Happy Monday everyone! Recently people have been putting in the work when it comes to their training and nutrition and have been feeling amazing!! But what are you supposed to do when that stops?
Sometimes you hit plateaus, down moments, or reach a point of frustration that you just want to stop. This is typically where people will give up and walk away from working on their nutrition. What can you do to stop that from happening?
Take a break: sometimes taking a small (but regulated) diet break can help get you out of a funk. It’s not a time to go all out and eat whatever you want, but a time you intentionally increase the amount of nutritious foods you eat!
Switch up your foods: Typically, when people get into a good groove with their diet, they don’t want to change it. They stick with the same types of foods but mix up the meals or they actually stick with eating the same exact meals over and over again. Eating the same things every day you are actually cutting yourself short on getting varied nutrients. Mix it up and try new recipes!
Easy meals: Don’t get me wrong…I am all for a fresh cooked meal each time I eat but sometimes it’s just not feasible. Is that a time to get down on yourself for that and give up? HECK NO! There are so many healthy options you can choose from that are quick and can help you build a nutritious meal in under 10 minutes. #lazychef
Prevent hitting those low moments you might reach with your nutrition by making things simple, mixing up your foods, and knowing when you need to take a break!
