Self Sabotage

“Self-sabotage has always been one of my favorite topics because it doesn’t matter what stories people have told me;  I’ve already been there.  I know what it’s like to get within striking distance of my goal weight, only to give up five or ten pounds from the finish line.  I know what it’s like to pull off a certain look, get compliments, and then give myself permission to blow it.  I know what it’s like to give in and give up as I get close to what I really want.  Self-sabotage lurks within each of us every day of our lives.  It has many characteristics, many faces, and many personalities, all with the same objective in mind–to get you off track, away from your goals, and stuffing your face as quickly as possible!”

Marilu Henner, Wear Your Life Well

This is one of the primary reasons why Marilu.com has been effective in helping people attain their health goals for more than a decade.  Marilu knows from experience what we’re facing in our day to day lives.  She knows what it means to self sabotage.

HOW ABOUT YOU ?  Do you need to get out of your own way?   As you head into the weekend take a look at what you might be doing to sabotage your own progress.

Eat Vegan for $4.00 a day !!

Thanks once more to PCRM for alerting us to this video.  A healthy diet does NOT need to break the bank !

Be Smart

Oatmeal

It’s not only good for your health but a plant based diet is good for your budget.  A bowl of oatmeal makes a wonderful breakfast all year at a cost of a few cents per serving. 

There’s no need to buy processed cereal or to purchase the packets of instant oatmeal.  In it’s natural form oatmeal takes only minutes to cook anyway.  Why pay extra money for something that’s ALREADY a convenience food? 

You can cook it on the stovetop, in the microwave, or in the slow cooker.  Add summer fruits when they’re in season or get in the spirit of fall and add apples and cinnamon or even stir some pumpkin into your cereal.  You can add walnuts to make a healthy food even healthier and stir in peanut butter for added protein.  Top with maple syrup or date sugar and breakfast will feel like a real treat. 

If you’ve got leftover you can add some sauteed onions and leftover rice and bake it or fry it as a side dish for lunch or dinner.

You can make muffins or pancakes  or add it as a topping to streusel. 

If you want to “cut carbs” we suggest eliminating the spongy square slices that come wrapped in cellophane, or the boxed dinners with neon colored cheese.

Save money.  Save your health.
