Guidelines for a healthy Budget and the healthy way of life

Follow these rules if you are a fixture in the gym and diet store

1 Think first, pay later
"One of the mistakes that people make is thinking, If I buy this, so I'll use it,", says Gretchen Rubin, author of The Happiness Project. "He must realize that buying something is not the same thing as use it." Instead, she says, be sure that your purchases reflect your values or your healthy past behavior. If you like a head-clearing registration classes to indoor surfing may not run for you (even if it is super trend at the moment). Or if you eat tons of vegetables, but never cook at home, consider whether, really, you will benefit from this service of delivery of the products.

2 Effectively deploy your friends
If you invite a friend to join you on the slopes in morning or in a company 'bringing lunch to work', the result is the same: there is someone waiting for you to appear. Make you good on the commitment or let them fall. "You cannot underestimate the value of social interaction when it comes to make the most of your healthcare dollars," said Ryan Howell, Associate Professor of psychology at San Francisco State University. That the means of social pressure keep you in your workout or make your own lunch, no matter how you drag - that keeps the cost of the room gym or grocery store to go to waste.

3. Try before you buy
Test the front drives the loading of your credit with monthly fitness card passes. A free option is YouTube, which is packed full of exercise classes, both full length and versions of teaser. You want to see one of these cardio-ballet course, that everyone is talking about? Do it online and save $35. Too embarrassed to put your two left feet in Zumba? Give it a try at home first. For versions more than high quality, you can buy a workout DVD for less than $20. (You can also borrow from the free library!)

4 Save
Keep a journal of your progress is a way to stay on track with fitness or power schemes, but also, it helps you to save money. You will be able to see where your money was put to the best use. You can easily identify the value of this monthly pass of yoga, for example: If you dropped $ 150 on it, but went to only four classes, you must pay $ 15 drop-in fee instead. Or if you find that you ate one of Greek yogurt in 12 - Pack you have purchased, it may be time to find a new (and perhaps cheaper) snack.
