vacations! We literally plan to break or diets and overeat. Myself included. Why?”
“Breaking the habit of viewing food as a reward is so hard, but I think it’s something worth striving for! We have to learn to focus on the experience! Vacation is about experiencing a new place with wonderful people. A birthday is about celebrating another blessed year on this earth!! A wedding is about celebrating the love two people who plan to spend life together!! If we learn to shift our focus to what the celebration is actually about, and enjoying the time with people we love, it becomes easier to maintain your eating habits and avoid overindulging!”
As far as what advice does she have for those who want to get started? She’s straight to the point:
“How many of us keep putting our weight loss off? Whether it’s ‘next Monday’ or ‘my 30th bday’ or ‘the Beyonce concert’ 😂 trust me, I get that one a lot. Nothing is wrong with having goal dates to encourage you through your journey, but we have a bad habit of using them as excuses, and telling ourselves we have more time. You know how it goes….’Oh, I still have 3 months, I can start next month and still lose.’ Stop putting off what needs to happen today! Besides, if you stay ready, you’ll never have to get ready!”
