Ever wondered why your diet is impeccable in week one – yet after the third week, completely turns 360 and you find yourself binging on the foods you deprived yourself from on week one?

Clients come to me with this exact problem (and it’s one I hear a LOT as trainer.)

Your week one goals:
>>1. Eat ONLY “healthy” foods – kale, chicken, broccoli
>>2. Avoiding ALL social outings to remove any form of temptation with food groups that are not on your diet.
>>3. Exercise MORE

After three weeks, your levels of stress from work increases, you finish your shift late and you’re hungrier than ever. You decide to throw the towel in. You’ve have enough of the deprivation of food and isolation.

So here’s the PROBLEM – your diet is so restrictive that it’s virtually impossible to follow 365 days a year.

When we adjust our perceptions of DIETING, thats when we see better long-term progress without any extremities.

Here’s what the SOLUTION that I offer to clients who face this battle with Yo-yo crash diets:

>>1.The 80/20 Rule (80% nutritionally dense foods/ 20% soul foods)
>>2.Use MyFitnessPal to keep a food diary
>>3. Manipulating your diet so you can still enjoy social outings without deterring from your progress.

If you’re stuck on your quest to losing the belly-fat and find yourself following crash diets – simply reach out or find a trainer that gives you nutritional blueprints that don’t hinder other areas of your life.
