Skinny Tips & Quotes | Comments Off on Are you Committed?

“Commitment leads to action. Action brings your dream closer.” – Marcia Wieder I thought that this was such a great quote. So many people want to change their lives for the better, yet they aren’t willing to commit to themselves and really make it happen. Unfortunately, you are not likley to reach your weight loss goals (for example)  in just two weeks. It takes time. Fortunately, the time and effort you put towards your health are going to be worth it in the end. Focus on the end goal and you will ultimately reach your goals. Fall back a couple of steps?  That’s OK. That’s life! Just get yourself back on track sooner rather than later and keep moving forward. Tell me what you have done to commit to yourself and reach your goals!  Feel free to follow us,...

Posted by on Aug 9, 2010 in Skinny Tips & Quotes | 3 comments

A lot of people wonder why I am even trying to be healthier.  People will actually wonder why I am making a conscious effort to change some bad eating habits of mine. Hey, I am not perfect with my eating and exercising habits.  I am not claiming to be perfect, but I DO want to try my hardest to improve my overall Health.  My question to those who question my motives is “Why not?” There really isn’t anything to lose by improving your health, except for maybe a couple of things you just don’t want anyways. “Living a healthy lifestyle will only deprive you of poor health, lethargy, and fat.” -Jill Johnson I want to be deprived of Poor Health, Lethargy, and excess Fat!
