DIET redux

The word diet comes from the Greek root “diaita” — to live one’s life +  the Latin root “diaeta — a manner of living.  


Today, diet simply means food restriction.

Calorie counting. Work. Guilt. Stress.

Let’s bring back the original definition of the word diet — meaning LIFESTYLE + ask ourselves:

How do I want to live my life?

How do I want to feel each day?

Do you want to live with energy, vitality + vigor? Do you want a strong, lean body + skin that glows? If you do, then creating sustainable food + wellness habits that promote radiant health, joy + yes, even optimal weight, won’t seem so difficult.

Next time you mindlessly reach for a snack, think to yourself does this align with my vision of how I want to live my life?  If not, toss it out and reach for something that does!

#thisisgrounded:  lifestyle over diet. Don’t diet, reframe, think big picture.
