imagesGBDUD2F6I Had A Few Moments
I had a few moments between training clients yesterday so I sat outside by the pool to enjoy the sun.
Shortly after taking a moment, a 30 Days to Lean Member stops by and we chat.
This is What He Said
“After 60 days of being on your plan my wife and I feel great. We have changed our habits and changed our lives. The best part is, he said (and this is why I love what I do), is that I do not feel deprived. I eat. I look forward to eating. And I love the wholesome foods that we cook ourselves.”
In The Beginning of Change we all tend to get a little hyperactive for lack of a better word. We think things to ourselves like, ” I could never give up that sweet daily dessert at night or I can never give up that bread, or whatever it is that we tend to crave. I get it. Part of life is eating and eating things we love. Remember I am Italian and food is so so importante!
What Happened?
Here’ the thing, this member who lost 18 pounds was able to motivate himself long enough so that his body chemistry actually changed. What happened to the cravings? After 10 days of eating only from the plan he, like many of the other successful members started noticing a waning desire for sugar whether in the form of simple or complex sugars ( candy bar or breads as examples).
I have simplified this to illustrate the point that in order for real weight loss to take hold one must accept a certain amount of discomfort initially. But in reality, because this member and his wife were able to eat so many other foods with abundance, they began the process of bringing health back to their bodies. The hormonal chemistry changed and life got better: better sleep, better energy, better health numbers, better disposition, and a more content happy lifestyle while still enjoying great foods and parties!
What You Gotta Know
1. Food Choice Matters!
