hey, friend!

I'm Kathy

A woman well over fifty who strives to make fitness and health a big part of her life. I do this for a variety of reasons, as I'm sure you do as well.

In reality, I don't just want to be more fit than most 50+ year old women, frankly, I would like to be more fit than most 30 year olds. And I am. You can be, too, which is why I write what I do here.

I've said it before and I'll say it again: it's no I've said it before and I'll say it again: it's not this or that diet or exercise program that gets you where you want to go.It's not avoiding sugar, carbs, + gluten, or being paleo, vegan, or keto.It's continually taking action on your goals. It may at times be imperfect action, but stay persistent, keep learning along the way, and don't let setbacks keep you from always taking action!#actiontakers #takeaction #bepersistent #fitover50 #carbsaregood
Our minds are extremely adept at throwing out excu Our minds are extremely adept at throwing out excuses for why we can't do the thing (we say) we want desperately to do.Whether your goal is losing weight, starting or continuing an exercise program, eating more healthy meals, not yelling at your kids, or not spending so much $$, trust me, your brain is also desperate to keep you exactly where you are, right now.Not because it wants you to be unhappy, out of shape, destitute, or frustrated, but because changing is HARD.And your brain is all about CONSERVING ENERGY.So, the next time you find yourself thinking of an excuse again:πŸ”₯I don't have time πŸ”₯I'm too tired πŸ”₯I just can't do it πŸ”₯I'll start tomorrow πŸ”₯I'll do better next time πŸ”₯This is stupidRemember that 𝑰𝒇 π’šπ’π’–'𝒓𝒆 π’”π’†π’“π’Šπ’π’–π’” 𝒂𝒃𝒐𝒖𝒕 π’„π’‰π’‚π’π’ˆπ’Šπ’π’ˆ π’šπ’π’–π’“ π’π’Šπ’‡π’†, π’šπ’π’–'𝒍𝒍 π’‡π’Šπ’π’… 𝒂 π’˜π’‚π’š.What are you looking to change?#lifestylechange #changeyourlife #fitnessover50 #changeyourmindsetchangeyourlife
That’s a quote from Michel De Montaigne, a 16th That’s a quote from Michel De Montaigne, a 16th century French philosopher. You don’t have to know who he is to understand what he’s saying.I talk about this subject a lot. In fact, it's probably the one that I talk MOST about.That's because what we think on a regular basis is who we ARE. And most of what we think is outside of our consciousness. The thoughts are habits, which in turn make up our very belief systems.Beliefs about ourselves, our worth, our own self-image.This is why it's so very important to identify the thoughts that may be holding you back in your life (and in our context, with respect to your health & fitness).Identifying what you habitually think is the crucial first step.Here’s a post I wrote on how your thoughts determine your actions. https://phasetwofitness.com/your-thoughts-determine-your-actions/Comment and let me know if you need further information or direction. I’m here for you!#fitover50 #weightlossmindset #thoughtsmatter
Why do you think it is that you start a (new) diet Why do you think it is that you start a (new) diet with so much enthusiasm, and then give up within a few days or weeks? Is it lack of willpower? Or something else?No time? Boredom?
We’ve all heard it a million times: to lose weig We’ve all heard it a million times: to lose weight (or, usually more accurately, to lose fat), you need to monitor what you eat. 😏You don’t need a new book, plan, program, or coach to tell you that, am I right?But how best to monitor? Count calories or macros? Go by portion sizes? β€œListen to your body”? πŸ€”In reality, ALL of these methods will work if they’re followed consistently (and most of the time)!You simply cannot lose weight without being in a calorie deficit, that much is well documented. But that doesn’t necessarily have to mean counting calories (though it certainly can). ✏️ Yes, of course there are other factors that influence how we metabolize what we eat and drink; there are hormone and insulin issues as well.But it does come down to eating in a calorie deficit (enough for your body to burn any excess fat). Or, calorie balance if you want to maintain your weight.Problem is, we’re all different. And different methods may work for different people.You may need to experiment to find out which method (or combination of methods) works best FOR YOU, your personality, your mindset, your LIFE.You don't have to get sucked into something that doesn't work with your life, thinking that it's the ONLY WAY. Because it's not. πŸ’«https://phasetwofitness.com/diets-dont-work-myth-exposed/#fitnessover50 #dietsdowork #fitforever #gethealthy #goalgetter
