Every day, sneaky saboteurs are trying to defeat you in the fat-loss war. Everyone – from family to friends to co-workers to restaurant owners to TV advertisers – is conspiring against you to make you eat more and exercise less.
They might not be doing it on purpose or with bad intentions, but they are happier when you are fed, full, and flat out on the couch.
So you must always know your options.
You must have Plans A, B, C, D, and E. You must be prepared to counterattack. When they say “pizza,” you say “sushi.” When they say “take-out,” you say, “I’ve already prepared my lunch.” When they say “happy hour,” you say “workout first.”
And you must surround yourself with people who are fitter and healthier than you. The power of social support and POSITIVE peer pressure will help you take your health and fitness to the next level.
