Bouncing Back From a Weekend of Binge Eating

March 1st, 2010

If you were like me and millions of other people around the world, you may have been watching the Canada-USA Olympic gold medal hockey game yesterday.

For some reason, these big sporting events don’t bring out the best in our dietary habits. Whether it be the olympics, the super bowl, the world cup final, or any other big sporting event, we tend to let go and eat whatever we want.

You know…

The beer, the pizza, the wings, and on and on.

Well, I didn’t really have all of that this past weekend – aside from the pizza – but if you have ever found yourself in a similar position where you’ve just totally let yourself go with your healthy eating, then I’ve got one thing to say…

Move on!

Don’ dwell on the fact that you didn’t eat as “perfectly” as you’d like. Just remember that today is a new day and that means a fresh start.

You can’t change what happened yesterday but you can change what you put in your mouth today.

So don’t worry about being perfect all the time. It’s just not possible. Do your best in any given situation and if you “fall down” then just get right back up and move on.

It’s all about momentum so the goal is to put an end to the “bad” momentum (ie. unhealthy or binge eating) and kick-start your new day with a healthy smoothie or juice or something else that will revitalize your body.

Once you do so, you’ll have gotten the ball rolling in the right direction and be on track for a healthier day!
