Consistency is Key!

I recently had the pleasure of working with a couple of my closest friends on reaching their fitness goals. To be more specific, each wanted to lose a few pounds...who doesn't, right? Without going through all of the minor details, each was able to reduce their body fat 5-10%, and each lost about 40-60 pounds. They were able to reach their goals through application of a few techniques, ranging from portion control to increased exercise output. Now, this did not happen overnight, of course. It actually took each of them about 6 months! The main point I wish to stress is that both were CONSISTENT in their efforts, from the meals to their excercise.
For instance, many of my clients come to me with fitness issues brought about by neglect in one form or another. What I mean to say is that they were CONSISTENT in NOT doing the things they should in order to maintain their desired level of health and wellness.
So the bottom line is this...Consistent effort (or lack of effort/neglect) will garner consistent results, good or bad. It's up to YOU!
