5 Mindset Prompts for Lasting Fitness
The prompts:
1. "This body is mine forever. It does so much for me, it's my job to honor it."
2. "Food is fuel and an experience. Not a cheat or treat meal, not a punishment, not a therapist, not a void filler."
3. "Exercise is not punishment or compensation for something I ate. It's how I pay myself, an investment in myself."
4. "Working out is a gift, not a burden. I am so fortunate to have a body that is a machine. It can heal itself from trauma, it carries me and protects me, and gives me freedom."
5. "Is [insert thing that takes up my time here] ultimately more important than taking care of myself? Is that really the best way to show up for myself and for others?"

Diet Series Part 3: Weight Watchers, Nutrisystem/Jenny Craig, Macros, Zone Diet
This episode we're covering counting/number-based diets. I believe in learning macros as a TOOL, not emphasize it as a diet, because as we know micronutrients are important to consider, so while you may lose weight eating whatever you want "if it fits your macros", you still may not see optimal results.
Remember the golden question around diets, "IS IT SUSTAINABLE?"
