When it comes to nutrition plans, exercise plans, or really just about anything in life, getting comfortable with the "gray zone" is important. Sure, the black-and-white, all-or-nothing mentality might make for some successes when it comes to diet or exercise (when you're all in, you likely see some great wins!), but inevitably there will be a day when you can't be all in (or in at all) ... and then what? Typically that's when people give up altogether. Any and all wins go by the wayside.
It's simply not sustainable or realistic to approach food, dieting, exercise, etc. with black-and-white thinking. Never going out to eat, for example, might be a good way to control what food goes in your mouth, but is it realistic to think you'll never need or want to eat at a restaurant? Life happens; you start dating and find yourself at restaurants or injury/illness/busy weeks cause you to turn to restaurant meals for convenience. Going to a restaurant doesn't have to mean throwing your nutrition plan out the window! It just means you have to have some intention about ordering something that will be as close to on-plan as possible.
That's the gray zone, and it seems to be where most of life takes place. So in today's Dr. Francavilla Show podcast episode, I share how to make a nutrition plan that's moderate—somewhere between all-or-nothing and something that's sustainable for real life. I debunk the the top 3 myths you tell yourself, so you won't want to miss this!
