Hey, hey, STRONG friend! Happy New Year's Eve. I have a friendly reminder for you today, on the last day of the year.

The fact is there will always be holidays!

There will always be celebrations!

Birthdays.

Parties.

Meals out.

Girls nights.

Movie nights.

Vacations.

Treats n things.

There will be bumps.

Dips and valleys!

There will always be some event that includes food.

Guess what...

That's okay.

Food is part of life.

Food isn't just fuel...

it is also enjoyment

it's nourishment

it's part of many celebrations

it's tradition

it’s connection

Food is just so much more than fuel.

And it's not going anywhere!

It's meant to be enjoyed. Food is not meant to be feared. Nor is it meant to come with a side of guilt.

“We should enjoy food and have fun. It is one of the simplest and nicest pleasures in life.” – Julia Child

Food is not out to get you! It's not trying to sabotage you or your goals.

STRONG friend, as you head into 2024, don't enter it with a restrictive mindset or a punishing one, but enter with a mindset of improvement, one of addition. 

What can you add, and how can I make my health and wellness sustainable and manageable for the long haul? 

You can really have a healthy relationship with all food, fitness, and your body without feeling like every New Year you have to do some type of detox or restrictive plan to get back on track.

In order to not be here every New Year, you will have to start learning how to not live in the extremes.

I hope that one day you get to the point where you feel like you are not off the "proverbial track" because you overindulged or had more treats than normal.
 

STRONG friend, you are always literally one meal, one lift, one good night's sleep, etc., to being right back on that so-called track.

There is no need ever to feel like all is lost or that you have to start over completely!

We simply pick right back up where you left off!

And last, it's what you do MOST of the time that has the biggest impact.

Thanks for reading STRONG friend. I appreciate you, and thank you for the love, care, and support this year!

Happy 123123 day! Have a wonderful last day of the year, STRONG friend.

See you on the other side!

In Strength & to Your Success,
Much Love
Coach C 🏋🏾‍♀️💪🏾
