TAKE THIS QUICK QUIZ: Which one of these statements is a behavior? 👇
.
â‘ 2022 GOAL: “Eat healthier.”
.
② PLAN: Make veggies a base for a meal in a 75/25 ratio – 75% plants, 25% protein [animal or plant]
.
③ EXECUTE: Prepare three salads from my meal plan this week to enjoy as a base for simple proteins
.
If you answered ③, you are correct đź‘Ź ! Why is the answer to this question the most important you will consider this upcoming year? Because focusing on anything but behavior rarely produces change that sticks. Statements â‘ and ② are important pieces of the puzzle, but simply committing to these statements doesn’t drive behaviors that will support you in meeting your ultimate goal.
.
Work with a credentialed healthcare professional experienced with health behavior change to assess your goals and create a plan that optimizes success with meeting your health goals. For me, part of the plan always includes getting in the kitchen – it’s hard to meet and sustain any health goal without some level of cooking competency.
.
So:
👉 swipe past the eliminations, cleanses, diet trends
👉 stop counting calories
👉 save money
👉 get in the kitchen
👉 finally, be free of the restriction mindset that leads to failure and shame – yuk!
