Week One

Week one has come and gone of the New Year New You program.  I hope you have had a great week and feel energized to continue on your trek of not only learning but changing your way of doing things nutritionally.  

The first week is usually the easiest because motivation is high and you start feeling better just a few days into it.  You start to wonder what took so long for you to start... then week 2 and 3 come and you slowly start to see old habits sneak up and the temptation is to just give into a few.  Why not?  You have done so well all week, it can't hurt.  Yes, it can.  One 'old habit' leads to two and so forth, stay strong my friend!  Stay strong and focused.  We need to develop new habits and say adios to the old.  

I did great the first 5 days and starting slipping on day 6.  It is hard, but we can do it together!  I am going to have an even harder struggle this week as I am out of town the entire week and virtually have no control over the food that is served to me.  I do have control over what I put in my mouth though so I am packing my food journal and my goal is to write everything down no matter how pretty it is!  

Have a great 2nd week everyone, stay focused on the end result!  I promise you it is worth it!
