Are you Cheating yourself?

Have you skipped your workout and decided to stay home to watch TV... for the third time this week. It’s okay because nobody’s watching you or pushing you out of your comfort zone. When you’re the only person you are accountable to for your actions – or lack thereof – you’re walking in dangerous territory.  Because it’s easy not to feel guilty about skipping a workout if nobody is there to chastise you. And when you fall off the workout wagon completely, who’s going to be there to point finger? Nobody is! 

You may be getting away with being lazy now, but an unhealthy lifestyle will catch up with you sooner rather than later. And when it does, because it will, you’ll wish you hadn’t plopped down on the couch with the TV remote in hand every night. Full knowing you could of at least worked out for one of those given TV watching hours. It's hard to look back and see that it would of been so easy to give that time up, knowing what would of resulted in you being fit, happy and healthy.

 

If you don’t have someone who can help reinforce your healthy lifestyle needs, it’s up to you to learn a little self-discipline. But what if you don’t feel like exercising today? Think about the implications laziness will bring on you tomorrow. Chances are you will be more lazy tomorrow and the day after that because you've let that comfort slip in where it don't belong...On you're workout day!You’re not outsmarting anyone when you cheat yourself out of the healthy body you deserve. You’re just delaying the healthy rewards that are rightfully yours if only you’d practice some self-discipline now. Yes, it’s difficult to overcome the day to day temptations, but it’s also so very worth it 

Each time you are tempted to cheat on your diet or skip a few workouts, remind yourself that the only person you are hurting is you. After all, cheaters never prosper. Most of all you'll never get to live in that fit, sexy, healthy body you so deserve to enjoy!

Being Fit isn't really a team sport! You can have partners, yet you're ultimately accountable for doing the work! So #DotheWork =)
