Fast track your personal weight loss success.

Overcoming Obstacles

 
Overcoming Obstacles

Don’t Look Back
Everyone has failures or mistakes from the past. To have success, you need to learn from your past and value those difficult lessons but do not every dwell on the past. Simply move forward and make better, more educated decisions from the lessons learned.
To succeed, you need to have dreams and aspirations. Be honest with yourself as to what you want out of life and what you want to give of your life. Allow your mind to dream and think big. Aiming low and hitting the target is not a good goal.

Create a plan of Action 
Create a Business Plan as your very first step if you are planning to build a business. Whether you will be searching for investors or not, this plan will be the blueprint to your success. The Business Plan will consist of market trends, financial planning, competitive analysis, exit strategies, marketing and promotional options, everything about your goal. When going before an investor, you will be required to have a Business Plan. This is by far the most important document of all. If your success were something personal, you would not need to create a Business Plan although a project plan would be a good option to allow you to keep track of everything involving your goal. I am not personally a fan of a complex business plan.  Keep it simple and be able to modify as needed.

Persevere
To reach success, you have to persevere. Even Thomas Edison had to learn this. When he was creating the incandescent light bulb, it took him more than 10,000 times to get it right. Keep striving even when it becomes challenging.

You need to have determination. With good intentions, there may be a close friend or family member that feels it would be better if you focused your attention in another direction. Uphold your unstoppable attitude, determined to succeed.

Consistent Application of Proven Principles will bring SUCCESS.

To your health,

Crush Your Cravings.


"Giving in" to food cravings is frustrating for anyone. It represents a loss of control. I have found great success in controlling your mind and your environment to aid you to better outcomes.

Look past your immediate desire and play out in your mind how you will feel while eating this  "much needed" food and then play out the after effects. How do you feel once your are finished?
A few "rules" I have my clients to focus on is:
There is nothing in the cake that will improve your health or improve your results.  However, occasional indulgences are part of life. 
 Restrict Restriction and Include Inclusion - Robert
Make the act of including indulgences part of our food plan.
   
Control your kitchen
Keep temptation out of sight. That means clean the counters and kitchen of "junk" and actually create a scenario where you have to go purchase the items you want so badly. This will act to slow   down your reaction. 

Know WHY you are eating what you are eating

Are you hungry or bored or is it just a habit?  Or have you convinced yourself that you deserve it? Play the scenario out to the end again.
Managing food cravings is a simple but difficult process. In my experience, I have seen that most often when an individual makes a emotional judgment and gives into eating when they are not hungry it is often do to temporarily losing sight of their goal(s) and/or continuation of habits.
Try these tips for controlling food cravings:
  1. Develop a mantra. Something like: "I feed my body and my needs, not my taste buds."  
  2. Ask yourself questions like:  "Why am i going to eat this?  Is it because I actually want it and need it or am I re-actively responding to an immediate desire?"
  3. Keep focused on your goal. Post it in sight at work and at home and refer to it often.
  4. Drink a glass of water to slow the decision making process down. Water can make you feel a little fuller AND it will give you something to do while deciding if you are actually going to give in to your cravings.
Yours in health,

I have tried every diet available. What can i do to lose weight?

I’ve tried every diet under the sun, why will this one be any different?
What makes the IFS System special is the three f’s: FOOD, FITNESS and FOCUS.

The known, inarguable rules to how people gain and lose weight have been established for years. We at IFS will spend time educating you on what it will take for you to be successful now and in the future. Most weight loss methods focus on one of the F’s leaving you to fend for yourself on the other two aspects. These attempts by the dieter are well meaning but incomplete. The IFS Body Transformation System will make sure that you are moving the right amount, doing the most effective and efficient workouts possible while creating a food plan that is Realistic, Progressive and Maintainable. 

We will work with you, personalizing your fitness plans while you learn a new, instinctive style of eating that focuses on long-term health, performance and nutrition. There is no cookie cutter, or one size fits all plan with us.

Most companies depend on repeat clients and pray on the 97% relapse rate of dieting.  IFS is a socially responsible corporation.  We not only have a solution but the solution we offer promotes a healthy lifestyle and an improved quality of life.
