HOW TO START Your Fitness Journey In 2024 Working Out Eating Healthier Healthy Sustainable Lifestyle

[@simplykiaya]

For some reason I always hate to start slow 😭 I am typically all or nothing but I started slow this time around and I have been able to be more consistent! Who would’ve thought 😂

[@morgreeen]

Love this for you!!! 👏🏼👏🏼 it’s hard, totally get what you mean

[@Angryoyster]

I get stressed thinking about starting at a gym. But my mum got me into going to my local community centre walking track. Slowly but surely I’m getting more and more brave to work out, not just work about but work out in public. It was like $25 for the year to use the only walking track. So it’s low stakes if I fall off, not as scary as it’s just walking, and I can do it in the freezing winter.

[@kellyhopchin2922]

Even that's huge step, that's so awesome for you! Wish you all the luck with your confidence

[@morgreeen]

So proud of you for taking steps 👏🏼 it’s not easy but even like you said, you’re getting more and more brave! Wishing you the best

[@jadeypeach]

I had horrid anxiety about the gym. I even had a small panic attack in the car when my partner was driving me there for the first time but after the first session I realised I LOVED it. At first, I went with my partner who’s a bodybuilder so knew what he was doing. Now I go while he’s at work and the kids are at school. I start with a little cardio, then do machines but I’ve recently started to lift weights too. I was so scared about people looking at me and I would always be looking around and no one ever glanced my way. I always thought people were lying when they’d say the gym helps mental health but now I can honestly say, as someone with borderline personality disorder and ptsd, the gym is great for my mental health!

[@ednamartinez6129]

I found a all women gym 😭💞 and I’m so grateful because I have anxiety being near men lol. I feel it’s a great start for now. I’ll go to another gym later on.

[@eljofrva]

I wish that there was an all female gym in the city I am in! I hate going to the gym and being stared at by these ridiculous gym bros, like, can I exist in peace!?

[@milamasaa]

Lol i did the same thing. Once we are more comfortable with the gym equipment and have more experience, we can go to a coed gym.

[@OvrStim1]

@@eljofrvafr they all have staring problems for what??? It makes me so uncomfortable

[@MaddieJay]

One thing that stood out to me was the fact it takes your body a long time to see the physical progress. And the same goes when you have a “cheat meal” or enjoy a dessert or maybe a eat a bit more then you wanted one day or miss a work out or two, those one offs will NOT RUIN your progress. Your body can adapt and if you stray away from your plan once in a while will not undo everything you’ve worked for :)

[@morgreeen]

YES love this!!!! Exactly 🫶🏼

[@kerripomerleau6810]

I am learning how important sleep is. I used to have such bad insomnia because I was working shift work and it messed with my sleep schedule so bad. I would try to sleep but would never feel rested. I would take anything and everything I could to try to get some sleep, and it stopped working because my body got used to it. Now that I started my new job, Im in bed by 8 every night but I'm up at 5 (I set an alarm for 6) but still manage to wake up before and I feel more rested. I also don't take sleeping aids anymore. Even on my days off Im up at 5. It's an amazing feeling.

[@morgreeen]

I can’t imagine how difficult especially when it’s not your fault you’re on a different schedule!! So happy with where you are now. It really makes the biggest difference & is crucial to our overall health 👏🏼

[@mrsdiaz614]

I just found your channel and I LOVE how real you are! I’m a 32yr old stay at home mom of 3. I grew up being super skinny, when I was 21 I weighed 105lbs (5’3), but when I had my first kid I gained 50lbs. With my last child I weighed 200lbs when I gave birth in 2018. I’m currently at 163lbs. I’ve been stuck at 150-170lbs for years!!! This year all my kids are in school and I decided this is the time for me to do something for myself. I’m starting slow, going for a walk every day and doing some workouts, also started eating healthier and cutting out my sweets cravings and alcohol. A good alternative for those when I’m craving it is a mocktail and quest makes really yummy peanut butter cups that don’t have a lot of sugar or carbs.

