Feeling guilty because you missed your gym appointment today?
Beating yourself up because you couldn’t be bothered cooking dinner last night - so you ordered a pizza?
It’s OK!
You have to look at things realistically and accept that there are going to be days like these…..it’s called living in the real world.
I briefly touched on this topic in my post about Madonna’s body….where I pointed out that we don’t have anywhere near the support network her money can buy, so, it’s inevitable that there will be days when life gets the better of us and we’ll miss a gym session or eat a pizza….it’s ok, life goes on.
It is important though that you learn from these types of days…..because understanding the triggers will go a long in helping you from prevent another one.
Now let’s discuss the pizza. Try to focus on how your body reacted to it…And ofcourse I’m assuming you normally have a fairly healthy diet…but did you feel heavy, bloated or did you feel sick? Were you sick?
I’m not talking about the psychological feeling about eating a pizza either, I’m talking about your body….how did it react?
Answer those questions and you just may find yourself steering away from junk food in the future and opting for something a little more healthier.
Our advice,,,take a break, have a bath and put your feet up…..tomorrow is another day.
