weekend binge

So that happened.

Your weekend ended up being one long binge of too much food and drink, and now you feel terrible.

I’m not here to judge – just here to help you pick up the pieces and move on.

Use the following 3 steps to get right back on your feet, and back to eating and exercising right.

1. Draw a line in the sand. Decide here and now that your binge is over. Stop the self-destructive behavior and enlist the support from the important people in your life.

2. Remove the triggers from your home. Clean out the pantry, the freezer and the stash under your bed. Get these unhealthy foods out of your home and out of your way. See these items for what they really are—obstacles that prevent you from getting what you really want out of life.

3. Refocus your goals. Why were you eating healthy and exercising in the first place? Because you have goals. You have a vision of the healthy, fit body that you’re working to achieve. Focus your mind on your most desired goals and unleash your inner work ethic and determination.

It’s time for you to reap all the benefits of a fit and active lifestyle. Let’s go!
