Failing to plan is planning to fail
Nutrition Nugget - Failing to plan is planning to fail
I've always found it surprising how many people just allow life to happen to them.
You've probably heard the adage - failing to plan is planning to fail. The same applies to our nutrition.
Most have no plan and no idea about what they're going to eat day to day. They just wake up and wing it.
BLUF: Planning your weekly meals is an essential behavior if you want to lose weight, build muscle, and optimize your healthspan.
Sure, there's a time and a place for spontaneity. It might be fun, even exciting sometimes. But it's seldom a solution for the stagnation which is most Americans' current state of health.
Why this matters: Nearly 3 out of 4 adults in the US are overweight or obese. Staggering.
Odds are that most of you reading this fall into those categories. Odds are that you've tried countless methods and fallen prey to innumerable fad diets and gimmicks to help you lose weight. Maybe for decades.
But you're still stuck. And you may be discouraged, even desperate.
That bums me out because many of the solutions for this are so obvious and available.
Like meal planning.
This one behavior, which takes about 10-20 minutes a week tops, could impact your weight, muscle mass, and health more than anything else you've tried.
Why do so few people do it?
It takes some time.
It can be tedious.
They don't know where to start.
They don't know what to plan.
They've never been taught how.
They don't have a readily available tool that makes it simple.
