Get moving

Get off the couch and get moving is a frequent topic of conversation that I have with Slender For Life™ Weight Loss Hypnosis clients. You don’t have to run a marathon or ride your bike 100 miles, but, what can you do in increase your physical activity?

Maybe you can’t get out of a chair, but can do do leg lifts? Maybe you walk up and down the step at your home. Or can you take your dog for longer and faster walks?

So ask your doctor if getting off the couch is right for you!

“Get moving” is Tip 4 in Chapter 7 of my book, Becoming Slender For Life.

5. Get moving

Being super-sized offers special challenges when it comes to exercising, but no matter what your current fitness level is, you can always do more. Just start gradually and congratulate yourself for all progress, no matter how small it may seem to someone else. If you aren’t comfortable exercising in public yet, then there are still plenty of things you can do at home until you are ready to venture out. See Chapter Six for all kinds of good ideas. Even the smallest changes to your routine will add up. Hide the remote and walk across the room to change the channel. Do some stretches before you even get out of bed in the morning. Rely less on others to do things for you.
