28 Day Challenge Day 27.................


Well we are nearing the end of the challenge and I personally have learnt a lot of great things from it.
So to recap todays words of wisdom from Annette:

Two roads you can take

One of the most important messages you need to heed today is - if you fail to plan you plan to fail.

Giving up will only cause more weight gain and health concerns. Imagine just for a moment that you could see a picture of yourself at your ideal weight. How would you look? I bet you would be smiling from ear to ear and feeling very proud and happy. Let’s imagine right now that you are going to take the right road to success. As with a street map, you will need to get yourself a map of what you want to achieve so you know where you are going, how are you going to achieve this and how long will it take. A good idea when making goals is to set a time frame on the goal but be realistic. Sometimes when we take our eye off the target we get side tracked or hit a bump in the road, but it will only be a problem if you stop and don’t continue on the journey. Think about it - what must you do to make what you desire so much a reality:

1. Keep using your food diary and write everything down that you eat and how much you eat
2. Clean out your pantry and refrigerator so that when you are feeling hungry you won’t be tempted.
3. Have lots of healthy snacks and make recipes from my cookbooks so that you have tasty food you enjoy.
4. Focus on the positives. Forget about what are you missing out on i.e. pizza and a beer on Friday nights. Instead think about how good you are going to look and feel, if instead you make your own healthy pizza and a large salad and have a light beer instead. You won’t feel like you are missing out, guaranteed.
5. Don’t give up. No matter how bad your day or week has been, get back on track as soon as possible and keep going. If you never give up you will eventually get where you need to be.


Great advise!
