The Journey Is the Reward

What are your New Year’s resolutions? Do you have plan for how to achieve them?

“In order to keep a good resolution, you need a plan”, knows Birgit Funfack, co-founder of Metabolic Balance. The formulation of personal goals should be well thought out and set for a realistic period. To see an unfeasible project fail makes all motivation disappear. It is better to follow reasonable paths. ” Wanting to lose 30 pounds in one year is realistic and therefore sustainable. However, if you want to make it in two weeks, you usually fall back into old eating habits after the first few days. In order to achieve one large goal try to include small goals along the way to help keep you motivated and on track! A sensible plan as well as faith in oneself are the keys to successfully reach the goals of a good resolution.

Realistic Resolution

You’ve decided on some fab New Year resolutions for 2020. No more smoking, you’re going to bed earlier, you’re eating better and you’re definitely going to the gym …

Resolutions are great in the beginning when we’re determined and motivated. We may actually keep some of them going, while others soon disappear like footprints in the sand. Why is that? “In order to keep a good resolution, you need a plan” Birgit Funfack, co-founder of Metabolic Balance advises. “Any goal, whatever it is, needs to be well thought through and planned. But most importantly it needs to be realistic with a doable time frame. There is nothing more demotivating than to start something that’s doomed to failure because of bad planning. Real long-term success comes from getting on the right and most importantly, realistic path.”

“It’s realistic to want to lose 65 lbs (30 kg) in 12 months and because you’ve given yourself this time frame it’s so much easier to stay truly motivated until you get to your goal. If you were to say that you’re going to lose it in 2 months than that’s just not going to happen is it? … and, thus, when it doesn’t happen you can easily fall back into old eating habits.” 

Steady healthy weight reduction is the key! … with the right goal, the right plan, the right time frame and the right support, you know you can stick to it and keep that momentum going for as long as you need to reach your goal.
