Losing weight, quitting smoking, going back to school and eating healthier. . .all at the same time? -
Can setting multiple goals help to motivate when one is successful or achieved? I-m going for an all or nothing kind of deal. I see them as one helps to benefit and motivate the other. Eating healthier leads to more energy for working out which leads to me wanting to stop smoking because of the lack of air, which overall gives me more energy and better health to focus on my school. Do you think I-m taking on to much or does this sound like a plan for success?I think I would take it slow and easy. It might be hard to maintain the motivation day after day, week after week and month after month.If you are the type of person that can get right back on the horse, good luck. Somehow try to keep the goals small enough so that each one is easy to accomplish. Best Wishes to you. Good Luck!depends on your will power. i would say going to the gym does help in distracting you from your nicotine cravings. toss all processed foods and drinks out. make sure to read all the food labels at the store. you might want to start having a day planner (or blackberry) and pre-planning recipes that you will prepare for your new eating lifestyle.
for quitting smoking, it helps to rearrange furniture in your house since it helps with the new adjustment of a life without ciggarettes. cleaning out your car to eliminate the smell of smoking including tossing out the car lighter and ashtray. subconsiously, if you see the same, you-ll fall into the same habit of smoking and other bad habits. i know i heard of people who swear that it works even though it sounds crazy.Are you a masochist? I would do the stopping smoking and the excercise together for sure. But you will want to eat/nibble if you-re not smoking, but the excercising should help by not putting on more weight.
I wish you every success. I quit smoking 6 weeks ago and feel great! It was tough though, but you have to stay positive and like I said excercising will help you out a lot.
Good Luck.This really depends on yourself - but you might end up backsliding on all of them if you fail at just one.
If for example you have a smoke, you might mentally give up on all of them and end up at square one again.
long days and pleasant nights.Rearrange your thought processes - You are going to be living Healthier and then take the steps to a new you. There are several steps you need to take and they are alll connected
Quit smoking and it will make you healthier, the same applies with the others mentioned. Going back to school too - as it increases your sense of accomplishment and you end up feeling better about yourself.
So get healthier lifestyle and start at it in a positive way, step by step and slowly increasing the changes For example walk 1 block today and in a few more days beef it up to 2 blocks and keep it up daily until you are doing 30 minutes of brick walking each day.
Smoking is another issue -you must believe that its the best for you, and if stopping cold turkey hasn-t worked in the past then look at Free groups and patches, gum or alternative habits. The First decision - never buy another pack of smokes
Wake up tomorrow and start the path to a new healthier and happier you. Keep an eye on the goals and a failure one day is simply that -1 failure and not a reason to give up!
