Do you want to learn what it’s going to take for you to achieve your IdealShape?

Tracking is going to help you discover the areas you need to improve to get to your IdealShape.  What you need to track is your feelings and emotions each day, your food plan, and your exercise regimen.

Many of you already have blogs, but maybe you need something more private to share feelings, emotions, and thoughts that are affecting your decisions each day.  The process of writing these things down will help you realize the impact of your thoughts about yourself, food and exercise.  “See It, Think It, Believe It, and Be It” is a motto I use in my own life and with my clients.  Once you can truly visualize yourself at your IdealShape, think correctly about obtaining your IdealShape, and believe that you are going to obtain your IdealShape, there is no way you will fail to be your IdealShape.

Track your food intake on the DailyBurn website. You will be amazed to discover what you are eating and how many calories are in the foods you’re eating. Even if you are doing a program like Weight Watchers or Jenny Craig, tracking will give you insight into what you are eating. Increasing your knowledge about the foods you are eating will help you make better decisions.

Keep a log of the type of exercise as well as specific exercises you are doing to measure improvement.  A good exercise program will keep you progressing month after month.

Every one of my most successful clients has grown to love tracking.  I am currently training a woman who is down 26 pounds over a three month period of time.  She consistently loses 2 pounds or more every week.  She is a master tracker.  She knows exactly what she is supposed to do every day and she tracks it to make sure it happens.

What if you lost 2 pounds every week? How long would it take to get to your IdealShape?

We have all heard the quote, “If you fail to plan, you plan to fail.” Well, it is the truth and none of us want to be failures.  If I told you all you had to do for the next 90 days to achieve your IdealShape was take 15 minute every night before bed and plan the next day… would you do it? Once you know what you should be doing, that’s really all it takes to become insanely successful with your exercise and nutrition programs.

Planning makes you accountable to both yourself and the weight loss expert you’re working with. Planning will give you a quick reference to your compliance with the designated program. For example, I teach all of my clients what they need to be doing with nutrition and have them plan and track their nutrition at dailyburn.com. When we weigh each week, if they aren’t seeing the success they want to, we jump on the computer and look at their diets to see what they’re doing. Because they are planning and tracking, I easily see what nutrition mistakes they are making and help them adjust.

Not too long ago I had a client come in who wasn’t losing weight as quickly as they wanted.  They said they were eating the designated amount of calories explained in the IdealShape eBook. So I said, “Let’s check out what you’re eating and when you are eating it.” We jumped on dailyburn and the problem was clear: they were eating a majority of their calories in one meal even though they were eating six meals a day. I made minor adjustments and got them planning proportionate meals every day. They lost four pounds the next week.

I couldn’t have made the changes to help this client achieve success if they weren’t planning and tracking. Get tips on foolproof tracking and planning here.
