Good morning ~Contact.FirstName~,
What do you think I'm talking about?
Carbs?
Exercise?
Supplements?
Fasting?
Protein?
They all are factors but no
WEEKENDS
I see so many slimmers get absolutely nowhere with their weight loss efforts because they blow it every weekend.
Make progress in the week but as soon as it gets to Thursday night/Friday the flood gates open.
I admit it's tough on weekends, there's so much more going on socially at weekends usually plus you have a lot more time, routine goes and it can be a much more difficult time to keep to your usual routine.
I struggle myself to get it right on weekends and it annoys the hell out of me!
Getting to Sunday night and thinking 'I've gone overboard AGAIN!'
Should you treat the weekend the same as the week?
There's no right or wrong answer here, some people successfully do this other need a few treats (as it makes them better in the week).
That's my approach, keep it controlled in the week and then a few treats on the weekend.
The best thing you need to do to get your weekends right is PLAN it.
Don't lose that control, plan in treats, plan in a few drinks, a dessert or whatever you fancy but decide what you're having it and enjoy it.
Friday-Sunday most will have 9 meals. Still try and make 6-8 as healthy as possible.
Have a nice 'treat meal/drink/dessert/snack' and move on.
There's nothing worse than feeling sick and guilty every single week because you've had too much.
Regain control, plan ahead and you will be amazed how much quicker you'll get results when you don't keep having to start again every Monday.
Have an awesome day,
Jamie
PS I almost hate saying you need a treat on a weekend which suggests you're starving yourself or eating boring in the week. You shouldn't, I love my food in the week and have things like Greek yoghurt and fruit, eggs and bacon, chicken salads, stir frys, salmon and jacket potatoes, currys.
Definitely not rabbit food, really these foods are the treats. You feel much better after them.
