Shows an image of an overweight person shoving french fries in their mouth and says: "I'd be Skinny, But I like to Eat"
Or
Shows an image of an over weight person drinking soda and says: "I thought about Going to the Gym today, But on the way I stopped to Grab a coke, and figured what's the point."
Another one, which is the one that prompted me to write this Blog post, went something like this:
again an overweight mom was pictured, with a thoughtful look and a thought bubble above her head read "I would like to be Fit, But I LIKE Food More"
I am Sad that People think that getting health means they have to Starve or Go With OUT foods they enjoy in order to be FIT.
For so many years society has pushed the DIET "Eat strange foods you would never normally eat for 2-3 weeks, and drop 10lbs" or the Detox "Only Drink apple Juice for 3 days" that People are simple confused and scared to begin their health journey for fear it would:
Be awful - tasty nasty, feel hungry all the time, etc...
Won't last - even if you release 10lbs during those 3 weeks it always comes back
Be too inconvenient - way to much planning prepping and going out of their way to make it work
GUESS WHAT?!?!?
Beachbody does NOT believe in that either, because NON of those things do work, long term.
I as a Beachbody Coach have been taught That rather than letting FOOD Master YOU, You Learn How to Master the Food, and make it Fuel your Body.
It may seem scary and different at first, but the wonderful thing about having a Personal Beachbody Coach "ME" is that I link arms with you and assist you along until you feel you can do it on your own. I do not Ever expect you to just figure it out on your own, or fend for yourself. I walk you through it, step by step, teaching you how to follow the 80/20 Rule, which states:
Eat Healthy/ Clean 80% of the Time so you can Indulge on the foods you want 20% of the Time!!!
So, Yes that means that we can still enjoy:
A slice of cheese cake smothered in caramel
A Margarita
A Plate of Nachos
A Dinner out of Fried food
A Milk shake
and the list goes on.....
We learn how to USE food to nourish our bodies, and give them the energy, they need to preform all that's required of them.
I also have Coaches on my personal team that battle with food addictions (They are real) and YET they have learned to Master Food and not It Master Them, So Can YOU!
If you have wanted to Know how to MASTER FOOD, but aren't sure where to start, or have started and stopped over and over again because you don't have the support or encouragement to keep going, Reach out to me, and I would be honored to assist you, and get you started on your way to Health!!!!
I want to Conclude with YES, "Skinny People" Also like to EAT, and NO we do not Starve ourselves or eat like birds. SO Please Stop using the excuse that you would like to Look Thinner BUT you Like your Food too much. It's Totally Just an Excuse!
