Love this posts! If I’ve to give anyone another tip, it would be, to find a workout buddy… Some people find a little to hard to get their own motivation… They just need someone to push for them 🙂

This is exactly what I needed! I have totally been lacking in motivation since the weather has changed in NorCal and the holidays are in full swing. Thanks for the motivation 🙂

In reply to Michele @ paleorunningmomma. Agreed! I don't have to worry about that so much in California, but when I was in NYC I had to be as careful as ever!

Yes, yes, yes about the importance of number two!! Maintaining our health and fitness year round is what it’s al about. And you’re totally right that people use the weeks/months leading up to the New Year to eat whatever they want and lay around and be lazy because come January their lives will change. But lives do not change overnight! It’s all about slow and steady progress. And amazing for your swim club membership!! Such a great way to stay in shape and so easy on the joints. So proud of all of the healthy choices you’re making, beautiful girl!! Cheers to the healthiest New Year! <3 <3

In reply to Ann. I could not agree more!! It's so hard to watch people set their goals come January and then get discouraged after the rush of the first few weeks of the year. It's allll about the year round maintenance. Then you feel great about yourself all the time!! <3 <3

In reply to Lauryn. Well that is an absolutely wonderful way to be! How I would love to be a reverse procrastinator! I am pretty much that way with fitness and working out, but when it comes to things I really really have to do like work, writing, deadlines, etc, I totally put it off for as long as possible!

I absolutely love number 2 on your list — I always tell my friends I’m a “reverse procrastinator”, meaning I would so much rather do something I have to do and get it over with rather than having to do it later, with something looming over my head. The same applies for working out; I know how hard it is to get into shape, so I just don’t want to have to get out of it and start all over again 🙂 Great tips!!

I really dislike this mindset that you can only make a change in diet/lifestyle whatever on the 1st of January… or even on Mondays. You can start at ANY freaking day of the year, and of the week, just start! If you don’t do it now, you won’t do it on January 1st. And honestly, who starts exactly on Jan 1st anyway since “everyone” is having a hangover… so it’s Jan 2nd..and then 3rd..and so on. Just start now.
I stay as active as all year round. I continue doing my youtube home workouts, no need to get out into the cold. I go by bike to uni everyday so I still get SOME fresh air. For me this is perfect!

I love running outdoors in the winter so it’s not much of an issue, except when a sheet of ice makes it downright dangerous to do it. That’s when I head to the gym for spin or other group classes 🙂
