I truly believe that the more balanced your life is and the less stress that you have the easier it is going to be for you to make healthy decisions about your life. The fewer problems you have that are constantly on your mind, the more room you will have for positive thoughts and actions. I have always said that the easiest way to lose weight is to find a plan that will work for you. With that thought in mind I have changed a few things that I think are all for the best.
I have found a protein shake that satisfies me, tastes good and seems to give me the feeling of being calm. I seem to have problems with being easily irritated when I am at work. I realize that for the time being that job is part of my life and I have to deal with it and the most I can make of this situation, the better off I will be in the long run. My place of employment is my biggest source of emotional eating. Not to mention that they are huge source of unnecessary food. Pastries are always being brought in and many meals are catered in also.
If I start the day out with a protein shake it seems to keep me from experiencing cravings for foods that are unhealthy. If I start out with carbs or even a healthy cereal, I am done. These foods open the flood gates and I cannot seem to get enough food to satisfy me after that. I have to be able to find a program that does not require a lot of cooking, a lot of protein and is low in sugar and carbs.
I have also made some changes to the way I run my part time business. I am going to begin outsourcing more of what I do. It seems the people that are really successful turn most of what they do over to people that are experts. I have a budget of $300-$400 per month and that should get me well on my way to making more money and having more time to do the things I love and the things that are going to get me ready for the future.
My real goals are to keep exercising regularly and to try to control what eat better. For me, the eating part is a struggle and probably always will be, but I keep working at and I have seen improvement. For my finances, I want to have my consumer debt paid off in 6 months. For my business, I would like to be making $100 a day in the next 6 months. I think these goals are all attainable, but what Google does has a lot to do with my business.
