Trim Your Tummy - All or Nothing
We are all guilty of making the "all or nothing" mistake of rationalizing our reason to "start tomorrow" to trim your tummy. You don't need to have everything in its right place in order to start trimming your tummy. You and I both know that tomorrow never comes and we have to just face the reality that life waits for no one.
So just try your best with what you can by doing a big thing like getting a full workout in or doing a small thing like choosing to have one slice of pizza instead of two. The thing that really matters is that you are doing something and are holding fast to your goal to trim your tummy. True and lasting results come from the many small changes we make from one day to the next.
Stop procrastinating and take responsibility for your health by starting Today!

Trim your Tummy - Words of Advice from the Wise...
Here's another note-worthy gem of advice to trim your tummy compliments of Holly Rigsby for the answer to the ever popular question of "How can I get rid of my mommy belly?":
"This question does not always sit well with the women I speak to. Unfortunately, the diet and weight loss industry has made many fitness professionals' jobs quite hard. Women are simply bombarded with misleading ads about what it takes to get a flat, fat-free tummy. So when I present the formula for what DOES work,I am the one they wish not to believe. And thus the frustrating cycle continues. After weeks, months and even years of wasted time,energy and Money, I finally get the "cry for help". So what is the Fat-Burning-Melt-Your-Mommy-Belly formula?
1. Bypass the Gimmicks
This is where you can save yourself a ton of time, energy and keep your hard earned money in your purse! There is no "one" secret strategy/exercise/supplement to make that nagging trouble spot disappear and reveal the toned, flat belly you are after.
2. Trade a routine of AB exercises for Moves that BURN Fat
Sure! Including "Ab" exercises as part of your routine is beneficial, but the truth is - no amount of "crunches" will make the fat on your belly disappear. As far as Fat Loss and "exercise" goes - you must to use a total body approach - using resistance training to work your upper body, lower body and core with moves that incorporate many muscles at once. This is the ONLY way to exercise that will significantly boost your metabolism so your body begins to burn more fat.
Did you know? Some of the best "ab exercises" actually use your whole body! ~ My Favorites: WoodChops and Burpees ~ Work your abs, use more muscles, increase your metabolism....flat tummy results appear before your eyes! Besides, the "Abs" that you want to work through crunches are small....giving you little in return as far as fat burn is concerned. You can Burn double or even triple the amount of calories by doing full body resistance training exercises.
3. Flat Tummy Foods
Supportive nutrition is extremely important, not only to keep you energized, but to provide your body with quality nutrients to create a healthy metabolism and burn more fat. You CANNOT achieve great abs if you are putting junk into your body - no matter how great your workout program is.
Due to the fact that many women have difficulty letting go of what they think works -only a small percentage of you will actually take what I have to share and apply it. These are the women who will be proud to wear anything that respectfully displays their new, beautiful, flat tummy.

Trim your Tummy - How to FALL back into Shape
Okay, so you had September to get the family back into the school routine and the "I just don't have the time" excuse can no longer be used when it comes to taking action to trim your tummy. Here's what Holly Rigsby, busy Mom and CPT has to say about Falling back into shape this fall:
There is no better time than NOW to take a step back and either create a plan that works for you OR re-evaluate the plan you have been following and make some adjustments so you can continue to see results.
Think about this:
We expect our children to learn and follow a new routine.
We expect our children to recount the days lessons.
We expect our children to challenge themselves.
We expect our children to recover from the day's adversities.
We expect our children to learn from their mistakes.
Why not expect the same of ourselves?
We've motivated our children to begin a new school year, so share some of that motivation with yourself!
Here are 5 Back to School Fit Tips to get you started:
1. Avoid Morning chaos.
Prep it all the night before. Mornings do not have to start off stressing you to the max. With a little planning, everyone's day can begin with confidence and a smile.
2. Breakfast.
Take the time to eat the most important meal of the day. Moms are notorious for skipping this meal for they are simply too busy taking care of everyone else. Do something different this school year and fuel your body each and every morning. My favorite: egg white omelet, yogurt and blueberries. Quick, satisfying and super energizing.
3. Mark your calendars.
You schedule your children's events, schedule your workouts, they are just as important.
4. Eliminate Afternoon Cravings.
Enjoy an after school snack with your children. Fresh fruit and a handful of nuts is a healthy and energizing snack for everyone.
5. Get Moving.
Kids need 60 minutes of physical activity every day, so join them! Take it outside after school. Tyler's favorite back yard game - Kick Ball. We somehow manage to make him roll on the ground in laughter every time.
When you take a step back and identify the simple steps you can take each day to incorporate a fit and healthy lifestyle, it becomes 10 times more manageable.
Fall is the season to jazz up your efforts to trim your tummy and notice a positive change to how you look and feel this fall.
