Everyone knows what I'm talking about here. You spent years upon years of neglecting your body-- years without a constant workout routine, eating badly, some exercise here and there, and your body slowly changed over time. So slowly in fact, that you didn't notice it and thought it just happened overnight. Naturally, you decided you would start working out now and just like your body changed for the worse "overnight," you would get results overnight. But it doesn't work that way.
Your body is a machine. It wants and sets itself up for routine. Why do you think you get hungry, get full, are able repeat daily tasks, etc? It’s because your body has programmed itself to do this naturally! It doesn't like change. It doesn't like to work harder than it needs to. It takes time to "program" your body for results. When you are not active, your body burns calories at a slower pace. Why? Because it can! Your body is stubborn, and you really have to attack it, fight it, to get it to go with you. Some people are able to catch it off guard, and see some instant results just from a few weeks of working out. But for most others, it can take months to see those results.
But you’re not in this for the short term either. Who doesn't want to live a healthier lifestyle? You’re not popping a "fix it all" pill that lasts forever. You are changing the way you live permanently. So make sure you come in with your mindset for the long haul, not the short term. Sure, you can have short term goals, but don't let your bad "vices" become a future need. Don't tell yourself, "I will just cut out all fast food now while I'm getting in shape" because later you will put yourself right back in the same boat as before. Write down your exact goals, the "bad" items you want to cut out of your life, YOUR long term plan, and stick to it.
