We catch what we watch… plain and simple. There are about a bazillion food tracking apps for that very reason… because in THEORY monitoring your meals makes food management easier. If done correctly food tracking brings self awareness, knowledge, accountability, and reduces analysis paralysis about what to eat later in the day. Those are all HUGE wins …

People don’t buy exercise… they buy CONSISTENCY!!

And while you can certainly have your favorite restaurants to frequent, we aren’t always in full control of what restaurants are picked. So instead of another “fear the food” or “top …
#MyDamnWay If I had one wish to grant to everyone struggling with their fitness goals, it would be to give them back OWNERSHIP of their journey. There is so much information out there now-a-days, people are living under this giant cloud of food guilt. I listen to people on the daily, scared …
