Former athletes often nail training but sabotage nutrition with all-or-nothing thinking: one burger means the whole day is blown, so they overindulge. Those small weekend lapses compound over months and years. Breaking this pattern is what actually moves the needle on weight and health.
women who come to me who have been past athletes, they've been, you know, in the gym for 10+ years and they're like, I have all this figured out, but like the nutrition part, I just don't know how to navigate the weekends, all this stuff. And I'm like, it's because you're stuck in this all-or-nothing mindset to where it's like they'll go to dinner and they're like, well, you know, since I'm going to have like the burger and fries, I'm just going to like throw everything out the window and I'm just going to go overindulge. But that's— those are all those little small decisions that you make that people don't realize those compound over A month, 3 months, 6 months, a year, and then that's going to reflect how healthy you are, how much weight you've gained or lost type of a deal, right?
