I went to dinner tonight with friends and knew my choices were going to not be my normal healthier choices

I accepted it

I didn’t eat less all day on purpose to “save for that meal”

I didn’t feel bad or guilty for eating food out of my normal realm

I don’t feel the need to workout extra tomorrow to work off what I ate

I just ate the food and enjoyed it

It’s one meal will not undo all of my hard work

It took many years to get to the worst place I was in, so one less than stellar meal (health wise) won’t make break anything

I think that once you get into a better relationship with food you can stop calling it a diet and realize this is a way of life

A way of balance

This is the way I want to continue my journey

No more restricting foods, no more intense challenges that leave me feeling empty after and sorry they aren’t sustainable afterwards. I’ve learned time and time again

There’s no quick fix to getting healthy

Figure out what works for you and try to be consistent with it

Trust me, you’re hearing it from a woman who has tried it ALL

Stay smart this holiday season, one or two “bad meals” are okay, the key is self control to not go overboard

If you find yourself struggling or stuck, reach out, you’re not alone
