Part of the journey to improved and better health is reviewing my cooking habits and ingredients. I made chicken soup last night with veggies. This sounds healthy until I tell you that I added these two spices. Steak and Chops and Chicken Stock. Now I have 2 opposing views. The one view is that it's ok to add the spices I enjoy to make the food taste great. The spice will not make/break my diet goals. I do lean to this side. The other opposing view has to do with the possible impact these types of spices may have on my goals long term. The steak and chops contains wheat and sugar and other things. The chicken stock is made with maltodextrin. These are some of the things that contribute towards insulin resistance. I know that spices are in small doses and that is why I am conflicted. A small dose once in a while may be ok but overtime, it does add up. I want to reverse insulin resistance and I want to be insulin sensitive for the rest of my life going forward. This is not a weight loss journey for me but rather a complete lifestyle change whose focus is lifelong health. What I definitely do not want is to get back to where I am now. The habits I am practicing now are the habits I want to have for the rest of my life. This will involve something as seemingly insignificant as a spice.

When it starts to get not as easy as before, when it starts to be challenging, when you are tempted to stop, when you are tempted to give up, when it starts requiring more effort than before, when it's no longer exciting, when you start dreading it, when it's no longer as fun as it used to be ... KEEP GOING BECAUSE IT IS WORKING! Ignore your feelings and carry on. Push past the pushback and stay on track. This is what it means to trust the process. It's ignoring the siren song to quit, go slower, less intensity, cut it short. But rather doing what you should despite those feelings and temptations. Tough days will come and do will challenging times, you just keep going. keep at it. Your goals are on the other side.

If you feel that you have not followed your plan as well as you would want to, don't give up, do throw in the towel, don't go on a stricter plan. Instead, continue where you left off and aim for a longer streak.
