I recently returned from vacation and I definitely did some damage. LOL. I never really do"treat" meals (I don't like the word "cheat," because it insinuates that you are in the wrong and I believe it creates a distorted view of food)....Any-who, while I was gone, we ate at restaraunts everday and I tried to eat as healthy as I could. I still worked out consistently and took all my supplements, etc. But in that short amount of time, just taking a few days off from my schedule, eating habits, and regular patterns really messed with me both psychologically and physically.
This really got me thinking about people's habits and lifestyles, but also WHY it is so hard to change. Everyday, I encourage people to live healthier lives by eating the right food and exercising. But it is so much more than a habit. It is in the MIND, that is where the battle is. Above all you must DECIDE what you want and how far you are willing to go till you reach it.
Every thing you put in your mouth, every time you skip the gym, all the Reese's cups that magically found their way into your belly did so by your CHOOSING.
*The first step is believing that you power of your life and decisions. Everything else flows from that. You must say "yes' or "no" to everything that you do. What is your answer? And will your answer and actions get you to where you wish to be?
In love, Christ, and Health
