I heard a saying once that goes don't get high on your supply.
It comes from drug dealers who use their own drugs. They get high on their own supply.
Not a great situation, but don't get high on your own supply is a great metaphor for the dangers of complacency.
What I mean is, it's really easy to get complacent and think that because you do well at something, you don't have to remain vigilant. You can let your guard down and let the rules slip.
For weight loss, it might look something like this...
You get a program, you clean out your cupboards, and you're ready to hit the ground running.
And you do! For that first week, you blow it out of the water.
You think, "Wow!! This is amazing!"
And then, IF you're not careful, you start getting high on your own supply.
Meaning, you get complacent and decide that if you can lose that much weight in a week, you can fudge the rules a little, sneak in extra food, and still drop a ton of weight without as much sacrifice.
You let things slip a little more and a little more, and pretty soon you're not losing anything because you got high on your own supply.
Getting high on your own supply can happen to anyone. A new Rebel, a maintenance Rebel, a veteran Rebel - ANYONE (me included).
So in this episode, I'm gonna cut through your cheat voice's sweet-talking and give you the no-B.S. reality you need to identify when you're starting to get high on your own supply, PLUS how to hit the brakes so you can make your weight loss stick this time.
