Sure, it’s nice to dream big and I’m all for that, but when it comes to fitness and essentially changing my lifestyle, starting small is best for me. While it’s easy to say I’m going to join a gym cut out sugar and workout an hour a day is easy, the follow through is the hard part.When I set lofty goals I’m more likely to give up quicker.
