Last month, I joined a three-month weight management program. The New-U Wellness program includes three one-on-one health coaching sessions, two small group training exercise sessions per week, and a fitness assessment at the beginning and end of the program.
A couple of weeks ago, I had my first one-on-one health coaching session and here’s what I learned. I mean, I already knew these tips, but it’s always good to have someone help you be more accountable for your own health.
- Eat a protein with every meal.
- Drink at least 64 oz. of water a day.
- Never go more than two days between exercising.
- If you think you’re hungry, drink about 6-8 oz of water and wait about an hour. If your still hungry, then eat something.
- Meal prep.
- Schedule your gym time or workouts like you would a haircut or Dr. appt.
- Try to avoid two starchy foods in a meal.
- Enjoy a cheat meal, not a cheat day.
- Workout with a buddy, or join a small group fitness class.
- Write down your short-term and long-term goals, or create a vision board.
