#1. Never give up. Just keep doing it even though you make mistakes.
#2. Set realistic goals over the long term and start working on those goals TODAY. A realistic goal is losing 2 lbs of fat per week (you may build some muscle by accident along the way too, but that is an added bonus). Don't get discouraged if you gain weight in the first week because that will probably be new muscle weight.
#3. Don't procrastinate. Its today or never because tomorrow never comes.
#4. CARDIO BABY, CARDIO!
#5. Weightlifting helps too. Maintains muscle tone and builds your confidence. But remember that cardio should come first. Aim for 80% cardio and 20% weight training.
#6. Healthy eating means a good balance of everything and not binging all the time.
#7. If you do binge due to loss of control, don't worry about it, just get right back to your fitness routine and work even harder.
#9. Eat an apple every day. Really easy! Apples contain chemicals which cut back on your hunger so you don't feel as hungry.
#10. Take up new sports and activities that are fun. eg. Archery, boxing, kickboxing, rock climbing, snorkeling...
#11. Get yourself a training buddy / jogging partner with similar goals.
#12. Stretches! Stretching uses muscles you often forget about and maintains flexibility.
#13. Track your progress by counting calories, measuring your weight daily and keep track of everything in a journal. People who track their progress see the results, feel more confident and are twice as likely to stick with it and succeed.