[@pgibby25]

Okay this is crazy cause it sounds just like me! I’m 5’2 and stuck between 150-160. Stay at home mom of 3. Was 110lbs in high school and gained all my weight during the pandemic. All my kids are in school now so I’m trying to get back down to a healthy weight since I’m done having kids! Cheers to you girl! You can do it! 🎉

[@texasforever9009]

Twinning…or tripletling? 5’2”, 102 my senior year in high school. I’m 35 now, 3 boys ages 2.5-7. I am currently 134lbs but gained 60-80lbs during each pregnancy. I used WW to lose weight after each baby successfully (then immediately got knocked up again when I was at goal weight haha). Anyways, I’m working towards 115-120 now. I am successfully using WW for my calorie deficit and have been finally working out consistently for 3 weeks now. One 30 mins incline walking and one 30 mins strength training each day with dumbbells/body weight. One rest day per week. How are yall doing with progress?

[@patriciasmith9132]

This is me 5.2 stuck at 160lbs . Previous up until the pandemic always been between 110lb-120lb even after pregnancy. I’ve alway been pretty physically active but generally eaten what I want . I think hitting mid 30s I need to accept my metabolism is slowing down 😢 and I need to be more mindful what I put in my body

[@imperialchalice]

Not even two min in and this is the MOST helpful video on this subject. ❤

[@AREEYAWNA]

Group fitness helped me get into working out, helped me learn form, and got me comfy in the gym. I’m almost ready to branch out on my own and create my own gym plan/split. I never thought I would be here and I am so happy I just got started.

[@morgreeen]

I love that so much!!! So happy for you. Hope you’re proud, it’s not easy!

[@nissaini2104]

Ive seen hundreds if not thousends of weightloss video’s over the years. Never has a video been this helpfull. I even started taking notes, soo big thank you❤

[@dianavanwinkle2299]

Firstly, I love when you say, “that’s okay”. 10/10 Also, I’m in the process of getting my BS in Nutrition and Dietetics and your advice to add whole foods instead of cutting “bad” foods is exactly what we learn in some classes. Thanks so much for sharing this information!

[@mostlymicahh]

i’ve been off and on with my fitness journey and aiming to have a good relationship with food (which i still struggle with) and have recently gotten back into it. I’ve been consistent this past week and am actually starting to have fun with it and have found that i am a pilates girly!!

[@stephanysandoval5040]

Girl yes! Everything you said is SOO helpful and true. Im good with everything except my sleeping. I sleep 5 hours everyday. I cannot sleep before 2am and this sucks since I have an 8am job. Ever since middle school I would have all nighters and then go to school, so now my sleeping is just the absolute worse.

[@MamaSwole]

Girl this is a great video, I wish I would’ve had it when I first started, it would’ve saved me so much trouble😂

[@morgreeen]

Thank youuuu 😊

[@mzy9173]

Im so lost and everytime i look in the mirror im grtting bigger and bigger. Its horrible feeling like i have lost control. Going to try and soak this in and get motivated

I've struggled with starting my fitness journey multiple times because I get way too discouraged and then I stop working out. I'm currently on a new fitness journey and by watching your video helped me realize a lot of things. Especially everything takes time and as long as I'm continuous I can complete my goal of losing weight. Thank you for your video, keep doing you!!!!!! Day 5 of my new fitness journey.

[@AndreaLaura85]

All wonderful tips for anyone wanting to improve their health. I enjoy listening to your videos like this most because it's just a great reminder for me. Consistency is the biggest struggle but the longer you practice the healthier habits, the easier it gets. Great video.

