When Can You Eat Your Favorite Cakes? When is the time to enjoy your favorite foods, Cake, and desserts - without the following guilt or feeling of regret?
A few years back I went on a 1-week vacation with my family. This 7 day hiatus from and work and discipline was the perfect time to break my patterns of healthy eating and exercise.
I went all out on this vacation, thouroughly enjoying myself - which included lots and lots of Cakes.
I had no problem adjusting to the overeating and lack of exercise. It was great fun - at least temporarily!! After following 7 days of this glutinous way of life, Cakes and candies and pies......
I went up a whole size of pants as well as packing on an additional 37 pounds. Moral of the story, don't do that. You can eat your favorite Cakes - just don't over do it.
As a personal trainer this is what I suggest for how to go about it the proper way.....
Make eating healthy eating and regular exercise the rule in your life.
As you know there are always exceptions to the rule no matter the subject matter - and yes this does include eating and exercise (Even Cakes)..
When you make healthy eating and exercise the rule, the occasional Cake or other exceptions are not a cause for vexation. Let me clarify that, if you make fitness your normal habit, the occasional outside pattern or desert or treat, such as a birthday cake, wedding cake or even a party cake, will not ruin your body.
As long as you return to the original plan, and not change it as you go.
A few desserts each week, even a few missed workout sessions will not damage you, as long as they are exceptions and not the norm.
Say that you eat 28 times a week - 5 meals a day each day of the week.
If you allow a 10% exception rule that allows for about 3-4 meals of less-than-optimal eating each week, that can be Cake, desserts, candies, anything you like (in moderation)..
When you engage in an "exception meal", don't eat enough for the next 3 days worth, just eat the same amount of calories and portions of food as normal, except this time it's in the form of your favorite foods or Cakes.
Make a healthy way of life the rule rather than the exception - and you can enjoy that occasional treat without a trace of guilt. That is your guide to eating Cake and staying fit.
Wouldn't you prefer a lifestyle where you do the work once and get paid for it for a lifetime? A great alternative to that boring old, life wasting 9 to 5 is to make money online.
If you are thinking I can't make money online, then guess what? You won't! But if you want to fulfill your dreams, spend more time with your family, travel the world before you are 70, then let's get you on track, with a money making system that will enable you to do just that.
You need vision and purpose.
So where do you want to be in five years? I doubt it will be stuck behind a desk, on a construction site, or anywhere you have a boss. Let your mind go, be as fanciful as you like and get the picture firmly in your head.
Maybe your dream is similar to what mine was. Having an online business that involves working from my laptop for an hour or so a day on a beautiful golden beach, with the sound of the waves gently moving back and forth over the sand, and the odd glance up at my yacht about 500 yards out to sea (that bit is still in the pipeline).
What's your dream? See it and feel it, use all your senses to imagine the place you would like to be in the future. Visualize that dream everyday and it will start to become more than a dream, it could well become reality.
Do you believe that?
If the answer is 'no', then you have limiting beliefs. Your dreams can come true, never forget that.
Successful people attract success - this is down to the law of attraction. So what you need to do is think rich and positive thoughts, visualize where you want to be as if you are there, as often as you can and your subconscious will get you there. These are empowering beliefs.
The secret to a good vision and purpose is to make it as specific as possible. Instead of 'I am rich'; it should be 'On the 7th July 2009 I am holding a check for $50,000 that my online business has just generated me".
Along with reading that statement several times everyday, you will need to visualize where you are when you receive that check, what your reaction will be and how you feel.
This may sound like mumbo jumbo, but it is far from it. Last weekend I wrote down that I was going to win the grand prize at a seminar I was attending, and as the prize draw was taking place, I imagined my name being pulled out of the hat, and on the very last draw, my name was called out and I won a cruise! This was not coincidence - it was the law of attraction.
Belief is everything, so make sure your beliefs are empowering and not limiting and your online business will be a success.
