The power of this moment
Are you still looking forward to the day that you’ll be lean and fit?
Do you tell yourself that you’ll start living healthy tomorrow? Or next
week?
After you’ve had just one more pizza dinner and
one more lazy day on the couch…
Then you’ll commit yourself to eating healthy and exercising daily,
right?
It’s time to realize that this way of thinking is a sneaky little trap. One
that has fooled all of us at some point.
You see, when you put off healthy living to some designated day in the
future, you’re putting the responsibility of action on your future self.
Tricky, since your future self doesn’t even exist yet.
Only you, in the present moment, are capable of making action happen.
Being fit and lean is the result of thousands of healthy choices – all made
in the present moment.
So give your future (fictional) self a break and start making real, tangible
progress towards your goal – right now, in this moment.
Begin right now by calling or emailing today to get started on an exercise
program that will enhance your life and bring your goals from fantasy to
reality.
Have-Your-Chocolate Pudding
As you work towards your fitness goals, finding desserts that are low in
natural sugars will facilitate your results. It will take some time for your
taste buds to adjust from enjoying intense, refined sugars to appreciating
the subtly and delight of natural, wholesome sugar found in fruit. This
pudding is a spectacular way to enjoy creamy chocolate while avoiding
refined sugars entirely. The avocado, banana and dates provide real, usable
nutrients and vitamins while pleasing your sweet tooth.

Pay Attention
When you are eating, pay attention.
Sounds simple, but how often do you snack in front of the T.V. or eat your
dinner while in rush hour traffic?
Paying attention means eating when you are hungry and stopping when you are
full. It means never eating just to eat, but rather because your body needs
it.
Do this and you will quickly reach your ideal weight.
