10. Practice Moderation.
For me, the key to living a healthy lifestyle
and staying fit while eating out comes down
to moderation. I know this word may seem
a bit overused, but just hear me out. I often
have clients tell me that they are “all or noth-
ing” and they could never just stop at two
bites, but I’m not buying it. I believe you can
train yourself to practice moderation. It may
be difficult at first, but you can teach yourself
to stop when you may want to mindlessly
keep going. When we master moderation, we
can enjoy a night out on occasion, we can
have a few bites of dessert, we exercise a
healthy amount, we have the desire to move
more, and we don’t have to feel guilty or
shameful after a little indulgence.
At the end of the day, food shouldn’t be feared, it should
be enjoyed. It is fuel for our body to do all of the amazing
things it’s capable of doing! The more we embrace this per-
spective, the easier it is to adapt to a life of healthy modera-
tion. For more information on HA Recover and Pre/Postnatal
