Over the last 8 days I have been on a vacation.  It had been a while since I've taken time away from my personal training business and the FIT LAB.  You know how it is...  'they can't get along without me', 'I don't have the time', 'We don't have the money', are only a few excuses in regards to packing up and getting out of town.  I always new my staff was awesome but I was a bit apprehensive about leaving. Well guess what?  Everything ran smoothly while I was away!   

Being grateful for my staff is an understatement.  They are awesome and me?  I'm rested, have wonderful memories, shared experiences with family members, enjoyed new foods and more!  

Tomorrow is my first day back to work and I am ready with new goals for myself, new ideas for my personal training clients and I am anxious to lead my classes.  The truth is I needed the vacation more than I thought.  When was the last time you took some time from your routine, the stressors of everyday life or shared new experiences?  If it's been awhile I suggest you take time to rest, re-group and reconnect.  It doesn't matter where you go.... just go!   The benefits are awesome!! 


...... I am already thinking about where to go on my next vacation!

Did the program work?  Yes.  Was it sustainable?  In most cases no, it was not.  Statistics state 97% of weight loss is regained within 3 years and often it's more weight than what was originally lost.  All that effort and hard work down the drain! What does one do?  We start all over again and so the c...
