It's Time to Make a Change
"Change is always possible, and a person is never too out-of-shape, overweight, or old to make healthy changes." It is that time of the year again to start thinking about things we will resolve to do differently in this New Year. It is estimated that 40-45% of Americans make New Year's resolutions but less than half of those have kept that resolution after 6 months.
Why NOT thinking of any resolutions this year but just sit down and write 1-2 goals that is related to improving your health, stamina, or weight?
Keep in mind when you start to work towards your goals:
Focus on your goal. You are making a commitment. A resolution is not wishful thinking, but an active commitment to change.
Keep track of what you're doing. Write down the activities or strategies you are using to accomplish your goal. Successful weight reduction is more likely when food and exercise journals are kept.
Think of change as a creative process. Take time to reflect on your progress. What's working? What's not working and why?
If you've tried a few times to make changes but is still getting stuck, talk to your doctor, a fitness professional, or a registered dietitian will be your best bet to learn more. Most of the time, a few tips and ideas can do wonders! Besides, to be successful in making changes, it takes more than just knowledge. It helps if you can find a buddy who really understands your needs and can motivate you to make the lifestyle changes.

改變從現在開始
踏入新的一年,我們會訂立新的目標及決心。約有40-45%的美國人會在新的一年訂立新的目標,但少於半數的人在半年後仍然繼續執行。以下有3個策略,讓你能更容易實踐你的新目標:
專注於自己的目標。訂立目標就是對自己作出承諾,這目標並不只是你"希望"會發生的目標,而是要你積極地為這目標而作出改變。
省察自己所做的事。記錄讓你能達成目標的活動和策略。成功的減重方法之一就是每天記錄你的食物和運動。
將改變習慣變成有創意的過程。花點時間去思考自己的進展。什麼是有效的,什麼是沒什麼效用的,以及為什麼?
如果你已經嘗試過作出改變,但仍然沒有進展,你可以諮詢你的家庭醫生、健身教練,或註冊營養師。他們的建議能讓你的目標更快達到。此外,這不僅僅增加你對健康的認識,你也能找到一個真正了解你的需要,而且能鼓勵你改變生活方式的朋友。
