"Get Fit at Boot Camp? What are you @#!!! Crazy?"

–

Today I talked with a great boot camper who confessed something.

She told me she had to break up with her boyfriend…

…over boot camp!

Wow.

Well…

You know…

So often, when people profess the desire to join Portland Boot Camp, they receive derision from so-called friends, family, or even spouses.

As soon as those unfortunate women so much as whisper they are joining, they receive derogatory remarks.  Sometimes the remarks are subtle.  The “friend” may pretend to feel concerned and say things like, “But you don’t need to lose weight – who wants to do all that exercise – it’ll never work – you’ve tried other plans and classes before, why waste  your money?”

Now, sometimes they are right.  Maybe the person HAS tried a lot of different things and they are expressing genuine concern.

But quite often the harsh reality is:

they aren’t concerned at all.

Instead, they feel threatened.

They know, subconsciously, if their target dares to improve themselves, then they will have to face their own feelings, insecurities, and growing self-dissatisfaction.

For them, the easiest way to avoid self-improvement is to attack others for trying.

Fortunately, there are ways to handle these  would-be success-interrupters.

Here are a few examples.

You could:

• Ignore them until they give up trying to bait you.
• You can firmly tell them you have made a decision and are sticking to it.
• Walk away from them and discontinue the relationship.

Let’s get real here: if someone wants to stop you from getting fit, they have issues.  And perhaps it’s time to think about whether they add value to your life or rob you of your right to improve your life as you see fit.

Here are a few favorite phrases of the fitness haters…

“Oh, come on.  One piece won’t hurt!”

“Just a bite!  LIVE a little…it’s so good you won’t believe it!”

Or…

“Running?  Oooh I hate running.  Why would you want to do that?”

“Oooh.  Exercise.  We’re all gonna die anyway.  What’s the point?”

The whole charade is designed to make the receiver feel guilty or negative about self-improvement.

But it’s all designed to give the antagonist psychological relief from having to exert EFFORT for self-change.

As they say, “Misery Loves Company.”

So true.

So true.

Stay the course.  Decide what is right for YOUR life.

And if it is Portland Boot Camp…

I will be there with you, and for you as always.

Live long and laugh a lot,

If you are interested burning flab in Portland Boot Camp (or anywhere else)…

Food is either your friend or foe.

It all depends on what and how much you consume.

Consume the right foods in the right amount…

And BAM!

Bye bye extra body fat.

So, to make sure you get there as fast as possible here are 8 tips to point you in the right direction:

1. Cut the white stuff. Try to avoid rice, pasta, bread, cereal, and sugar.
2. Consume a lean protein every time you eat. If you are pressed for time get a box of Certified Organic Prograde Craver Nutrition Bars and use them as a healthy snack.  Get Cravers
3. Don’t drink your calories. Cut fruit juice, pop, alcohol etc.
4. DRINK MORE WATER. I can’t emphasize this enough.  It is the world’s most potent weight loss drink.
5. Include more omega-3 fats in your diet.  One of the best strategies is to eat more fish, Omega-3 eggs, walnuts, almonds and flax seed.  I take the highest qulaity Krill oil supplement I can afford.  Learn about it here: Benefits of Krill
6. Eat more veggies.  Especially raw, cruciferous veggies like broccoli.  In fact, eat them with every meal.  Even breakfast.  (Think 3 egg Omega-3 omelet with spinach and mushrooms..mmmmm!)
7. Buy a steamer and use it. It cuts veggie cooking time by a huge margin.  Set it and forget it easy.
8. When eating out, choose a lean protein and veggie dish. Aim for two fists worth of veggies and one worth of protein if you are visual.

There you have it.

8 Boot Camp eating tips to help you get where you want to go…healthier and faster.
