Sayings like “having willpower”, “eating in moderation”, and “guilt free" are thrown around all of the time. They’re generally thought to help you, to guide you in the right direction when it comes to eating healthy.
But rather than empowering, inspiring, and helping you achieve your health goals, what if I told you that this "inspiration" might actually be sabotaging your valiant efforts towards becoming your healthiest self?
These terms—dare I say "bad words"—are used...overused...even abused! And they can be detrimental when it comes to supporting your weight goals and even your happiness.
For my clients, I find that these terms are too vague, are negative energy, cause them to think about and focus on unhealthy foods even more, and at some point, put them in a losing situation.
While these words don’t have to be completely thrown out of your vocabulary, it’s important to realize how even simple words can have a huge effect on your health.
