No it\u2019s fine. I\u2019ll get by on caffeine + zero cal energy drinks.\u2063
\u2063
Hoarding my macros for dinner so I can enjoy a meal with my friends!\u2063
\u2063
Doesn\u2019t everyone fantasize about their next meal?\u2063
\u2063
It\u2019s 3 PM and I hit my macro targets already. I don\u2019t need to eat until breakfast tomorrow – willpower and discipline, baby. \u2063
\u2063
\u2026ummm, wut?\u2063
\u2063
Look, I know you want to see changes in the way you look and feel like *yesterday* but that\u2019s still no reason to set your macro targets so low you start sounding like ^^ that person. \u2063
\u2063
And, please, you know and I know it sounds so damn lame. \u2063
\u2063
Words like:\u2063
>> consistency\u2063
>> lifestyle\u2063
>> moderate approach\u2063
>> slow and steady\u2063
>> progress not perfection\u2063
\u2063
They make you roll your eyes – HARD. \u2063
\u2063
For some of you, the only way you think \u201cit will work\u201d is if it\u2019s new, novel, hard, or it hurts! But that\u2019s exactly what\u2019s keeping you stuck and frustrated. \u2063
\u2063
Do yourself a favor and resist the urge to slash and burn. Imagine what could happen when you start eating enough – end the restrict + binge cycle, give yourself permission to feel full + satisfied every day\u2026 forever?\u2063<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t
