Success Is a Green Plan

by Kris Pitcher

How far have you come to waiver now? How many hours have you put in? How many ounces of chicken or fish have you weighed? I guess what I'm wondering is why do people quit. Quit and give up on what they've built.

It's never a perfect process. It's ever changing. We have times when we are right on and others when maybe due to life or health issues we need to back off. I think of it as a tide which ebbs and flows.

The truth is, it's hard. And most of the time we aren't working a plan that is sustainable...a green plan.

So maybe the question should be, "How green is your plan?" Could you sustain your level of exercise for the rest of your life?

Could you sustain your eating plan for ever? Give or take a tweak to it now and then. Truly, success is a green plan. A sustainable plan. A plan which isn't a burden to you. People waiver and give up because their plan isn't green. They can't sustain what they're doing.

When you're feeling burned out on your plan you need to evaluate it's sustainability. When you feel like you need a break, modify your plan rather than turning away from it all together. This is one of the keys to making this work long term.

You have what it takes to make this work, just as much as the next person. It isn't easier for anyone. It will be easier for you the greener your plan becomes. Take a look, you just might be able to green things up!
