Many people get discouraged easily when it comes to fitness, nutrition, dieting, and weight loss, as well as many other topics in life.
You are going to have good days and bad days, during the pursuit of any goal.
In relation to nutrition and dieting, I always teach the following mantra:
One bad meal doesn’t ruin the day. One bad day doesn’t ruin the week. One bad week doesn’t ruin the month, and so on.
If you fall down, slip up, or backslide. Pick yourself up, plant your feet and step forward.
As long as you keep moving forward towards your goal, you will be ok.
Health, fitness, and nutrition are part of a lifelong journey and lifestyle.
No short term plan will ever be the golden egg.
There are no shortcuts.
Never derail your plan because of one minor setback.
Think of the long term plan and goal.
Mindset is the critical cornerstone.
You are your biggest adversary or asset.
Believe in yourself and press on with the attack towards your goal.
And put some creatine monohydrate in your coffee. That helps too.
