2 Steps, and 2 Really Smart Tips for Creating Healthy Eating Habits That Last
Really smart to nail these two down before your next “diet” or healthy eating program:
Purpose is when you know why you do what you do. That thing that gets you out of bed in the morning and keeps you up late at night. The thing that has others turn their head when you walk in the room, or stop to ask you a question because they just want to be around you.
- Purpose is sexy
- Purpose is the fuel that will drive success in every area of life, not just healthy eating (why do you want this?)
- Purpose defies odds
- Purpose is addictive-forming
Preparation is the tool you will use to win every game you ever hope to win.
- Prepare ahead, do the work upfront, to create lasting success
- Preparation requires slowing down — most will not slow down long enough to add this in, but it is essential
- Preparation is non-negotiable to produce lasting results
Two really smart tips to easily add in to your plan for getting healthy and warding off “the craving” when it hits are
- Always have a green apple handy — it will save you every time. In your car. In your office. In your brief case or handbag. Always. And when a craving rises, make a commitment to eat that apple first and then decide after you eat that apple if you still need whatever craving was about to take you down. Funny thing is, that green apple will save you every time!
- Drink green juice or a green smoothie every morning and eat a big salad as one of your meals every single day. Just by doing this alone you’ve increased your “raw” food intake up to 66%. Since raw food has the most vital, life-force nutrition and is loaded with the enzymes we need to digest our food, you are well on your way to up-leveling your health!
