When to stop eating!

Pick a time after dinner and don't eat after this time. Drink water!

MORE INFORMATION:
I used to snack a lot in the evening and now I just stop eating after dinner which is around 5 or 6. I stick to water after that and get on Sparks!

This means that I'm not starving (hungry), if dinner was too light I'd resort to an apple or cucumber sticks.

Packing for success

I used to have a big motivation when it came to going to the gym. The biggest excuse was forgetting workout clothes or not having time to workout. So, I have starting packing my gym bag each evening right after I get home from work. I also went through my day and picked the best time to meet my husband at the gym. If a meeting comes up I pick another time to go to the gym.

MORE INFORMATION:
I have a plan each day. This has help me to meet my goal to workout at least 5 days a week. 306
