1. You WILL lose weight but it takes time, dedication and trust.
Remember to give yourself credit for all of the little things along the way. Notice how you FEEL. Do you have a little more energy? Do you feel healthier? Those are signs that you’re doing great. Keep going! Sometimes when you’re stressed or you’ve been carrying extra weight for many years (or your entire life), the process to shedding weight may take a bit longer. Your body needs time to adjust and recognize it’s safe before gently releasing the weight. Sometimes pounds melt off effortlessly, sometimes you need to practice patience. But don’t give up on yourself, persistence pays off. Look at Judy’s incredible transformation photo above, she got there because she didn’t give up and you can get there too!

2. Remember You’re WORTH It.
You deserve to experience a life where you look and feel your very best. You are worth the time and energy required to make a lifestyle shift and put in a few hours of meal prep each week. Busy moms often spend so many of their years looking after everyone else that they forget or even feel guilty when it’s time to give themselves extra attention. Take it from me, loving yourself first will not only make you a better person, but you’ll also show your kids that self-love is important! Here’s a Meal Prep recipe for Deconstructed Chicken Burrito Bowls to get you started.
3. Believe You’ll Succeed, Or You Won’t.
You have everything you need to experience transformation, but without belief in yourself and the process, you’ll remain stuck. When you’re feeling doubtful, remind yourself WHY you’re doing this. I suggest writing down a list of reasons why you want to succeed with Clean Eating and what the benefits of those results will be. Post them up somewhere in your kitchen, bathroom or bedroom and let those fuel you in times when you need motivation. Seek support in our free CleanFoodCrush Clean Eating Challenge Group too, we’re always there for you.
4. Your Life Will Improve Dramatically When You Feel Healthier.
Looking great and fitting into new clothes is fun, absolutely. Want to know what’s even better? Feeling energized, confident and inspired in life! We’ve all heard you are what you eat, and it’s so true. If you eat foods that bring you down, you’ll experience more inflammation, fatigue, and mood-swings. Clean Eating is a gift to your body, mind and spirit. When you put clean fuel in your body you’re saying “I’m Worth it” and leading by example. Even the simplest changes like drinking lemon water daily will help you stay motivated by improving how you feel.
5. Clean Eating is a Lifestyle You Can Be Proud Of.
This is for you, and for your family. But have you considered the impact your lifestyle will have on those around you? You may not see it yet, but through committing to Clean Eating and transforming your own life, you’ll inspire so many others around you. It may not be obvious at first, but people are always watching. Other moms at school, the people you work with, and your closest family and friends may eventually notice the changes you’ve made and become inspired to ask you for recipes like this Spicy Taco Quinoa Skillet recipe your family will LOVE! At the very least, you’ll show others that change is possible! Being a positive role model is empowering, and you’ve got what it takes.
