2) Whether you hope to lose 20 pounds or run a mini marathon, you can if you think you can! Set yourself up for morale building victories by establishing short-term goals and rewarding yourself as you reach your milestones.

3) Vary your workouts occasionally by trying different exercises or sports. Enjoy playing a variety of different sports! Choose different exercise routines and gradually build upon your exercise time and intensity. Give your body a variety of challenging thrills and make it fun! Your fitness efforts will seem much easier if you’re having fun. Enjoy your journey to better health and fitness!

4) Bring your long term goal goals to life through visualization. Imagine how you’ll feel slipping into that slinky new dress or walking confidently in a hot little bikini at your favorite beach.

5) Take pictures every week or so and document your progress! After just a few months you’ll most likely be amazed at your progress.
