Excuses, Excuses, EXCUSES…

Just in from Rob….

Lewis I’ve got ask you…do you really want to lose more fat? 

I ask this because as with most anything else one aspires to achieve in life, most simply would LIKE to lose more fat, but simply don’t WANT to lose it bad enough…

…it’s kind of like in competitive athletics.  E.veryone would like to win rather than lose, but there are very few that are driven with a purpose… 

…those that WANT to win…in fact, they MUST win to be satisfied, and nothing less will do.

As you might imagine I get loads of emails from readers of this newsletter and my FBF eBook every day about a variety of subjects…and you know what I hear the most? 

excuses, Excuses, and more EXCUSES about why this or that person can’t lose their body fat.

Look, I know there are some REAL issues out there, but for the most part the excuses I hear are just hollow reasons that keep most people from succeeding with their fat loss and fitness goals-

-so, I wanted to go over with you some of the top excuses I hear about every day from would be fat burners, so you can judge for yourself… 

…are they holding YOU back?  If so, what can YOU do about them right now?  And ultimately, what kind of person are you really?

Someone who would like to win…or someone who MUST win…

—————————————————————-

Hollow Excuse #1: "I Can’t Find The Time To Eat Right" 

Look, we’re all busy, but how is it that some people can do it and others just complain about not having enough time to cook healthy meals or prepare healthy snacks? 

Do you want it or don’t you?  Get serious, get organized, and prepare your meals/snacks the day before if you must.  Cook in large quantities, for the whole week even, so that you can refrigerate or fre.eze the leftovers to eat at later meals throughout the week.  This is less time spent cooking and more time spent enjoying delicious healthy foods.

Carry healthy snacks with you.  Keep some at the office.  Keep some in your car…make it easy on yourself so you’re not stuck in a hunger panic at the nearest fast food restaurant. 

Hollow Excuse #2: "I Can’t Find The Time To Exercise" 

Again, I’m busy too.  But seriously, if you can’t find 15-26 minutes two to three times in a week (as we use in the FBF workouts), you need to fix your schedule.  That’s less than 1 hour p.er week out of the available 168 hours.  Are you even a little bit serious about losing more fat?  Yeesch! 

Hollow Excuse #3: "Healthy Food Is Too Expensive"

I know that this is true in some cases, but you must realize where most of your grocery money is going…to the stuff in the boxes on the shelves…not to the stuff that is grown and comes out of the ground. 

Are organic fruits and veggies more costly than non organic varieties?  Sure, but cutting down on the next few box of cheesie poofs will more than make up for it.

Plus, once you start eating more nutrient rich foods, you’ll automatically eat less…which means you’ll be b.uying less too. 

Hollow Excuse #4: "I Hate Exercise/Diets/Water, etc."

Oh really?  Well I bet you don’t hate those things as much as I
hated being more than 40 pounds overweight, having low energy, and basically sleepwalking through life for 10 years.  Of course, I found that you don’t have to go on "diets" to succeed. 

Decide what YOU hate more and be prepared to live with your answer. 

Hollow Excuse #5: "I Eat Out All The Time"

OK, first, you can eat out and still eat reasonably healthy and keep that fat burning furnace going.  BUT, you can’t expect to
eat out too often…the healthy choices are restaurants are far and few in between.

Eat out for special occasions…even once or twice a week is fine.  Don’t let it become a every day event or you’ll look like you eat out every day…makes sense doesn’t it?

Hollow Excuse #6: "It’s Too Expensive For A Gym Membership" 

Really?  How much do you spend a month eating out?  On fast food?  On DVD’s you end up watching once and other miscellaneous expenses?

Here’s a better question:  How much are you willing to pay for medical costs and the time spent at the doctor and the hospital as you get older and your health starts to break down?

The longer you can avoid this scenario the better…and all for 30-50 bucks a month or less?

Why not get yo.ur own gym at home like I have?  All you really need is a simple bench and a set of Powerblock Dumbbells (editors note: we have a set and LOVE them)

Hollow Excuse #7: "I’ve Tried Everything…Nothing Works For Me"

My guess is you’ve tried everything for a few weeks at a time, never giving ANYTHING long enough to see if it will really work for you.

This is where most people end up after trying fad diet after fad diet.  That’s why diets don’t work in the long run.

Instead, try integrating some of the tips I give you each week into your existing lifestyle.  Before you know it, you’ll have totally reshaped how you eat, exercise, and metabolize calories.

—————————————————————-

Alright, there’s 7 of the top hollow excuses I see from readers all the time.  Believe me, there are a lot more…but we’ll save  those for another day…So-

-again, ask yourself: ..are excuses like these holding YOU back?  

If so, what can YOU do about them right now?  And ultimately, what kind of person are you really? 

Someone who would like to win…or someone who MUST win…
