If you started eating well back in July, by now you should have made a shift in your relationship with food, no?
Food should seem like less of a treat and more of something you need.
If you don’t feel like anything has changed maybe you haven’t eaten well enough for a long enough time, without cheating.
Cheating can’t be a consistent habit. You need to eat well consistently. If you are eating well and cheating consistently as well, this won’t work as well.
I know it’s difficult to cut everything out like coffee creamer, oatmeal and Bananas!
But this is what makes the difference between you looking the way you want too and, not.

Hello, is Jordan the only one that does these exercises?
Is this because they aren’t easy?
That’s true, these exercises are not easy.
It depends on how you approach them, depends on whether you decide to be dishonest or honest with yourself.
If you are honest and everything lines up with who you are, that’s amazing!
Not being honest guarantees you one thing, everything will stay the same.
Unless of course, this is exactly where you want to be.

I missed yesterday, sorry about that.

How goes with your nutrition?

Did some of you get derailed cause of the holiday?

Do you find yourself “starting over” a lot.

Are you having a hard time eating well all the time or do you have a “snack” here and there throughout the day?

I know, this shit is tough. Some of us deal with crap all day long and then when you get home, now you have to fight with yourself to eat well.
That shit is rough. You all know what this is about right? You need to make eating well a priority. But that’s not what this is about.

Would you agree if you are having these issues it is safe to say that food controls you?

If you do agree, take a look at the rest of your life and see if anything else controls you that you don’t realize.

I’m not attacking anyone! Just making a suggestion.

This is all an easy fix.

What you believe to be most important to you reflects your life (this was your assignment last week). If you aren’t happy with your life that means you have the wrong mindset, right?

If your mindset lined up with what truly makes you happy … then right now you would be happy.

I’m not saying this is anyone of us, nor am I pointing anything out. I’m just offering something to think about.

Is everyone still trying to eat well?

I have another request, for those of you who watch entirely too much Television.
Try doing this, every time you sit down to watch T.V. open a book instead. I mean
I still leave the T.V. on but if it is going to entice you to watch it, then don’t.
It’s great, instead of participating in having yourself manipulated through advertisements and
political bullshit and Shows with hidden agendas, you will actually read something you are interested in!
Give it a month, you’ll feel so much better.

Who already started destroying the Halloween candy?
There’s another two weeks before Halloween. If you keep candy around the house now, do you realize how much you will have consumed by time two weeks is up? I mean unless you made a rule that you will not buy anymore candy even if you run out?
That rule never works right.

If you are trying to eat well, yet you keep picking on shit all day long because it’s not a meal so it feels ok, it’s not going to work.
Consistency Consistency Consistency!!! It’s whatever you choose to do consistently. If you choose to eat well consistently you will see amazing results, If you choose too eat poorly you will also see amazing results, (just not the ones you’re looking for) and if you choose to eat 50/50 you won’t see much at all.

Every time you eat, this is a choice you make.
