Been to a grocery store lately?
Does your mouth start to water when you pass aisle after aisle of....
-Potato chips
-Pop tarts
-Ice cream
-Cookies
-Fresh baked pastries
-Cakes
-Carbonated beverages
-Syrups with high fructose corn syrup
Mmmmm...I can almost taste it right here from my computer.
How does that fit into your fitness plan, or your weight loss diet plan?
Gooey chocolate chip cookies, devil's food cakes, ultra high sugar cereals...all washed down with your favorite carbonated beverage.
Uh oh, there goes your weight loss diet plan.
Ok, I'm getting off track here....and so is your fitness plan.
Whatever.
Let's focus and regroup.
Here's a challenge for you (pay attention, this is a good start to a weight loss diet plan)...
Next time you go to the grocery store, put 10 healthy things that will help achieve your overall fitness plan and your weight loss diet plan in your cart before you put 1 unhealthy thing.
Yep, you heard right.
It's not only a challenge, but this should be the way (now and always) you grocery shop for you and your family.
For every 10 things for your fitness plan....you are allowed 1 "treat".
So, for example...you could put things in your cart like:
-Oatmeal
-Assorted fruits and vegetables
-Lean meats (chicken, beef, some kinds of fish, etc.)
-Whole grains
-Low fat yogurt (no sugar added)
Then.....after 10 of these items that help you achieve your weight loss diet plan....you can go ahead and "treat" yourself to one of those high calorie, "fat in the box" cookies.......if you so desire.
But here's a little secret...
A shocking, little-known, secret that will keep you on your fitness plan like glue...
You think you can handle it?
Ok, here goes...
After you start CONSISTENTLY buying and eating healthier foods...you will no longer be interested in those "treats"...which will eventually do nothing but make you feel bad...but you WILL BE HAPPY about your newly found self-esteem, and your body will be very thankful...it may sound hard to believe right now...but it's true....very true.
Why?
Because you are CONSISTENTLY conditioning yourself to eat healthier foods and following your fitness plan and staying on top of your weight loss diet plan...and your body is responding to it...
Better yet, your body is EXPECTING it.
I remember when I was back in college and when I was eating very healthy and working out like a champ, I was following my fitness plan to a "T"...
I was doing this very consistently for a good while...then, one night I went out to dinner with some friends.
Didn't really think about how I had been eating lately (very healthy) and ordered myself a nice juicy, fatty hamburger and fries.
Well, about a ½ hour later, after my stomach kept asking me "What in the world is this in here?"...I became very familiar with the bathroom for a little while.
Onward.
Ok, I didn't tell you that story to make you scared of eating hamburgers, or say that you can never, ever, ever eat anything you want or crave...
But be smart.
Use your common sense.
Follow your fitness plan.
Stay on your weight loss diet plan.
Eating Twinkies will never help you lose the fat off your body.
Neither will the candy bars.
Or the....
Well, you get the picture.
So...realize that it all STARTS at your local grocer.
And if you follow my advice, you can make sure it doesn't END on your waistline.
I'll talk to you soon.
