Don’t teach your kids bad behaviors like unhealthy eating

During the Ultimate Reset, I got so much energy from eating healthy all natural ingredients! I eliminated coffee and yet I got up earlier and with more energy! I gave up meat and am finding healthy alternatives for my proteins.

But when I finished the Ultimate Reset and started to treat myself out to dinner again, I quickly realized WHY we are all struggling with our weight! Do we really even know what healthy eating is anymore? I seriously as myself that question almost everyday!

Are you currently struggling to reach your goal body weight and fitness level? What is your biggest struggle, is it with your workouts or your diet?

For me, it’s always the diet. I can workout everyday, but if I get stuck with my diet the changes are super slow to happen!

I have mentioned I am on this 21 day journey with the Ultimate Reset/Cleanse. Well, you think cutting out all the meat, dairy and other stuff would be hard. In my day 1 video you think all the cooking would be tough. Or, maybe even just the thought of phase 2 and “detox” would be why I would dislike the Ultimate Reset.

NOPE! My reason for struggling with this program is it is making me look at ME! I have continually stated that this is a journey and I am learning about my habits. Can I deal with mindless nibbling, yes! I see it, I can break it and I can hold off. Will I carry this forward, absolutely!

What is so hard for me is the social habit I have with food! I find that SO MUCH of what I do revolves around food. I just turned down a very nice special dinner with close friends because I did not want to sit their and not enjoy good food and a glass of wine. Yes, I am committed to 21 days on this program, so I am skipping a nice meal with friends because of it. I am losing the social gathering of going out for dinner. Because, at this place being a vegan probably would not be very easy.
