Its Superbowl weekend! Congratulations to the Chiefs and the 49ers! Its been a tough season!

But the fight won’t only be on the gridiron in Miami. Households across the globe will face its own struggles!

Snacks while Dieting?

As the calendar turns over to February the “new year new me” tribe are in full swing. The first gym payment is due soon, and you are loving your 25th meat and broccoli meal of the year…………

But the Superbowl is here……………

Full slabs of Ribs

Unlimited Wings

Nachos and Dip

Pitchers of Beer

The temptation is thrust into your lap. The little pot bellied devil is on your shoulder telling you “Come on, it’s the Superbowl”

But there is help to hand. Google has a long list of healthy snacks you can make “quick and simple” to enjoy while watching the game.

Now I need to practice what I preach. Can I promise that I wont be wiping buffalo sauce off my chin by the time the 2nd quarter starts. No I can not. But can I say to myself “Ive worked hard for this?” Yes I most definitely can.

Your inner voice will tell you. The guilt is real, but only guilty people have done something wrong.

Remember, mind body and soul……………………In that Order……………….GO 9ers!

Fad Diets – why the negativity?

Atkins Diet, Paleo Diet, Keto Diet……………….

Diets can come in many forms and guises. From low carb diets to fat burners, people can become exasperated with the choices on offer. Before and after shots of peoples weight losses holding newspapers to confirm dates, are littered next to people’s stories of “failing” to maintain the diet plan. The wagon has had so many people fall off, someone should question when the MOT is due, surely?!

Diets are Unique

Diets are not a one size fits all, they are there to educate, improve and support you in your everyday lifestyle.

The issue with the “fad diet” is they are designed for maximum results over a short period of time. Stories of 10lb weight loss in a week are not conducive with a healthy lifestyle. Finding your body’s, and as importantly, your mind’s balance is the key to a long-lasting weight management programme.

The next time you research the next fashionable weight loss programme ask yourself these questions;

  • Can I maintain this for 6 months?
  • What are my aims?
  • Do I feel supported?

Don’t pressure yourself. Remember diet doesn’t have to mean weight loss, it can mean healthy lifestyle.

Mind Body and Soul………………….In that order ????
