Of all of the questions an complaints I receive about living healthier, the most common one is "I want to get healthier, but I don't know where to start." If you feel this way, you certainly are not alone. It's so easy to fall into a funk, find yourself feeling unhealthy and overwhelmed, and want to get into a better routine but not even know where or how to begin.
The key that helps almost everyone I've known is to take things one day at a time and implement healthy habits one step at a time. Of the following list, you can choose just one new healthy habit, figure out how to add it to your daily routine, and make it stick...then, move on to another, and another, and another. Committing to one thing at a time takes the overwhelming aspect out, allows you to feel success with each achievement, and will set you into a positive cycle that can only gain momentum with new and exciting feel-good, healthy habits on the horizon! :)
Your healthy habit list:
Better sleep: wake up earlier and fall asleep earlier
Eat more vegetables
Eat more fruit
Cut out processed foods
Start a cardio routine
Start a strength training routine
Cook at home more often (until ideally cooking at home every night)
Limit sodium
Limit sugar
While this list is certainly not an exhaustive one, it can help to start with any of these.
And, try to remember that goals are always a great thing, so don't be afraid to set some, strive for them, and complete them! Success is an amazing motivator,...and nothing feels better than success! :)

As a Personal Trainer, Fitness Nutrition Specialist, and author of fifteen health books, I want to provide you with the most up-to-date research, exercises, and nutrition information that will help you improve your health, your body, and your life simply and easily. I've experienced how much a healthy lifestyle can improve every area of your life, and I want to share that experience with you, show you how easy it can be, and provide you with the information, advice, and tips you'll need to achieve the same!
