The Quick Fix

 

There is no quick fix, so sorry if that was a tease ,but the truth is you can change…over time. A quick fix result will last about the same time. In order to get healthy you need to choose a plan and make it your way of life! I have been pushing the Paleo lifestyle for almost three years and I have yet to find a reason to not believe in it.

The quick fix is just a ploy of marketing in order to get you to buy their products, no one gets out of shape over night and the same holds for getting fit.  What is your plan once you reach your perfect size?, return to snacking and over eating junk and give up moving!

I have said in the pass chose an ideal role model for the body type you would like. I chose British actor Jason Statham (also short and bald like myself) who has a very lean muscular cut to his frame. If you could snap your fingers and switch bodies with the person you admire just how long do you think it would be before this new body would like somewhat like your old persona?

So instead of thinking how do I lose 10 lbs by next Friday or a month from now, change your thinking to how can I make healthy choices today.

I have found its not the big effort at the gym or eating only Kale but the amount of little changes we make everyday that direct you right where you need to be. Imagine if your a pilot leaving LA for New York, now that’s a long flight and your navigator will be making adjustments along the way to keep you on track. A lot of the time you will be veering of course and you will need to be reminded of where you are going… its the same for the destination of your health. You start off strong,but without a navigator where are you going to land?

This is not a quick trip I hope but an epic journey and each step can be made towards getting you there or taking you off the path.

Make smart small choices everyday, avoid sugar and grains. Take the stairs and park a little further away.  Make your own routine for working out that you enjoy and fun along the way.

My body is nothing like Jason Statham yet, but it also no longer looks like Marlon Brando in Apocalypse Now!

Peace and Love all
