If your diet doesn’t allow for a glass of wine and some delicious mozzarella then you’re on the wrong diet! (lactose intolerant and non drinkers excluded, you do you)
:
Your eating doesn’t have to be perfect or rigid.
:
In fact I’d rather see you eat well 80% of the time instead of being perfect.
:
Will your weight loss go slower if your diet is only 80% optimal? Yes. But you won’t be miserable. You can still have a life. You can have a date night. Bottom line, your fitness and nutrition will improve your life not totally consume it.
:
On the plate: marinated grilled chicken with avocado, basil, lemon and tomato relish topped with Burrata Mozzarella. Side dish lemon pepper air fried broccoli.
