The One-Day Way by Chantel Hobbs - Book Review





Chantel Hobbs, wife, mother, motivational speaker and personal trainer is the author of the latest book I have read to review, The One-Day Way. I was very excited to receive this book as I, myself, have recently begun a journey to health and fitness.

If fad diets and complicated weight-loss strategies have left you feeling as if you will never be able to lose weight and get fit, The One-Day Way is a must read. Forget about expensive exercise equipment, restrictive diets that only allow certain types of foods while severely restricting others. Leave all your past diet failures behind and learn The One-Day Way.

In The One-Day Way, Chantel Hobbs teaches you to change your mind-set from concentrating on and being overwhelmed by huge, seemingly unattainable goals to focusing on one day at a time. By doing this, you will find that your journey to becoming a healthier and happier person is much, much easier.

Over the last week, I have practiced learning The One-Day Way in my own fitness journey. By focusing on only one day at a time, not worrying about yesterday and viewing tomorrow as another beginning, I have found that sticking to my diet and exercise regimen has become much easier and more fulfilling. Instead of having weeks, months or years of future goals hanging over my head, I concentrate only on the 24 hour period I am in and strive to become healthier today than I was yesterday.

In The One-Day Way, Chantel provides you with tools to help you such as example meal plans that are easily prepared by anyone, 31 strength training exercises which can be done at home (with photos), cardio suggestions, success stories and more.

By changing your thinking you can change your life. I've lost two pounds in my first week following The One-Day Way and have had much less stress and anxiety concerning diet and exercise. I highly recommend The One-Day Way to anyone who is struggling to become a healthier, happier person in a more positive, productive way.

I received this book for free from WaterBrook Multnomah Publishing Group for this review.
