Have you ever heard of the "CRAB" Theory. This is when crabs are in a bucket all together and when one of them tries to climb up to get out of the bucket, the other crabs will pull them back down. This is a true story.....
Life can be like that too. When you are starting your "Health" journey or stepping out from what has been the norm, either in your lifestyle or career or any area of your life, you will have the people around you try to pull you back into the norm. This is usually the people that love you and support you or that you think would really be your cheerleaders. They do not like the fact that you are becoming healthier then they are or more successful then they are and they not knowing and sometime knowingly will try to pull you back in.
Keep an eye out for this sabotage and don't play into it. It is OK to step out of the box and to climb out of the bucket to move on to bigger and better things. Have a great weekend..

Well it is that time of the year AGAIN, New Years RESOLUTIONS!!! Many people look at their health at this time of the year. If you vow to LOOSE WEIGHT this year, these ideas might help your weight loss efforts. They may seem simple but they truly can make a difference in your hitting your fitness or weight loss goals.
• Set your GOALS! - Something that is specific, realistic & measurable. This is a crucial step for your success.
• Keep a food journal - We all seem to be more aware of what we are putting in our mouth if we have to write it down.
• Grocery shop with a list - do not shop when you are hungry. Try and stay on the outside lanes as much as possible.
• Eat from a smaller plate - this will help you if you like to see your plate full.
• Put your utensil down & take a drink after every bite - It takes about 20 minutes for your brain to register that you are fed, so this will slow your eating up and you will feel more satisfied with less food.
• Exercise more - get yourself a pedometer. Your first goal should be to get in 10,000 steps a day or do something fun like a Fitness Boot Camp class.
We hope these ideas help you!! Have a Happy New Year!!
