It’s Monday Morning. It’s not like I’m telling you something you don’t already know. It’s a day where we begin a week – our week of work, school, sports, eating healthy and clean and being the best we can be. While some dread Mondays – others embrace it. The feeling of eating clean and knowing by next weekend you will be even less weight than you were this past weekend. The feeling of being the best you can be and no one can stop you or get in your way because you are the only person who has control of it. Monday mornings are a brand new start every week and when you do the program 110% it’s also a day that your body believes is starting over, it’s going to work it’s hardest today because it’s struggling to get back and get rid of the Cheat Day.
Mondays should be embraced. Feel great about them. Any mistakes you made last week can be changed to positives this week. Anything that you wish you could have done better last week – you can do better this week. Don’t waste another week, and another opportunity to be amazing. We all have challenges that we need to fight to get through. Make this week your week that you will fight for what you want. Make it through the challenges so you can see and feel the differences. Prepare, plan and make this week an amazing week that you can look back and feel proud of. That you know you did all the right things because you were ready for it, because you planned for it and you made sure it was going to be amazing.
Do you know what happens when you plan and follow through an amazing week? You are not afraid…That’s right, when you do all the right things you know that your numbers will be down. You know you feel lighter, healthier, and stronger. You look forward to the scale. You are excited to see the new number. When you do all the right things you are not looking to blame everything around you. You are not angry. You are happy, lighter and feeling healthy. When you do all the right things you are only looking forward to one thing – you are looking forward to the next week. The next low number, the next pants size, and fitting in your shorts, and bathing suit that you couldn’t even think about last year. You are looking forward to another great week.
Focus on your goal and stay on your path
Don’t look in any direction except the positive one
This week you will believe and “own” your strength. You will keep things simple and follow your menu and feel amazing. You know there will be challenges – there are always challenges. But you also know that you will get through them. You will not use them as another excuse to have an “off” day or week. You will look back on each challenge and know that you are stronger than anything that can possibly get in your way because YOU WANT THIS. You will not go through another spring and summer in a place that you are uncomfortable and sad. You will not let another month go by without changing who you are and becoming who you want to be. You know deep down that you are strong and you can do this. You are no different than anyone else and you know that the only person who keeps getting in your own way is you. But not this week. This week you will depend on your strength to do all the right things. You will not give in and you will not feel sorry for yourself – not this week. This week you will remind yourself that you WANT THIS – And no one is going to sabotage you, not even you.
There is no food that is so amazing
that you need to eat it if it’s not your Cheat Day
Everyday this week you will tell yourself that YOU WANT THIS and you will do whatever it takes to stay on program and be amazing. You will let go of the mistakes from last week or last month. You will not live with should of, could of, or would have – this week you will only focus on WHAT YOU WANT AND WHAT YOU ARE GOING TO DO.
PLAN – PREPARE- AND BE STRONG
Your mind is a powerful thing.
When you fill it with positive thoughts –
it will believe them and you will change.
