There are plenty of fads, diets, and pre-packaged meal plan options available – yet, obesity is on the rise. Why? Simple. Diets don't work. Fads fade. Meal plan options are temporary and can become expensive over time. Because we make basic nutrition more complicated than it really is, I wanted to provide you with a simple plan.

Do you ever have one of those days; you know the ones that start off bad right from the start. You wake up at 5am with too much on your mind and your alarm clock is not set to go off until 7am. After the many attempts of falling back asleep you start to doze and then guess what it is 7am and that alarm sounds like the most annoying sound you could ever imagine. The day goes on and on and you get so drained from the workday that all you want to do is go home, eat junk food, and lay on the couch but you know you need to go to the gym and get your workout in. It is hard to push yourself to go, believe me I know the feeling. You tell yourself if I go I will feel better, and you probably will. If you don’t go, there is always tomorrow and the next day. This is a common struggle I hear all the time, this and “I just can’t find time in my schedule to go to the gym”. Whatever the excuse is the more you do it the more it becomes an ongoing problem and then you look back and you haven’t worked out in 2 months and all your motivation is gone at this point. Why do so many people fall victim to an inactive lifestyle? I believe it is a lack of motivation and lack of value.
