Motivation monday #4

Published: Aug 1, 2016 · Modified: Nov 9, 2017 · 2 Comments

Hi, guys! Happy new week to you all ;)

Hope you had a great weekend and that you recharged your batteries to full. It’s Monday, and it’s time to jump happily into another busy week ahead us. Of course, I’m here to motivate you ;)

My weekend was really great. I had enough time to relax. We eat good and healthy and spend time together as a family. On Saturday I did huge grocery shopping. I literally ravaged local farmers market and filled my fridge to full with fresh fruits and veggies. That’s why I’m so happy. Haha :D I usually shop every day in local store, but this Saturday, farmers come to my town offering locally grown fresh produce. A verity of food really amazed me. It was like Christmas morning to me! It reminded me why I LOVE summer season so much. Isn’t just wonderful, now at the peak of the summer, when you walk into the store, and you have shelves full of fresh produce? Aren’t marketplace tables just beautiful, filled with all that colors? Two years ago, I didn’t notice much all that gorgeousness. Today, when I walk into the store, there’s only one direction for me – straight to fresh fruit and vegetable department :) Other products, like cookies, chips, sugary drinks… is like they don’t even exist for me.

It’s really a nice feeling to get rid of all those unhealthy habits and be free. To eat without much thinking, relaxed, knowing that everything you put in your body is good and healthy. I achieved that freedom, by permanently changing my habits. I made that change, but it was not something I did overnight. It was not something temporary too. It was long term change, and I slowly worked on my new healthier habits until they become my lifestyle.

Today I want to motivate you to do the same. Free yourself from bad habits. If you still haven’t started your change, start it now. Summer is just perfect time for lifestyle change because there’s variety of fresh fruits and veggies available literally on every corner. How not to eat healthy when all that colorful fresh produce is calling you from the store shelf. It’s really easy to eat healthy during summer time! :)

But skip the diets. Think long-term. Just eat healthy, fresh and seasonal, and slowly build your new healthier habits. Enjoy the benefits of nature and feel how healthy food affects your health. When you start feeling better, when you start bursting with energy and happiness, when your body gets used to a new healthy food, you will stop thinking about cookies, sweet or junk food. I promise you that! ;)

Have a great Monday peeps! Eat healthily and stay happy all week!

Love,

NH-signature

    I’m happy that you’re happy with your eating and lifestyle now! :) It’s wonderful that you’ve become so enthusiastic about fruits and veggies. Note that I’m currently chomping on a huge carrot and feeling a bit like a rabbit. Lol. ;) You’re keeping me motivated, Natalie! I’m sticking to the fruits and veggies next time I go grocery shopping! :)
