• Eating quick fast meals (spaghetti_
• Eating fast food
• Eating late
• Drinking alcohol
• Not drinking enough water
• Not eating fruits/vegables
• Drinking Energy drinks
• Not exercising
• Not sleeping and/or resting enough

The turning point. The turning point for Dr. Tangie when she realized she needed to make a change in her lifestyle was becoming a mother. She wanted to be healthy for her future children and she also didn’t want to gain additional weight from child birth without having healthy habits in place to get it off. In short, Dr. Tangie got to the point where she was tired of herself and the way she was feeling and decided to make a change.

 

Dr. Tangie’s Best Advice for Loving Your Body

1. Do NOT rely on the scale as your only measure of wellness. The scale CAN be a good tool to keep you accountable on your wellness journey, but it should not be the only thing you use to measure your success. Check to see if you are getting stronger (i.e. can carry heavier weights than you used to), or your clothes are fitting less snugly or your endurance (ability to move for longer periods of time) is increasing. Finally, if the scale is making you feel bad about yourself because you don’t like the number its displaying, STOP USING IT.
2. Stand in the mirror naked (if you can), find something you love about your body and say it out loud. Mirror work and affirmations are wonderful tools for learning to love your body.

How to Get Started on Your Wellness Journey

1. Identify your why for starting your wellness journey. Determine how you feel about your self and assess how you feel both physically and mentally. then decide whether you like how you feel or what you need to start doing in order to change
2. Find a supportive community. No journey should be undertaken in isolation. You need a supportive community to help you stay accountable and consistent on your journey..
3. Start small. Develop small, healthy habits. You don’t have to start with working out for 60 minutes a day. Start with 20 minutes a day 3 days a week to develop consistency. Doing small things consistently is better than doing large things sporadically.
