How to stay on track at the weekend
Monday to Friday
You stay on track
Drop a few lbs
“It’s going great”
Only for the weekend to arrive…
And that ‘plan’ you had that worked so well during the week?
Goes out of the window.
I get it.
You want to enjoy yourself..
Meals out
See friends and family
And be a bit spontaneous with it..
But what if the reason the week works so well
Is because you have some kind of plan or routine?
So is the answer to plan your whole weekend?
Well, not quite..
But have SOME plan.
Even if that plan is to give yourself permission to eat what you want at the meal out Saturday
You see, you might not think that is a ‘plan’..
But you now have PERMISSION.
So rather than saying
“I will try and be good today..fingers crossed” (knowing you probably won’t say no if offered the pudding)
And then beating yourself up (which is exhausting)
“F it…I might as well start again on Monday”
^^ Which will write off every weekend…leaving you frustrated as ‘nothing seems to be working’
The NEW WAY?
Gets you back to plan on Sunday.
What would be different if you just got back to it on Sunday?
If you had 4 more ‘in control’ days a month?
That’s all for today.
Tomorrow, I will be writing about why we crave rubbish when we know that we need to eat better to feel better.
