Take the
24 Day Challenge
Is a concept or approach that I strongly recommend to anyone but especially those that are trying to make sustainable lifestyle changes and are getting off the diet roller coaster. Clean eating is very effective for my clients who are turning away from the bondage that can stem from struggles with food. So, to put it briefly, clean eating is avoiding sweets, fried foods, and "junk food" for 6 days of the week. During those 6 days you are to eat enough to fuel your body with lean meats, fresh fruits and vegetables, complex carbohydrates, and to stay well-hydrated. However, ONE day of the week, enjoy one meal or one day of eating your "avoidables", BUT ONLY FOR THAT ONE APPOINTED TIME!!! (not in effect while doing the 24 day challenge)
80-90% of what you "look like" is based on what you eat.
60% of people that begin an excercise plan quit within 1 month without a trainer.
Angel inspires us to be the best we can be inspite of all our moaning and groaning. I’m finally getting the body I've always wanted.
