often throw routines into disarray. More often than not, the lifestyle and well-being of an interim consultant takes a back seat as they fling themselves into a new role, new routine, demanding clients, and actually just getting on with the job. We consulted <a href=\"https:\/\/www.linkedin.com\/in\/lisa-ali-3a1aa18\/\">Lisa Ali<\/a>, Body Transformation Coach specialising in professional interim consultants. Lisa who was a successful interim project and programme manager explains, \u201cIt took me a long time to realise, that creating some simple routines alongside the routine of work could bring great benefits to my weight, my overall health and my energy levels.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Here Lisa outlines three simple things you can do (and start today even!) to help with your weight loss, energy levels and overall health.<\/p>\n<h3><span style=\"color: #505d7a;\"><b style=\"color: #505d7a;\">1. Exercise <\/b><span style=\"color: #505d7a;\"><b>doesn&#8217;t<\/b><\/span><b style=\"color: #505d7a;\">\u00a0have to mean the gym<\/b><\/span><\/h3>\n<p>The last thing most people want to do is to finish work and then spend an hour on the treadmill.\u00a0 Exercise can be anything you like, even walking a bit more will help, but one thing Lisa suggests time-strapped people do is a little bit of High Intensity Interval Training (HIIT). Lisa explains, \u201cThis may sound scary, but the best thing about HIIT is that you work at <em>your<\/em> maximum effort \u2013 no one else\u2019s!\u201d.\u00a0 If you can commit 20 minutes three times a week, HIIT will start to bring great benefits.<\/p>\n<p>For example, you could warm up for minimum of 3 minutes, then do sprints on the spot (think Usain Bolt on the spot, arms pumping) for 30 seconds work, then 1 minute rest. Repeat 6 times, cool down and stretch, and you\u2019ve just completed a very effective exercise.<\/p>\n<h3><span style=\"color: #505d7a;\"><b style=\"color: #505d7a;\">2. Think ahead about food!<\/b><\/span><\/h3>\n<p>Most people get caught short with food and grab the first thing that comes to hand, particularly at lunch time \u2013 you\u2019re in the office, you can\u2019t get out.<\/p>\n<p>Take something in with you before you get in the office.\u00a0 Make sure you have veggies\/salad and a good source of protein (lean meats, fish, lentils pulses) with a good source of healthy fats (avocado, olive oil, nuts) and you\u2019ll feel fuller for longer.<\/p>\n<p>And even if you can only commit to a healthy breakfast and lunch, that gives you much more evening flexibility.<\/p>\n<h3><span style=\"color: #505d7a;\"><b style=\"color: #505d7a;\">3. Stress can hinder weight loss efforts<\/b><\/span><\/h3>\n<p>As many studies attest, stress can impact many areas, and the impact on the hormones that work together for fat loss can easily get out of kilter.<\/p>\n<p>One way to combat stress is to make sure you get a good 7-9 hours sleep.\u00a0 Switch off gadgets (stop phone fiddling) and make sure you get a decent night\u2019s sleep for optimal body recovery and health benefits.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.linkedin.com\/in\/lisa-ali-3a1aa18\/\">Lisa\u2019s<\/a> experience of turning around her health whilst still working in a pressurised business environment is great example and we hope these three tips will help with your own body transformations!<\/p>\n<\/div><div class=\"fusion-clearfix\"><\/div><\/div><\/div><div class=\"fusion-layout-column fusion_builder_column fusion-builder-column-2 fusion_builder_column_1_3 1_3 fusion-one-third fusion-column-first\" style=\"width:33.333333333333%;width:calc(33.333333333333% - ( ( 4% ) * 0.33333333333333 ) );margin-right: 4%;margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:20px;\"><div class=\"fusion-column-wrapper fusion-flex-column-wrapper-legacy\" style=\"background-position:left top;background-repeat:no-repeat;-webkit-background-size:cover;-moz-background-size:cover;-o-background-size:cover;background-size:cover;padding: 0px 0px 0px 0px;\"><span class=\" fusion-imageframe imageframe-none imageframe-2 hover-type-none\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"1000\" height=\"669\" title=\"lisaali\" src=\"https:\/\/www.b2econsulting.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/07\/lisaali.png\" class=\"img-responsive wp-image-5031\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.b2econsulting.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/07\/lisaali-200x134.png 200w, https:\/\/www.b2econsulting.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/07\/lisaali-400x268.png 400w, https:\/\/www.b2econsulting.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/07\/lisaali-600x401.png 600w, https:\/\/www.b2econsulting.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/07\/lisaali-800x535.png 800w, https:\/\/www.b2econsulting.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/07\/lisaali.png 1000w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 800px) 100vw, 400px\" \/><\/span><div class=\"fusion-clearfix\"><\/div><\/div><\/div><div class=\"fusion-layout-column fusion_builder_column fusion-builder-column-3 fusion_builder_column_2_3 2_3 fusion-two-third fusion-column-last\" style=\"width:66.666666666667%;width:calc(66.666666666667% - ( ( 4% ) * 0.66666666666667 ) );margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:20px;\"><div class=\"fusion-column-wrapper fusion-flex-column-wrapper-legacy\" style=\"background-position:left top;background-repeat:no-repeat;-webkit-background-size:cover;-moz-background-size:cover;-o-background-size:cover;background-size:cover;padding: 0px 0px 0px 0px;\"><div class=\"fusion-text fusion-text-2\" style=\"transform:translate3d(0,0,0);\"><blockquote>\n<p>About the contributor, Lisa Ali<\/p>\n<p>Lisa is a Body Transformation Coach who personally understands the life-style challenges that a successful interim career brings &#8211;
