Is Your Sweet Tooth Sabotaging Your Progress?

Does your sweet tooth make it hard to stay on track?

You eat healthy for most meals, but when that candy bar comes across your desk you can’t say no?

My best advice?

HAVE IT!

ONE SERVING, or HALF.

And again the day after that and the day after that too!

The concept is this:
1. I can pretty much guarantee you, that you’ll get sick of that candy bar.
2. You need to get out of the ALL OR NOTHING mindset. It’s not healthy, and you’re not going make your body healthy by being in it.

When you have a cookie or something “off plan” and immediately go well I blew it, I might as well eat the whole box – that can not only ruin a day, but AN ENTIRE WEEK!

And the cookie didn’t do either, YOUR MINDSET DID!

But if you know you can have a cookie tomorrow too (guilt free) – and you make the conscious decision to have ONE OR TWO cookies and be done – not only are you going to feel better afterward, but this turns it into less of a “last stand” than just actually enjoying something without the guilt that follows.

As you continue your journey you may find that you want less of the things that don’t serve you or your goals of ultimate health – and that’s great too but if you find yourself in that cycle, start to examine that a little deeper.

I’ll be honest – I try to keep my food quality, even when it comes to treats so you won’t find me eating snickers or m&m’s on a regular basis – but you better believe I’m not passing up homemade chocolate chip cookies or ice cream when I have the chance.

It’s about finding what works for YOU – but I know from 10 years of coaching experience, that RESTRICTING THINGS YOU ENJOY DOESN’T WORK FOR ANYONE.

COMMENT BELOW!!
If you’ve found yourself in this cycle, what is your weakness?

Have you found a method that works to beat it?
