You wake up one morning feeling energised and (finally) determined to embrace a more balanced lifestyle and feel more comfortable in your own skin. Day one is perfect: slimming treatments, anti-cellulite massages, healthy eating, physical activity… You’ve got it all covered! Then, little by little, your motivation quietly slips away… So long, good intentions! Achievable goals, support from friends, moments of pleasure, photos, sticking with it for 3 weeks and little rewards: here are our 6 tips for finding your motivation… and, above all, keeping hold of it.
Set yourself achievable goals
Let’s be honest — if you kick off a Monday morning with a healthier lifestyle and expect to have lost 5 kilos, banished your cellulite and waved goodbye to your love handles by Sunday evening… the disappointment is going to hit hard! To find your motivation and keep it, it’s essential to set realistic goals in the short, medium and long term. For example, in the short term, aim to be able to walk briskly for 30 minutes. In the medium term, look forward to smoother skin. And in the long term, picture yourself slipping back into your favourite jeans! Motivation thrives when you allow yourself to progress at your own pace, one step at a time.
Get your friends on board
If you’re struggling to stay motivated yourself, a great solution is to bring your friends along for the ride! When you’re all working towards a slimming goal together, you can lift each other up during low moments and you’re far less likely to give up. Going it alone, on the other hand, means there’s no one to cheer you on when you feel like throwing in the towel. And let’s be real — it’s always so much easier to stay on track when your friend orders something just as healthy as you at the restaurant and doesn’t cave for a massive burger… Right?
Make your slimming goal something to enjoy
Who said looking after your figure had to be a chore? Certainly not us! To stay motivated, make room for moments of pleasure in your new lifestyle. For example, don’t miss out on treatments that complement your efforts while letting you pamper your body: cryo gel, night cream, massage oil with a delicious monoi scent… Turn your bathroom into a spa and take some time just for yourself!
For maximum motivation, take photos
To reach your slimming goal, there’s no need to step on the scales morning and night or spend hours scrutinising yourself in the mirror from every angle… You’d risk missing your own progress and losing motivation altogether. The best approach is to take photos regularly — you’ll see your transformation far more clearly and find it so much easier to stay motivated!
Stick with it for 3 weeks
It’s often said that adopting a new habit for 3 weeks is enough for it to become part of your daily routine and feel more automatic. The idea is to keep your motivation going for 21 days, knowing that everything will feel easier afterwards! Use these 3 weeks to build essential habits: massage yourself with your Cellublue Cups every day, apply your body care products morning and evening, rebalance your meals, and fit in a little physical activity each day…
Know how to reward yourself
If you want to find and keep your motivation, you also need to be kind to yourself! If that chocolate cake, that cute new skirt or that indulgent body cream is calling your name, go for it — and remind yourself it’s a well-deserved reward for all your daily efforts…
So, ladies — ready to find your motivation and hold on to it with these simple tips?
