For you to have long term success in your health/weight loss journey, food CANNOT be the adversary.
It absolutely cannot be you vs. food.
There is no “good” or “bad” food. There’s just food.
Sure, some food has more micro-nutrients (vitamins and minerals) than others.
Some food has more calories than others.
If you eat too many calories, you’ll gain weight regardless of what foods you choose.
The relationship that you have with all types of food will largely determine your long term success in losing weight and improving your overall health.
Having an all or nothing mentally in regard to food type almost always leads to bingeing and yo-yo dieting.
Your diet will not be perfect, nor should it be.
You should enjoy lots of protein/fiber/nutrient dense foods.
You should also enjoy a few not so protein/fiber/nutrient dense foods.
Moderate and play the long game.
It’s the only way to sustain success long term.
Ever stronger!
