WELL WOMEN OF COLOR | Rosalind Brooks

Five steps to a healthy 2018!

• Decide that this will be the last year that you struggle with weight or health issues. Make this a year of you! You must get yourself well if you are sick, don’t feel well in your body, have inflammation, or weigh more than your body can comfortably hold. Make a commitment that 2018 will be your year to do it!
• Find a plan and stick with it! If you have had success on a particular health program that wasn’t super restrictive or difficult to maintain, then consider starting it again. Or spend an hour to write out your own plan. Another option is to join my Well Women of Color program, which will teach you all you need to know about reversing disease and shedding weight.
• Set four quarterly goals. For instance: the first quarter (Q1) could be to reverse your diabetes, Q2 could be to shed 30 pounds, Q3 might be getting off medication — and so on.
• Write down what goes into your mouth during January and February. As laborious as this may be, it really makes a difference when making lifestyle changes.
• Have a “why” for striving to be your healthiest self in 2018. Whether it’s to be around for your grandbabies, not die an early death, stay cancer-free — whatever it is, write it in multiple places so that you are reminded daily.
