Cookies and Cream High Protein Shake
I am so confused being off on a Friday night! I've worked weekends for 20 yrs, so it's really strange when I have a weekend off.
I have been working really hard at my nutrition this week and since almost everyone is gone tonight I really thought about cheating and having something naughty to eat.
No, I didn't do it! I made this healthy Cookies and Cream shake instead and before you say anything I know chocolate graham crackers may not be the healthiest thing for you, but they're much lower in calories then real Oreos. You got to make some compromises somewhere, right?
It's these small compromises that I made that helped me to stay consistent with my weight loss plan that lead to my 150 lb weight loss. If I hadn't allowed myself to have some treats or some screw ups from time to time then I would have called it quites just like I had a hundred times before and once again I wouldn't have reached my goal.
But this time I had made my mind up that NO MATTER WHAT I was going to stick to my plan! A compromise is not a failure, it is using your mind and inner strength to overcome and obstacle. And sometimes your greatest obstacle is YOU. Your fear of failure. Your own self-doubt. Your negative past events paralyze you and keep you from realizing your goals.
