Bikini Pro Tip:

Consistency is key, start with small changes and that will add up to bigger results. The
best way to start is by cutting out extra hidden calories i.e. dressings, dips, sauces, and
drinks that are high in calories like soda or juices. Drink more water! Add more steps to
your day; adding 10-minute walks, parking a little further away, taking the stairs instead
of the elevator. By the end of the week, these all add up and will contribute to your
success.

1) It is so true that you need to trust the process, trust your coach/trainer if you have one.
2) Stay consistent, so that if you start to plateau, the appropriate changes can be made.
3) Know that your fitness journey will take time; this is a marathon and a lifestyle change, not a sprint.
4) Know your why and write down your goals.
