The first thing you have to do to start a exercise program

Anyone who has read my articles or personally knows me has learned that I have lost a lot of weight through dieting and exercise. In fact I work so hard at it that my wife sent me these jokes to lighten my mood up. Some times a person just gets tired and looks for excuses to not work out. That is why this topic for this article is training your mind and your will. I’ll get to that shortly. But first I want you to enjoy these jokes my wife sent me and then when your brain is warmed up we will start on the serious topic. Enjoy:

It is well documented that for every minute that you exercise, you add one minute to your life. This enables you at 85 years old to spend an additional 5 months in a nursing home at $5000 per month.

My grandmother started walking five miles a day when she was 60. Now she's 97 years old and we don't know where the hell she is.

The only reason I would take up exercising is so that I could hear heavy breathing again.

I joined a health club last year, spent about 400 bucks. Haven't lost a pound. Apparently you have to show up.

I have to exercise early in the morning before my brain figures out what I'm doing.

I like long walks, especially when they are taken by people who annoy me.

I have flabby thighs, but fortunately my stomach covers them.

The advantage of exercising every day is that you die healthier.

If you are going to try cross-country skiing, start with a small country.

And last but not least: I don't exercise because it makes the ice jump right out of my glass.

Did you enjoy those? Well the truth of the matter is that everyday you wake up and have to struggle with the thought of going were you go to exercise and work your but off. I can’t even count the times were I said to myself, Ah I’ll just skip it today and do it tomorrow. Then tomorrow never comes. I have done that for many years until the last couple. That is when I discovered the program I use now. I learned that I had to train my mind and will first. First I told my self day after day that if I wanted to loose weight I have to do this because no one else is going to do this for you. I always remember the catch phrase “Just Do It.” I still after a year and a half have to tell myself, sometimes everyday to “Just Do It.” The bottom line is if you can not train your mind to loose weight or even have a healthier lifestyle then you are not going to accomplish what you set out to do. Look at professional athletes they have to work there craft every day one way or the other if they did not have their minds trained they definitely would not be were they are now. I am a huge football fan and I remember a story, when I was a teenager, about Walter Payton. The very morning after the probowl at 6 am in the morning when everyone else was sleeping, this person was awaken to hearing noise in the court yard of the hotel. When he looked out the window there he say Walter Payton doing sprints and running stairs. He proceeded to go talk to him and asked what he was doing and he replied I’m getting ready for next season. In those days that was simply amazing and no wonder he was one of the greats all time and one of the reasons football is now year around. If you want success this is the kind of attitude you need to have. Once you train your mind to think like that you to will be successful in loosing weight and I swear it will come easier and easier as you go and when you start seeing results you will have a hard time coming up with excuses not to exercise.
