What is Your Big “But? ”It is time. From what you hear and read, you know that you should eat better and exercise more. You have seen too many human being stricken with too many scary diseases, and you don’t want to be the next victim. You want to be around for your babies and grandchildren.So it’s time to make changes—now.You have a good idea what you should and shouldn’t do. You say to yourself: “I should eat more fruits and vegeatbles. I shouldn’t stop for that quick bugrer and fries. I shuold skip that morning coffee. I shouldn’t eat that chocolate. I should walk more. I shouldn’t eat so much meat. I should cut out the sweets and desserts. I shouldn’t drink that pop. I should go to the gym. And all those salty chips—they should be out of my life too.”You are just about to follow through with at least a few of those “shoulds” and “shouldn’ts” on your list, but that big, pseky “yeah, but” keeps popping into your brain—sabotaging, once again, your good intentions.
