Less is More

Hello Dear One!

Have you ever colored outside of the lines from the planned path you were on the achieve your weight loss (or otherwise) goal – to then GO OFF THE WAGON?

Meaning have you ever thrown in the towel of traveling on the trajectory you were on just a scant amount of time before because of a couple missteps?

Or even ONE!?!!

What I’d love to share and instill is, “SOME”, thinking, and most importantly the fact that LESS IS MORE in this department.

I’d like to share how LESS is not only possible, but that LESS also makes LIVING POSSIBLE while still moving closer to your goals.

#1. HOW TO DO 

This can happen when we’re being CONSCIOUS with our choices WHILE still Having our Cake & Eating it Too AND getting FULL.

Some great ways to have LESS (carbs, sweets, booze) is to start your meal/event with Apple Cider Vinegar and Stevia in water.  This will help your blood sugar levels, insulin sensitivity, as well as take the edge off your hunger slightly.

If at a restaurant DON’T START with BREAD.

EAT BREAD LAST.

Eat it when you’re full/mostly full which will help you to not eat as much.

Have a salad at the start of your meal, and either have a dressing with vinegar or something undeniably rich and filling (blue cheese anyone?) and NOT sugary!

PRIORITIZE PROTEIN in your meal.

If you don’t get enough of the meaty stuff you’ll STILL BE HUNGRY.

Make a point to have a substantial amount of flesh in your appetizers/entree as it can be SO EASY to keep chowing down on carbs.

Have dessert if you want it, and ideally share.

Decaf coffee is also a great way to end a meal, and a little half and half can additionally help you with feeling pleasantly full.

IF you’re drinking – TAKE YOUR TIME.

LESS IS MORE, and the more slowly you consume your beverage the LESS you’ll more than likely have.

When selecting – dry champagne/sparkling wine and heavily distilled clear spirits with calorie free mixers would be best.

Drink this way to FEEL THE MOST from your beverage FAST, and not need to guzzle vats in order to attain a pleasant buzz.

If you’re going out/socializing loads – opting out of drinking at times will be helpful for your waistline effort as fat metabolism is put on hold until alcohol is processed by the liver.

I encourage my Fat Burners to aim to drink once a week (LESS IS MORE) and at their carb feast meal.

#2: HOW TO THINK 

My brother once made the statement that we’re always either gaining or losing weight.

Constantly.

This moment is not forever – in the negative OR positive.

So regardless of what just happened, we have another opportunity in each moment to do something DELIBERATE and DIFFERENT.

Take advantage of this.

If you still want what you want – last week’s week long birthday celebration with cocktails, cookies, pizza, indulgent meals out and lots of CAKE doesn’t ACTUALLY matter TODAY.

Just get back on the horse so that you never feel like you have to make a choice between special events, your favorite foods, impromptu parties, and less than waistline friendly fare.

It honestly doesn’t matter.

What matters is what you want and making a choice to have it again. 

Today.

And the truth is the more you see how you can still incorporate all the fun social offerings that you MIGHT want at this moment, and the choice to keep putting one foot in front of the other to have more of what you want – you will.

This behavior will STOP DELAYING YOUR SUCCESS, as it’s the LONG deviations that really mess with progress.

And the brief visits to Party Central that do NOT.

If you’d like to check out a program that not only has DELIBERATE meals of more carbs and calories to AID in the weight loss effort, and well as support with understanding how to LIVE WELL and not feel deprived while still moving towards your weight loss goal – please check out Fat Burning PRO (self study) or Fat Burning Mastery (more one on one attention).

To getting you clearer on how the body works, and how to make it work for you.