[@morgreeen]

Exactly!!!! 👏🏼👏🏼 wishing you the best

[@KiIlJ0yy]

I restarted my fitness journey after falling off and im def trying to be a early morning girly. This vid motivated me to start trying new things (im picky asf) and try to enjoy more foods that are beneficial to me and better for my body so this genuinely inspired me to be almost 100% and work towards having a better diet and feeding myself the food my body needs to grow!! Ur gorgeous btw

[@samthesteamboat]

this video came at the perfect time. I've been trying to make healthier choices for a few weeks and it's getting really overwhelming. thanks for the reminder that I can do it!!!! ❤

Wishing you all the best 💗

[@jmeee]

Even as someone who started their fitness journey about a year ago, these are such important reminders! Keep it simple and keep it consistent. Thanks Morgan!

[@morgreeen]

Glad you agree 👏🏼 thanks for watching!!

[@chloenicoleadon23]

Fitness and nutrition is what I love so much !!! Thanks for talking and sharing your thoughts, experiences, and insights. I love your videos! Keep up the great work 💪🏽. Some tips I have learned throughout the years: 1. Love yourself and do things that make you happy! 2. Find/test out different activities, like weightlifting, working out different muscle groups, try the bike or any other form of cardio. My personal favorite is jumping rope, weightlifting, doing ab workouts, push-ups, and taking my pup for walks ! 3. Cook your favorite foods, try different methods, have fun in the kitchen. Enjoy life! Make sure you are getting in nutrients. Drink water 💦 4. Take care of yourself and your loved ones. This is a journey that will make your life truly better. Every day is a gift. Nobody is perfect !! Especially because everyone has their own lives. Let’s make it count !

Thank you for this, I used to be a weightlifter religiously then I got an injury and felt stuck. I didn’t even consider other methods like swimming or Pilates. This helped me so much ❤

[@ysavelshearrow9509]

Thank you for this video! I was on top on working out and things happened in my life with divorce and the passing of my brother. I haven’t been motivated and just watching this I will be doing my research. Thank you Morgan!!

[@morgreeen]

I am so sorry to hear that and hope you’re doing okay. Wishing you the best with everything

[@KathrynSnyder]

I have no self control and have been more successful when I do completely cut out the things I tend to over indulge in vs trying to find a balance with them.

[@morgreeen]

Oh wow, good for you! If that’s what works long term for you I’m happy you have been able to find that solution! Yay!

[@damnitaintright]

same! i know that its hard but if I let myself to 'find a balance' with the things i want to cut out (for example lets say i would tell myself 'ok you can have sweets once a week") i would completely fail my willpower and try to convice myself that nothing would happen if i break my promise with myself :D thats why its either cutting out things completely or constant fights with myself

[@morgreeen]

Love the self awareness, everybody is different. Trial & error is everything 🫶🏼 happy for you

[@Nur.2001]

Some good advice i heard was dont have a 'cheat meal' to early on in your life style change as it can derail you and youll give up. Also consistency is key.

[@KatiaHernas]

This is actually a really helpful video. Most of the videos I see around this topic are from girls that i feel like don’t understand how people can struggle to begin a healthier lifestyle. It’s not always as simple as just get up and go, there are so many various factors that go into just thinking about the first step. As someone who lives an active lifestyle, and is constantly trying to find a balance, this is the exact advice and reminders I need to hear. Well thought out video!!! ❤

Day #20 Calorie Deficit approx 1600 joined boxing 3 days a week 2 hour classes and 2 days walking 45 min plus no booze vegan (17years) My weight went up...I am so discouraged. 5'6 216lbs 43 yrs old I understand many factors ie, swelling, building muscle, water retention, pms but when does it start paying off?

[@tmgreenawalt9554]

When I started exercise plan..I seen a video about just getting scale that shows BMI and water weight. Because we do fluctuate day to day especially when curting calories and exercise more. This helped so much. I did gain in the beginning my clothes were tight, thats because muscle was building under that fluffy layer...but as ling as the BMI number was going down I knew I was on the right track. After 4 weeks , my clothes started to fit different 6 weeks everyone noticed..keep it up. You will be hungrier protein makes you feel fuller longer and feeds those muscles.
