Are you the kind of person that decides that the New Year is the time to get in shape? Do you say to yourself “this year will be the year I will lose weight and get healthy”?

People rarely follow through on this. They go to the gym a handful of times in January, once or twice in February, and then they’re gone by March.

Don’t let yourself fall into the January Gym Person category! Often people will expect an instant change in their body and the way they feel. When they do not look completely different in a month, they decide that exercise isn’t working for them and they start going to the gym less and less, until they completely stop going. Don’t let this happen to you.

Make the gym a regular part of your life and keep going! Make healthy eating habits part of your daily routine. Act like the person you want to be and stick with it!
