A New Year to a New You

Happy New Year!  Those words are filled with such promise and hope.  A brand new shiny year of 365 days lies waiting in the future for you to discover, create and live joyously.  It is almost like the most exciting present you received as a child, that you knew would stay with you forever.

Along with the shiny new toy comes responsibility - are there any old toys that should be thrown out, recycled or repurposed?  Are there any old habits that need to be addressed and changed so they do not tarnish the shine of the New Year?  Is there anything about yourself that you want to change?

Reflective questions usually lead to the topic of weight loss.  If you looked in the mirror at the start of the New Year and you do not like what you see, isn't it time to decide to change yourself?  Not with a diet, but with a proven system of healthy food, eaten six times a day.  A healthy way to lose weight and keep it off forever.

It is like the gift of health that you give to yourself!

Imagine being at your target weight.  What would you look like? How would your clothes fit and would you continue to notice the tight grip of your waistband like you do now?  Would your energy level be much higher than it is now?  How would you feel with the "weight monkey" off of your back?  Just think of how much thought energy you spend on a daily basis thinking about your weight...

The 5 and 1 Plan from Take Shape for Life is doctor designed and approved. It features 5 Medifast meals (over 70 varieties) and one "lean and green" meal.  You eat six times a day and you are not hungry because your body receives at least 11 gms of protein per meal.  And the best part is -- you eliminate the "will power struggle" that usually defeats dieters!

As you lose weight, you notice subtle changes in your attitude toward food.  You begin to recognize the situations where you would use food to salve a hurt, or fill a hole in your emotional world.  Take Shape for Life teaches you to disengage from those behaviors and chose new responses (non-food related) the next time you are faced with those triggers.  And that is how you loose the weight and keep it off - for life!

If you are ready to give yourself the gift of health, please go to Take Shape for Life and send us an email to get started.  Make 2011 the year you created a New You!
