When I started, I was 65 years old, sedentary, sitting at a computer all day at work, never working out and on blood pressure medication.
Chuck Fehr-Hendrix has lost 165 pounds in the HMR weight management program at Milestone in just 16 months. He said, "I wasn't sure I could do the program because I had tried other programs before. But I am very pleased with the results and I don't even recognize the guy in that picture!" [see "before" picture below] He added, "The HMR staff and classmates began to feel like family. Being healthy changed aspects of my life for the better I had never thought of!"

1. Write down your goals on a piece of paper you can look at every day.
2. Set measurable goals: with deadlines.
3. Set smaller goals to reach your bigger ones. Weekly workouts or runs to reach your marathon goal. Drink 8 glasses of water a day to boost metabolism for weight loss, etc.
4. Surround yourself with people that support you and your goals. You can't have negativity bringing you down.
5. Find a workout group, buddy, or trainer. Everyone needs accountability. I train with one of our trainers once a week.
6. Don't overwhelm yourself. Pick 3-5 goals for the year.
7. Miracles and dreams don't become reality overnight. It's the day-in day-out work that goes into something that when you finally reach it, that makes it great. Small changes make big differences.
You cannot beat the person that doesn't give up.
If one day isn't perfect, get back in the saddle and get going again.
