Reaching Your Goals

Ok so we all have them, things we want to accomplish, improve upon, or frankly just change. Most of us know what we want, but some just don't know where to start. Here at Nutrinity Health Services we believe it is important to identify your goals and make the necessary arrangements (steps) to reach them. How many people do you know who want to drop a couple of pounds? or have been diagnosed with high blood pressure or diabetes? A sure sign it is time to make some changes, yet the necessary changes may seem hard to implement or even fathom. Why is that change is so difficult? And why is it so hard to make dietary and lifestyle changes that you can live with?

Well in reality dietary and lifestyle changes are not as difficult as they may first appear. But where to start you ask? Easy call and make an appointment. Work with a professional. Your Nutritionist at Nutrinity Health Services will help you to:

    1) Identify poor dietary habits and come up with simple solutions for improvements

    2) Identify poor lifestyle habits and come up with simple strategies for improvements


 

Get a step by step program, that works with your lifestyle. It's time to be the healthiest person you deserve to be! Make the changes, and address the issues.


 

Eat out more than once a week? Stop, it's time to plan for meals and snacks.


 

Don't have the right foods on hand? Stop, it's time to plan your grocery shopping.


 

Don't have the time to prepare healthy meals and snacks? Stop, of course you do. If you don't have time to plan and eat healthy foods, there is some serious imbalance in your life and it need to be changed! You are not living life, without your health!


 

Identifying and making the necessary changes can really be difficult, but in reality it doesn't have to be. Be supported, get a plan, and make it permanent. Ya sure you can cut carbs or have pre-made meals delivered right to your front door, and absolutely you will get results, but are these realistic? Are you going to be able to do this for the long term? Chances are your immediate answer is no, and really it should be. It is essential that you learn how to incorporate a healthy diet into your lifestyle. Think healthy, live healthy.

Another part of a successful program is staying motivated and being accountable. It is important to see, and continue to achieve results especially at the beginning of any program. Why in the world would you make any changes if you were not going to get results? Frankly you won't. And that's why it is important to make realistic changes that are really going to get results. This is exactly why it is Essential to work with a professional. They are going to identify your problem areas and help you get results, thus increasing your motivation and probability of keeping up these new healthier habits.

Working with a professional also allows for accountability. This is another part of the support provided to you are Nutrinity Health Services, and often the part clients need the most. Be accountable and you are more likely to stick to it. Now that being said we are hardly Nazi's, but we will sit and discuss how you week went, how you are doing with our recommendations and what changes need to be made each week.

In summary to my ramble here, Yes you do need to make changes to reach your goals and be healthier. Yes you can find a realistic solution that fits your unique lifestyle. And Yes you should enlist support.

Be educated, motivated, supported and held accountable, the secret recipe for reaching your goals.
