Thoughts for Success: Whole Foods, Whole Body, Whole Life
No matter how good our diet is or how much we exercise we don’t always have control over every aspect of our body. My reality is that perfect workouts and a perfect diet won’t ever get me Cameron Diaz’s skinny legs or trim ankles (Darn 🙁 ).
But these disappointing (albeit minor) realities shouldn’t get in the way of appreciating the role food plays in our lives. For example, have you ever known someone who’s in the gym religiously but their body never changes? It could be that they haven’t ramped up the intensity of their exercise routine, but more likely, the lack of results has to do with diet. A lot of people think, “If I exercise I can eat anything I want.” That’s simply not true (especially if you drink a 550-calorie White Chocolate Mocha Frappuccino on the way home from the gym).
95% of our diet should be whole foods (Okay, 100% but none of us are perfect and some of us just can’t eat any more kale). A diet of whole foods is not a deprivation diet, but it does mean eliminating processed foods and sugar (but luckily, not kale).
Embrace a whole foods diet and you’ll quickly see how different and amazing you feel. A woman I know was 80 lbs. overweight when she started to notice how severely her body was rebelling against the abuse. She put herself on a natural whole foods diet, added regular exercise and all of the symptoms of achiness and cloudy head disappeared. She’s a different person.
Whole foods are a great start to achieving a whole body which helps you to achieve more legal nurse consulting productivity and the whole life you deserve.
Success Is Inside (and what you put inside)!
