Do you still weigh yourself?

~ SA Otey

IMG_2272Don’t ever weigh yourself on January 2nd. To quote Yoda, “Only pain you will find”. Weight is a terrible measurement of health. What I mean is, don’t let the scale dictate how you should feel about yourself.  You should go about how your clothes fit. If you want to get technical then go by body fat percentage. Buy yourself some fancy fat pinchers if you must know the details. Don’t go by BMI because you can be obese even if you are an elite athlete bodybuilding freak of nature.

I started a new way of eating a few years ago and I lost weight quickly at first but then the next year I lost no weight at all. Once you get comfortable with your clothes, you should shop for some new ones and donate the old ones. If you buy quality threads you can also sell them on eBay.

New Year, New You? Again?

~ SA Otey

Will you succeed at your New Year’s resolutions? Probably not, if you set your goals too high. I’ve started making small changes in everything I do. Small goals, small victories. Small goals take the stress out of accomplishing that goal. If you want to lose 100 pounds, try losing 10 first. If you’re going to fix your road rage problem, try only punching the steering wheel a few times a day rather than several. You can’t just quit that behavior overnight. Changing your habits will lead to lasting results.

Of course, if you don’t set any goals it will be hard to let yourself down. Most people will give up around February, they may even make it until March. The micro resolution will provide much more satisfaction and get you where you need to be, slower, but steady.
