Jul 20

We’ve all got a little more on our schedule than we’d probably like! Between work, school, family, and friends, it can quickly get overwhelming to try to lose weight on top of all that.

Losing weight and keeping the weight off can feel like a full-time job.

Taking just a little bit of time to fit in some focus on health and wellness can give you an amazing amount of benefits without taking up all of your time again!

Meal Prep for the Week

The week gets busy no matter what stage of life you’re in, and one of the first things that seem to go is good solid meals.

To combat the relentless tug of fast food or processed meals, take time out at the beginning of each week to prepare for the days ahead! That means making up a grocery list, shopping in advance, and cooking the meals yourself.

You might have to invest some money into groceries and containers to get started, but the biggest investment you’ll end up making is with your time.

On Sunday afternoons or Saturdays, lay out all your ingredients, get out your cookbook and start prepping! Be sure that every meal includes some protein, veggies, and complex carbs. Get creative with your recipes and make them suit your tastes and needs!

There’s a world of possibilities with your meal preps, and it’s a great way to ensure you keep on the straight and narrow with your meal plan even when you’re in a time crunch.

Make Time for Exercise

Even when things seem like you’re running out of minutes in the day, there’s a way to get in a little exercise!

This is where you can get creative with your workouts and how you’re getting them in. You might only have a few minutes at the beginning of your day or time over lunch, but there’s a way to get in some movement!

Think creatively about how you want to exercise. It might only be a few minutes or half an hour, but there are a lot of different ways to burn calories. Take a walk during your lunch break, do some yoga early in the morning, or unwind with some pilates at the end of the day!

However, you decide to fit in exercise, make it a priority!

Prioritize Protein

Protein is one of those magic building blocks for your health and wellness plan!

When you’re rushed and not sure where to go next, choosing protein at each meal is a great first step. Even if you don’t make a perfect meal choice every day, including protein gives you a lot of what you need without causing you to derail your entire day.

Since protein is so flexible, it’s a simple way to fuel your body well, even if you don’t make a perfect choice each time. Protein keeps you fuller for longer, so you won’t end up snagging those sweet treats or processed foods later in the day when those hunger pains well up!

Takeaway

We’ve all got a lot of things going on, and it can be hard to focus on our own health and wellness!

The minutes in the day run out fast. Losing weight can feel like a full-time job and when you’re trying to do it on top of all your other responsibilities, it can get swept under the rug.

Finding small ways to change your diet and exercise plan helps you lose weight and keep it off even when you’re busy throughout the day! Staying consistent is key as you work with those small amounts of time!
