"I'm 30 lbs overweight, but I eat pretty healthy."
No. You eat healthy some days, and however you feel on the rest.
The numbers don't lie.
You don't gain 30 lbs by accident. It happens one bite, one day, one excuse at a time.

If your holiday outfits, sweaters, and dress clothes fit tighter than they did last year, use that as a sign that you need to make changes now.
Don't wait until your summer vacation when you have to take your shirt off.
You can feel hungry and not eat.
You can feel tired and still go to the gym.
You can crave a beer but still choose water.
Just because you feel a certain way doesn't mean you must act a certain way.
If you're too tired and sluggish to go to the gym, it's because you don't go to the gym.
The energy boost you are waiting for comes after you start going to the gym, not before.
The snacks in the breakroom at work.
The size of your plates at dinner.
The commercials you watch on TV.
The average American diet and your health goals do not match.
So if you don't want your health to be like everyones, you need to eat differently than everyone.
If you don’t know your numbers, then you’re just guessing:
- Drinks per week (preferably 0)
- Calories (300-500 calorie deficit)
- Steps (8,000-10,000)
- Protein (0.8-1g per pound of body weight)
- Sleep (7-9 hrs per night)
- Weights lifted in the gym
You don't go to the gym because you are tired and sluggish.
But the reason you are tired and sluggish is because you don't go to the gym.
Your exact excuse for not going, should be your fuel to go.
You can't take everyone with you.
There will be people in your life who are just fine staying exactly the same.
It's not your responsibility to drag them to a better life.
And if they can't accept the new version of you, that's a them problem, not a you problem.
