Don't Jump!

Recently I've received emails of people telling me what they've been eating and I would like to come out now and share with you something.

Often people lose focus and get off track with their weight loss programs because they hit a minor bump on their road to success. Sometimes it can be a death in the family, trouble in paradise(not applicable to everyone), stress at work, making poor food choices, etc, etc.....

Many people will dive head first back into their old habits of eating the sweets, and just filling their bodies with processed food that's not good for them when they're in a stressful situation. And let's face it, things happen. Life is one HUGE rollercoaster and you're not going to eat well every single time. I'm here to tell you that's OK!

Hence my title Don't Jump. Many people will get off the bus when they eat one bad meal and it should not be the case at all. Instead of trying to be perfect it's best you create a meal plan, a lifestyle that has variety but also moderation. Your goal should be to eat well 80% of the time. Yes that's it.

If you eat a bad meal, don't stress over it, jump back on board and make sure your next meal is a good one. Consistency over time will prevail I kid you not.

The next time you eat something bad, get rid of the guilt, and jump back on ship. If I told you that when you played the lotto you had a 80% chance of winning would you play?

Well, when it comes to eating take your chances and make sure that 80% you're eating what you're suppose and you will increase your odds of winning the body of your dreams.

Enjoy your weekend! =)
