The 21 Day Flat Belly Fix

Weight… Something most people struggle with, whether it is lost or to gain weight. I wish I could be one of those skinny fit blonde preppy girls who actually enjoy eating salads and detox teas and find fast food disgusting…. but I’m not.

The thought of kale, avocado, and quinoa make me cringe and anyone who says they don’t like burgers and fries will definitely get the side eye from me. Nevertheless, eating healthy and losing some weight is important but it’s a real struggle. Food can seem like a toxic relationship that you addicted to especially when you are feeling down or anxious. Which is definitely my case. For the past 4 years, I moved from being blissfully unaware of my weight because I was a size 8 to have it be a constant topic in the back of my mind that I can’t shrug off.

By the way, I highly recommend Todd Lamb’s The 21 Day Flat Belly Fix System for those who don’t know where to start with their weight loss journey. Tod’s weight loss system does work! Just try to see amazing results in only three weeks. Okay, friends, I have identified one problem that relates to my lifestyle.

I have an unhealthy relationship with food!

I look to it as comfort, as a distraction or as a reward. The truth is food is simply there to nourish you, not to be your relief in difficult situations or your joy in life. Does anyone else have this problem? Just because you eat the right portions of healthy food for three days of the week, doesn’t mean you mean you can binge for the four remaining days of the week. Also not eating anything and just drinking water and black coffee with no sugar for your “detox days” have not benefited you.

This took me a long time to mentally accept this fact. Although I obviously knew it wasn’t healthy, I still rolled my eyes at the fact. Gone will be days that I eat 1000 calories or less every day for three months. Also gone (hopefully) are the days that I eat 3000 calories or more a day without even noticing or even feeling fully full.

It is said the key to weight loss is to “eat less and exercise more” but sometimes it’s not so simple. Regaining a healthy relationship with food and dealing with the way I used to food, view it mentally is what I’m going to focus on (obviously hoping to lose some weight on the way too).

There is so much contradicting information in relation to nutrition out there that it can be confusing. “Don’t eat carbs, high carbs all the way; fats O.K – the problem is sugar; sugar does not cause weight gain.” So I’ve decided to stick to just counting calories and eating as healthy as I can, accompanied by walking 10,000 steps a day.

I’ve created this new post to inspire myself and others to begin to live a healthy life, body, soul, and mind. I’ll be posting ones in a while motivational quotes, progress updates, healthy recipes and information that I found helped me on my journey. So make sure you stay in touch. Until next time…
