Do you want to lose weight?

I mean really WANT to lose weight?

Ask yourself honestly, what are you willing to do to finally shed those extra kilos that cause you so much pain!

Many people will 'say' they will do anything, but when it comes to the crunch they are rarely willing to DO what is necessary to achieve the desired results.

You see, for many people the barriers for not exercising regularly every week, or eating and drinking the right stuff, or making some fundamental changes to their existing lifestyle habits are not physical limitations that are impossible to get over, it is purely psychological.

You may say you 'can't' train 3-5 times a week, the reality is you mean to say you not willing to devote the time to do this! You WILL NOT give up the glass of wine or the treats you give yourself, rather than you CAN'T give them up. Yes it is semantics but the truth is you can make these changes its purely down to if you want to.

Pretty much in every case, you will need to make a sacrifice in your current lifestyle to really make a long lasting difference in your body shape. That means cutting out the habitual glass of wine in the evening, the regular treats as well as changing your day to day schedule to fit in the regular workouts.

The real question is are you WILLING to make these sacrifices?

The problem we have today is the expectation of results, and fast! Our media and the fitness industry has perpetuated the belief that anybody can get miraculous results in incredibly short time frames. And whilst incredible results ARE possible AND in a short period of time they do require substantial (and I really do mean substantial) sacrifice and effort on your part to achieve this. Sorry it doesn't come for free!

There is a magic pill, and it is called SACRIFICE and EFFORT.

The quick fix culture we have become used to in every other aspect of modern life is now translated in to our health and fitness needs, the problem is many of the quick fixes are not particularly healthy or permanent. Starvation diets, body wraps, diet pills, cosmetic surgery and other extreme measures CAN produce visible results in the short term, but they are certainly NOT long term strategies and not healthy in any way.

Now for the contradiction!

On one hand I say that quick fixes for your health are not healthy, there is a way to get a quick fix that you can start today which CAN have a healthy and long term effect.

Peter Poulsen is a 26 year old guy heading for a heart attack before the age of 40! Despite having an active lifestyle in his late teens and early twenties, his weight ballooned when his career took priority, and a horrendous diet of takeaway foods and beers with his mates became the norm. At 108kg something needed to change.

The effect was almost immediate, when his diet was completely turned on its head and a rigorous training regime was implemented. In the first week he lost 2.1 kilos and 4cm from his waist.

12 weeks later Peter was a different man, losing 18kg and over 40cm from the combined circumference measurements of his waist, hips, thigh and chest! When his grandmother saw him for the first time in 6 months, she burst in to tears, should couldn't believe the transformation in her grandson!

BUT, the transformation was due, in no small part to the the magic pill of SACRIFICE and EFFORT! It was hard work, but the habits Peter adopted in the first few weeks will stay with him for the rest of his life.

So what are these habits?

To be honest when I tell you they will sound obvious. The HARD part is actually being ready to SACRIFICE what has gone before and to make an EFFORT to implement the new habits!

* Follow a diet rich in unprocessed, unrefined food and drink

* Exercise at least 3-5 times a week in a way that BOOSTS your metabolism (this doesn't include jogging, aerobics or crunches!)

* Make BIG sacrifices of the lifestyle habits that are currently working against your efforts.

* Setting and then taking daily action on a BIG goal that drives you towards your vision of the perfect you!

WARNING, do not dismiss this as obvious or simple, you do need to ask yourself if you are willing to do everything it takes to achieve your ultimate vision. There is no half-hearted attempts, no picking and choosing one or two elements, no "trying it on" for a week or so to see if it "works for you". Only total dedication PERIOD.

If you've 'tried' everything else, now is the time to 'DO' this. Good luck!

Knowing where to start is the hardest part for many people, which is why Tim Goodwin, coach and personal trainer from Luxembourg, makes his Goal Achievement Strategy workbook available to those willing to take action starting today.
