SkinnyMint programs are easy to follow and require minimum commitment, but sometimes we all need a little extra encouragement and motivation to stay on track. Here are some tips to help you sail through to your body goals.

Hectic lifestyles, constant temptations, peer pressure… yes, motivation can take a battering when confronted with all these factors. And while our programs require minimal commitment, there is always that possibility that you’ll fall off track.

If you’re feeling a little anxious about persevering through your 28-day program, then read our five tips to help you stay driven and get the most out of your program. 

 1. Do it with a friend

Teatox with a friend so you can compare notes and give each other extra encouragement.

Remember when you were little and your teacher made you pair up with a friend to do everything together? The buddy system is a great way to help you monitor, compare notes and encourage one another to keep going. Grab a friend and get started – together!

PS: Share your motivation with your bestie with our Besties deal and save big!

2. Recognize your process

Stay motivated during your program by weighing yourself once a week.

Instead of just focusing on the finishing line, pay attention to your progress. Don’t be afraid to get on the weighing scale, measure your waistline and pay attention to the positive changes happening to your body. But of course, don’t get obsessive! We recommend measuring up once a week during your 28-day program.

3. Document your journey

Document your journey and get encouragement from friends

If you’re big on social media, share your 28-day journey with your friends. Encouraging and reassuring words like “Wow! Keep it up!” and “You look so much healthier!” can really give a mega boost to your self-esteem.

Don’t forget about us! We want to be part of your journey too! Follow and tag us @skinnymintcom and share your process with us by hash-tagging #SkinnyMint #SkinnyMintResults 

4. Reward yourself

Have a cheat day once a week and reward yourself – you deserve it!

Don’t tell yourself that you can never have cake again. Tell yourself that you’ll save your cravings for cheat day. Do you know that loading up on carbs (moderately) is vital to your health too? Celebrate your achievement with a cheat day once a week. Give yourself some cred and something to look forward to every week. You totally deserve it! 

5. Stay inspired

Get inspired and follow health and wellness personalities

Why be a one-man show when there are plenty of babes out there going through the same program as you? Stay inspired and motivated by following health and wellness personalities. We currently love working out with Sydney Hill (@sweatwithsydd)
