WELL HELLO SUPERSTARS!

Today it's saturday. 

Did you cave friday night and succumbed to temptations?

Or did you stay strong and determined, today you woke up relieved you did not let your mind seduce you?

Why do I remind you about committing to stay in defeed mode?

You want to get leaner, you want to see your muscle definition.

But you also want to indulge and 'enjoy life', now there is a clear dilemma:

The ability to balance your indulgences is not as strong as your desires to forget about staying on plan because you can always start over MONDAY....

Oh I know that, that is why I want you to stay close to coach Pauline. 

I'm writing a new edition of FAT LOSS BY MIND POWER for the Fighterdiet academy but I'm naming it GET LEAN BY MIND POWER.

Guess why? YOU NEED IT.

You need motivation to stay on plan.

You have enough of 'it's ok, Darling, you're just human' from all other people who simply don't get it.

You're not suffering on a diet, you enjoy your healthy eating.

That does not mean you're eating for your goal to get leaner, it can even make you justify your choices, eat a little bit more of those favorite health foods. 

Like peanut butter. Or fruit. Or an extra chicken breast since it's only protein so it does not count. 

DOES THIS SOUND FAMILIAR?

I know. I too need to keep myself in check many times.

Why does it matter to stay true to the program for longer than a day or 5?

Because getting leaner, stronger and more skilled at maintaining your mind in the right direction, not get you to change the plan when the mind plays that devi's advocate game, AGAIN.

You are here because you want to master your body, you want to build, you want to feel invincible, in self control, not 'in handcuffs away from the refrigerator'.

Discipline requires the same focused and consistent practice as you put your muscles through in the gym.

You can't just choose 'now I am just not gonna cave, I'm going to rely on my willpower'. 

Well, will power does not last, it powers out and you then need to rely on remembering your goals, reminding you how you want to feel in the future, ask yourself if this is really the right choice today for your goal you're working for every day?

Today when the sugar cookies are calling your name in the end of the afternoon..... REMEMBER this is why I have you enrolled in my program. 

When you forget why you are in my Fighterdiet practice it is because you are not doing what you know you need to do nutrition wise and you are mad about it.

STAY FOCUSED. POBO YOUR WAY to stay on plan!

WATCH the Fighterdiet short videos for diet conundrums and thought provking moments about your concept of diet and what the struggles can be about.

FRIDAY MOTIVATION: YOU’RE NOT IN THE MOOD?

When I feel low and unmotivated, I call myself out:

Pauline, do you really need to feel like it first?

You have the privilege of being able to train. Your body may not let you do everything you want without limitations—but you get to train. That is more than many people can do.

I know you don’t feel like counting your blessings today.

So don’t.

But stay real.

I know you would rather crawl under the sheets with a big pint of ice cream and chocolate and forget about the day.

But you are not escaping reality.

Tomorrow still comes. And tomorrow, you will feel worse because today you started building momentum in the wrong direction.

If you want to get lean and strong—or stay lean and strong—choosing junk food and a sedentary lifestyle is moving directly against what you say you want.

What kind of mixed message are you giving yourself?

Would you tell someone else that this is how to reach their goal?

Every time you take the easy way out, you strengthen that choice. You become the sum of your choices.

That is how you got here.

That doesn’t mean staying here won’t require upkeep and discipline.

So I ask myself:

If I wrote a book about how I lived my life, what would I want that book to say about me?

Would I want to read about someone who kept waiting for perfect conditions before she acted?

Do you really want to be that person?

Nobody would want to read that book.

Not even you.

Motivation fluctuates like a bag in the wind. Sometimes the wind carries it directly toward the goal. Sometimes it blows in the opposite direction.

I am not that bag.

I don’t want the weather, the season or today’s mood deciding who I become.

The choice is between waiting to be in the mood and making myself get in the mood.

I know exactly how to change my energy.

I put the music on. I create some anger and frustration. I shake myself awake and generate some real fire.

When you watch my pre-workout energizer routine, it is basically my own little tantrum warrior dance.

You might laugh because you think it looks embarrassing.

Who cares?

The goal matters more than looking cool.

My goal is to train like I’m insane—with fire, focus and everything I have.

So I use whatever helps me create that energy without sabotaging myself later.

No pre-workout supplement, caffeine hit or momentary high can create lasting drive. The boost always wears off.

I cannot build lasting commitment on temporary highs.

I have to accept that training means showing up, making it happen—and sometimes making myself happen.

The toughest workout is not the body.

It is the mind.

That is why I say:

I COACH THE MIND THAT BUILDS THE BODY.

Now let’s train.

YOU ARE HERE where I train and coach. You got all you need to do this!
