Do you have a “temptation table” at your office?

Do you succumb to the chocolate goodies staring you in the face?  Or do you rise above the power of sweets and defeat that sugar coated, sprinkled, wheat filled menace?  What makes some people get caught in the trap of “cheating?”  The word “cheat” has such a negative physcological connotation to it that will eventually wear on an individual and drive them to failure.

You have to change your mindset into a positive perspective.  When I eat, I ask myself, “How is this going to nourish my body?  Is this helping my health or hurting it?  Am I going to energize my body or send it into a state of fatigue?”   Make sure to keep your “cheat meals/days” or even better, “treat meals/days” to a minimum.  They should be special!  Eventually, when your body adapts to eating meat, veggies, fruit, nuts and seeds it will crave less and less of these “treat meals”  When you cheat, you usually feel pretty crummy and will be motivated to stay on track.  However, you’ve got to spend some time getting your body programmed to this point.  Invest in your health, stay on track, and reward yourself occasionally.

Coach Dutch Lowy, of CrossFit ATM, has some thoughts on cheating.  ”I think it is important for people to shift their perspective to why they do something. Bottom line, we eat for nourishment so why muddy the waters with food that won’t nourish you?”

“If you do something, do it for a reason. If you enjoy training and don’t care about seeing results then do the same with your eating. If you train for a reason, and you should have a defined goal, grab a little focus and get down to business.  Drink your coffee for a reason, train for a reason and if you are gonna eat something, eat it for a reason.”  Click here to read the rest of the article.
