No matter how determined you are to exercise, sometimes a busy schedule just won’t allow you to fit in those important gym visits. HOWEVER, you can still lose weight even when you’re crunched for time. Here are a few tips:

  1. Eat smaller meals/fewer calories. You don’t have to have a fancy menu to lose weight. In fact, the foundation of weight loss is simply calories in vs. calories out. A daily calorie intake between 1200-1500 calories should give you the deficit needed to drop pounds, even when you can’t make it to the gym.
  2. Find other ways to get active. Even though you may not be able to take a spin class or hop on the treadmill, there are still ways you can burn calories within your everyday routine. From taking a quick stroll during your lunch break and choosing a parking space further away from your office building, look for ways to take more steps. Every bit of extra movement helps!
