If you looked at the dates , you would have
noticed . Yes, I went off the wall and could not take the diet. I had to
indulge for a few days , "well a little more than a few days . The point
is I am human and so is everyone else that is probably reading this information.
I would like to make a strong point to people. The point is , if you are
starting a new nutritional program , there is a very good chance you may
make a few mistakes . That is exactly what I want everyone to be aware
of . It is O.k. to make a few mistakes . The key is to continue your nutritional
regimen and modify it to fit you. You must also be mentally prepared before
you can do this. Remember this , you are an individual and so is your body.
You must have a goal , and shoot for it . Whatever your goal may be , set
one . Then follow through on it.
Setting goals is exactly what bodybuilders ,
fitness athletes , actors , musicians, and anyone that has ever used a
program similar to this has done.
This is the key to being successful at anything. You
must set a goal , and have the desire to attain it . Sure your goal may
not be to become Mr. Universe or Ms. Fitness America , but whatever your
goal may be it is a valid goal. It is your personal goal . You are the
only one that can attain your goal . So , stop putting it off know one
else is going to get you to your goal . If you want it you must work at
it.
