Here’s the secret: every diet works. No, seriously. They all do.
They all have the common goal of giving your body a little bit less food than you need, so you can put your fat stores to use, and burn through some of that stored energy for fuel, they all just have a slightly different way of doing that 🤷🏼♀️
Some eliminate food groups, some close your eating windows, some have you log your intake while you eat freely.
But the most IMPORTANT quality of your diet, should be how easy it is for YOU to stick to it. If you can’t stay within the limits of your diet strategy, you’re not going to see those pounds drop like they’re hot 🥵
If you’re wanting to lean out for the summertime, I feel you!
But before you choose a popular, no carb, diet everyone’s doing or my-Aunt-Becky-lost-50lbs-on-this-so-it-must-work-for-me diet, here’s some boxes you need to check off to make sure this diet that worked for her, will work for you too 👇🏼
Does your diet...
⛅️ align with your natural eating patterns?
🍪 allow you to still eat foods you like?
🌮 give you freedom to go out to eat or have your mom’s home cooking?
🥗 you have to bring your own food everywhere or will you be able to order off the menu?
🥂 what are its rules on drinking? Is this something that’s important that you have in your life?
🥦 does it give you the structure you want?
🍦 does it give you the flexibility you need?
📉 jeopardize your health for your physique?
📈 offer you a strategy you can follow AFTER you achieve your goal body? (because this is important too!)
Throughout your fitness journey, heck, throughout your LIFE, you will be forced to overcome so many obstacles. So many parts of your journey will be hard. ❕But your diet doesn’t have to be❕
Following a strategy that gives you optimal results that works for you not only now but long term is the secret sauce in achieving and then maintaining your new body 🤟🏼
