Many of us struggle with trying various diets and programs only to find that they aren't sustainable in the long run.

Quotes:

• "Quit picking programs that set you up for an ending you never want! Ask yourself, 'What is the end goal?' and work backward from there."

Key Takeaways

1. Reevaluate Past Attempts:

• Reflect on previous diets and programs. Did you ever see them as sustainable long-term solutions? The goal is to find an approach that aligns with your life and values.

Define Your End Goal:

• What do you want your life to look like at your healthiest? Picture a life not consumed by the scale, feeling confident and free from food confusion.

Simple, Real Food:

• Focus on eating real, simple foods. Implement small, manageable changes like meal planning, prepping, and finding time for yourself and rest.

Heart Shift:

• Invite God into your journey. Shift your mindset from "I have to" to "I get to" when it comes to making healthy choices. This change can help break generational strongholds and transform your relationship with food and health.
