Balance is one of those things people struggle with. I know I am one of them. When I work out and eat on plan, I live in extremes. Either I stick to the plan 100%, or I’m a disaster. The last two days I’ve been a disaster. I slept in past my alarms two days in a row, meaning I didn’t work out. Both days I opted for cookies instead of my scheduled meal. Instead of panicking or stressing about how off plan I am, I let it go. Some days you win, some days you lose. These two days were a loss and that’s ok.

If you find yourself falling off plan, just do your best that day. Start over new on the next day. Remember, it took you years to gain the weight slowly over time. 1-2 days off plan is not going to derail you, make you lose gains or destroy all your recent hard work. Give yourself a little grace, a little balance, and do better the next day
