STAYING MOTIVATED TO EAT HEALTHY
1. Set small, measurable goals that will help you get to your overall large goal. 2. Keep a food and exercise journal. This is extremely helpful to track how much you’re eating – sometimes you don’t realize how many small bites here and there add up. You can do a hand-written journal or go digital and log your food/fitness from the computer or your smartphone. 3. Crowd processed junk food out of your diet by adding in nutritious whole foods. 4. Skip the pantry and head to the fridge. No one really keeps a lot of processed foods in their fridgebecause they’reusually self-stable.When looking for an afternoon snack, stick with something from the fridge (non-fat greek yogurt, fruit, veggies with hummus, edamame, etc.)
5. Try new foods. Eating the same meal every night can get old. Look for new healthy recipes online, in cookbooks or magazines so you don’t get bored with eating healthy.
6. Eat something every 2-3 hours. This keeps your metabolism running and also makes sure you don’t overeat after work.
7. Keep nutritious foods on hand and ready to eat. Preparation is the key to eating healthy! Having fresh vegetables and fruits, lean protein, healthy fats and smart carbs each week is super helpful for staying on track.

“I came to therapy after I broke my arm. I was relearning how to use my arm by getting strength, moving it back and forth, lifting it up, etc. I have been at TheraFit before with a frozen shoulder and before that with a painful shoulder. Each time the therapy was painful and also felt wonderful. The accomplishment of just being able to move was rewarding all in its own. We take our bodies and limbs for granted, until we lose control and can’t move-being able to use my arms means a lot. I play the piano, change my own clothes, open doors, drive among so much more-it’s like getting my life back. I highly recommend TheraFit, not only are therapists experienced, they know what to do. They are friendly, have a love for what they do, also for each other and their patients. The entire staff is awesome.” - M.S.
