Fit Notes From Nancy 
I do a lot of one on one appointments here at the Oaks. If I had a dime for every time I tell a client something in regard to their exercise and eating habits, and they said, "I know that", I'd be rich!
 
It turns out that there are 3 layers of information.
Layer 1 is KNOWLEDGE. You learn something and KNOW it.
Layer 2 is UNDERSTANDING. You GET what you KNOW. 
Layer 3 is WISDOM. You KNOW it, GET it, and DO it!

Wisdom is supreme because it applies what we know.
What's the Nike slogan? JUST DO IT!
 
So today, right away, do a quick self survey on what you know.
Come on. You KNOW a lot about food, right? Good carbs/Bad carbs. Good fat/Bad fat. How much is too much? THe need for fiber, water, fresh stuff...So what needs a little application in your life? Maybe journal your food choices for a week and see where the weak link is.
Maybe cut everything back by 25-30% and see what happens. Maybe slow down on sweets and/or alcohol. You know the drill, so take what you know and be WISE and DO!
 
How about exercise? You know you feel better when you do it,that's a pretty good pay off right there. How about all of the other health benefits? Write them down. You know this stuff! Take a second right now. Draw in a deep breath and slowly release it. Again. Now slowly move your head side to side to release your neck. Roll your shoulders. See? Don't you feel better already just doing it?
 
A little application is worth WAY more than a lot of unused information, so before you amass any more facts, use the ones you have! At the end of the day,
 
 It's NOT what you KNOW,
 
It's what you DO!
 Sincerely,
