Life is busy but we have to find ways to live our life while maintaining a healthy lifestyle. Work, school, Kids, vacations, Friends all are a part of our life. You can't avoid it and I don't think we want to, But fail proof your life. Always look at your goal and with each decision you choose think first is this choice going to help me obtain that goal or set me back and then go from there. If it is going to help you great! If it is going to set you back evaluate whether you are ok with that set back or not. If you are ok with it then choose it and move on. Its what we do most consistently that matters its not the one meal we ate to much at or the day we skipped a work out. Its what we did before that day and after that choice we made to do that.
Tips to fail proof your life.
1. Have a supply of healthy snacks in your car. So when you are busy running around and you get hungry you have something there that will keep you from stopping at McDonald's.
2. Have nutritional facts of your favorite places you stop at in your car when your on the go so that you can pull them out and make a better choice when you do eat out.
3. If someone asks you to go out to eat never say YOU DON'T CARE WHERE! You do care give them 3 suggestions of places you know there is something you enjoy and can eat.
4. Before going out look up the menu online and decide at home what you are going to eat before you even get there.
5.When going to a friends for dinner bring something! That way you know you can at least eat that.
6.Schedule your work outs! If you miss it find another time in that same day to do it.
7. Enjoy life! don't panic if you made a poor choice move on immediately and let it go.
I think busy is an understatement. I am so proud that you have been able to keep all your goals intact while balancing. I think that is the hardest part. Congrats to you!
