starlings when we all treat we can tweet

out this bird emoji because it's like

our little little mascot I think that's

really cute and I kind of like goes

along with my name and stuff so I like

it you guys like it I don't know with

starlings now I think that's cool so if

you want to be one but subscribe to my

channel because I upload all the time

and starting today no starting a few

days ago I'm uploading so much at least

in the month of July don't leave for the

rest of summer though but like you guys

don't even know how many videos are

coming out yet it's like crazy I'm a

little overwhelmed but I do what I kind

of put people I love I know I'm trying

to tell you to subscribe my channel

anyway let's get on with the video all

right so tip number one is to have real

motivation you are not gonna want to get

healthy unless you are actually

motivated and I know this can sound like

shallow to have real motivation but

honestly like get motivated do your ex

just dumped you you want to look hot to

make them jealous amazing do it do you

honestly just hate how you feel in your

clothes so you feel like you can't wear

certain shirts or certain pants or you

dread going to pick out your clothes

because you just

like are you looking at great time to

get healthy like there's no bad reason

to get motivated to get healthy from

personal experience the reason why I

started getting healthy was because I

hated wearing anything because my thigh

started touching I just felt gross all

the time I just felt overweight I felt

like everything my body was moving so

slow and I realized that I felt like

crap because I was eating crap so that

goes along with number two which is to

get inspired and to get educated now

there are so many different lifestyle

routes that you can take you can you

know follow Instagram accounts and see

target progress pictures and see how

people eat a lot of food a accounts I

really recommend shut the catalogue you

can watch the videos I need to how to

lose 100 pounds how did you know

whatever do all this up documentaries on

Netflix are amazing you can watch cats

bears you can read folks like Skinny

that's the book that honestly

changed my life I'm gonna link a lot of

documentaries and books that I really

really like down below they are really

good educate yourself and never stop

learning because the more you learn the

more you're gonna be inspired and you're

gonna stay inspired and stay motivated

to stay healthy going along with that my

third tip is to take progress pictures

on your day one

take a picture that you just don't like

work from there also this really sounds

kind of my stuff but it really did help

me I took a picture in my mirror in my

old bedroom of like how I looked and I

went on Phase two now I edited it to how

I want it to look and I kept a picture

and I looked back a few months later and

I looked like that picture so when you

can kind of see how you want yourself to

look you are really motivated to get to

that point and also when you see your

own progress pictures you know take one

every four weeks when you see how you

are changing your own body you say much

more motivated and trust me that before

and afters are like incredible so this

all kind of goes off one another but my

fourth tip is no diet I sorta God if I

see any of you guys do any of like these

stupid diets that are only good for like

a week where you lose like 15 pounds a

juice cleanse any of that stuff that's

not a real way of eating okay when you

get healthy it's a lifestyle and I know

that sounds like a major change to your

life but when you start changing your

life you're not gonna want to go back

you're old wait you're just gonna have

to experiment and this is really hard to

find what works for you and what doesn't

work for you

are you intolerant to dairy are you

intolerant to me you know aren't you

intolerant to gluten like what is your

body how does your body work everyone's

body is different so I can't tell you

like what's gonna work and what's not

gonna work you're gonna figure it out

for yourself and you're gonna have to

stick to it once you find out what works

for you next up on the diet totem pole

number five tip is to drink only water

cut out sodas cut out any juices

Gatorades power aids sugary drinks I'm

serious like coffee when you sleep

enough hours and you eat right and you

drink enough water you don't need coffee

to get through the day I just drink only

water it really helps you so so much if

you're like me and you don't like the

taste of water put lemon in it I know

everyone tells you that but like don't

hate it till you try it it's really

really yummy and it's also going to

detoxify your body number six is to try

out this new diet lifestyle whatever for

30 days just try for 30 days you can do

anything for 30 days no processed foods

no candies no junk foods just real

healthy Whole Foods water for 30 days

and you're gonna notice a huge

difference and after the 30 days if you

hated it you can go back to your old

ways and do whatever but I can honestly

guarantee you you're going to see change

in 30 days

it takes 30 it takes four weeks for you

to change eight weeks for other people

to see a change and 12 weeks for

everyone to notice a change think about

that you're gonna start seeing changes

in your body and you're not going to

want to go back just try it for 30 days

don't knock it till you try it my next

tip number seven is to try new workouts

and find out what workouts work for you

when I started I would always quote go

to the gym and like lift and stuff and I

was so bored of like the gym is so not

fun like I just really don't enjoy going

to the gym like I still kind of don't

enjoy going to the gym but if the gym is

your option um get a workout buddy it

really does help if you can't afford gym

there's so many videos on YouTube to

watch to workout there's so many videos

to go outside and go workout you're

gonna need to move your body if you want

to

it change I mean it's gonna speed it up

a little bit more but I also want to say

apps and maybe in the kitchen not in the

gym so if you really want to see the

biggest changes in your body you're

gonna have to eat right you can't just

rely on working out just to see changes

in your body well right now what kind of

be a catalyst for your health and I'll

just progressed it forward a lot quicker

and you just feel so good after workout

you release endorphins your brain you

kind of just got like a high off of it

it just feels really good for me when I

started getting fit and getting healthy

I loved going to spin classes and now I

was like my thing that was my next I

really really did enjoy spin classes

before that it was kickboxing I really

thought boxing was so cool so now I just

sort of lived with my mom I teach to

spin classes now that's how much I loved

it I became a spin instructor I take

Barre classes and I like jump around to

other places around here and do it so

poor and so cycle and I just go

everywhere number eight is to sleep

silly this is funny i wouldn't favor

ATIP get enough sleep I'm not kidding

guys you need to have enough sleep so I

always recommend to get at least six

hours of sleep every night it's not that

hard to get six hours of sleep if you go

to bed at midnight that's waking up at 6

a.m. like that's not very hard to do to

get six hours of sleep sleep is so

amazing for your body sleeping helps you

to float it honestly is beauty sleep

like it helps your skin recharge refresh

it helps your body just renourish itself

it just helps you digest everything

break down everything your body needs

sleep to kind of clean up a little bit

do some polishing on some areas it helps

me the most with my bloating I find

significant differences when I sleep six

hours versus when I'm sleeping eight

hours I wake up so much less bloated and

just so much more refreshed and

recharged number nine is to arrive

yourself for me the way I like to be

bribed it's like workout clothes

Lululemon especially Lulu it's like my

shoes when I feel like I'm really happy

with my body or I look good or I feel

really good or I know I've been eating

really healthy you know I'll go to Lulu

and I'll treat myself I'll get some

pants make the sports bra a shirt maybe

just one thing maybe a head

and who knows if you don't want to go

get workout clothes that's totally fine

get them Medicare good pedicure go on a

walk also get a cute workout clothes

will make you really motivation to

workout like I'm not kidding

ask anyone it's so true my last and

final test tip is to learn how to be

excited for your new lifestyle because

it is very addicting to be honest with

you it is so much fun to see how well

your body performs when you nourish it

correctly and you train it properly it's

a very addicting feeling what do you

just feel good on the inside and it

becomes not about the number on the

scale it doesn't become how you look in

the mirror not how you look in the

picture it's not how you compare to your

friends but it's how you feel on the

inside do you feel good do you feel

healthy do you feel like a well-oiled

machine

your body is machine why are you gonna

feed it junk you have to feed it the

best stuff possible and you're just

gonna feel amazing if you reward your

body it will reward you back be the best

version of you that you can possibly be

and I promise you this lifestyle won't

sound so daunting and it will just be

your way of life so that is it those are
