Eat: Portobello mushroom omelette recipe (Day 27)

This is your last rest day of the program, and I want you to use it to think. Go back through everything you've done so far this month and find out what clicked and what didn't. You need to start planning ahead, because the goal of this program was to jump start you, not a means to an end.




August starts soon, and it begins with a long weekend, so don't derail things with inactivity and a lousy diet. The purpose was to give you an idea of how awesome healthy eating and regular activity can be, and if you've stuck with things this far you're in great shape to keep going (literally).




We've given you a good feeling for what to do moving forward, but it's time to cut the cord and let you fly free. Just make sure you use that freedom wisely by taking your health and fitness to a higher level rather than fall back into old habits.



Think back to what things were like at the beginning of this process and compare them to what they're like now. You should be feeling more energized, sleeping better, and have a more positive mood and outlook. You may have lost some inches as well, but don't fret if you haven't. That's something that takes much longer than many Internet ads and infomercials would have you believe.




Take these good feelings and use them to bind yourself to the promise to keep it up.
