Tip #14 The Truth about the First Two Weeks Of Change

Handy new health check book? Check. New workout shoes? Check. Fridge stocked with "heath" foods? Check.
How many times have you or someone you know been in this position? All the tools are in your hands.You're motivated, inspired, and eager to change your life-forever, right? Not so fast.
You have to accept the natural ebb and flow of life. Changing health habits is never easy-you'll have good days and bad. Accept and prepare yourself for it.You might eat a new food that tastes like dirt (at first).You might go to aerobics class and think you're in a torture chamber.And you know what? It's okay. Accept the fact that you won't automatically love every new thing you try. You might hate the first two weeks of trying something new. But when the potential payoff for your efforts id life-changing, you've got to give it some time. In two weeks you might be able to stand it, and in four weeks you might love it. You never know until you try.
