Worried about what you eat?

Lighten up on yourself. Progress by definition means a gradual change. You won't wake up tomorrow with wash board abs and an underwear modeling contract so stop punching yourself in the neck every time you stand in the pantry and drool over the 'Chicken in a Biscuit' box.

The first thing you need to realize is, if you "go on a diet" you are almost guaranteed to fail. Getting a healthy body on the inside and out cannot be achieved on a "90 day/4 dress size" approach to eating right. 
You need to make complete and lasting changes. Start small and change slowly but change permanently.

A few rules to remember.

1. Starving yourself makes you fat. Eating less does not = smaller waist.
2. Carbs aren't bad for you. Moderation and restraint are the words for the day.
3. Stoking the fire = more heat. (Minnesota shout out!) Same principal for your metabolism. Feed the machine regularly to keep the engine working. This will aid in fat burning.
4. Do some research on what different foods do for the body. Eat those foods that do for you what your body needs.

Many different paths to follow when nutrition is a concern. I have followed nearly all of the diet fads at some point in the last 15 years and found great success in a few, no success in most and realization that the final answer has always been a lifestyle change and not a crash diet.

Most people don't know where to start.

Thats where I can help.

One more rep,

Cole
