Get Snobby With Your Extras!
I often get the question, “How do I fit alcohol into my nutrition plan? How do I fit sweets and treats into my nutrition plan? Can I have cake at birthday parties?”
Let me introduce my ‘Get Snobby with Your Extras’ strategy. But, before I do, this strategy doesn’t just apply to food. Let’s allow this strategy to apply to your life.
You are allowed to have any cocktail you want, but order the best one… and if it doesn’t taste exactly as you hoped - get snobby and say no. You can have cake at every single birthday party you attend for the rest of your life… but if the cake isn’t just how you would love it to be, toss it. Don’t eat the leftover Halloween candy… get the finest chocolate or candy of choice - and enjoy it.
Get snobby with the clothes you buy. I am not saying you have to spend more money. But buy the things that make you feel amazing. If the dress of your dreams bunches at the waist, send it back. If the boots squeeze your toes, don’t wear them.
Get snobby with who you surround yourself with. If you are finding yourself in toxic relationship situations, it is time to set some boundaries and say no.
Invest in yourself, invest in experiences.
This past weekend, I bought the bag I have wanted for 5 years. But, I didn’t just put it in my cart and buy it online. I went into the store, accepted the offered champagne (which was worth it), and bought my bag in person. I got snobby with my experience of buying a luxury item.
Get snobby with the way you talk to yourself. When you find yourself in negative self-talk, decide that it’s not welcome. Get snobby with what you make others' comments and actions mean about you.
Get snobby, just get snobby. You are a masterpiece. You make amazing contributions. You deserve the best.
