how to lose weight, a diet for humans

if you were to gain 1kg just by eating fast food once,
would you still eat it?

what if you were to lose 1kg every time you went to the gym,
how often would you go?

I wrote about small choices, instant gratification and consistency before

if you bring these ingredients together and add the super secret sauce I’m about to share with you,
you’re looking at the perfect recipe to achieving anything.

full disclosure, I stole borrowed this recipe from Darren Hardy (he probably has it from his grandma) and it goes like this…

small smart choices + consistency + time = radical difference

sounds delicious, doesn’t it?

the super secret sauce, as you can probably tell, is thyme time,
I know it’s an acquired taste and not a lot of us know how to work with it,
but once you do – game changer.

I’m being facetious in my wording, clearly, for good reason,
us humans are horrible at putting time in perspective.

“nobody intends to become obese, go for bankruptcy or get a divorce but often, if not always, those consequences are the result of a series of small poor choices”

while great displays of Herculean effort make for a good story,
you’re better off reading a different cookbook.

I’ll see you tomorrow.

today is day 245 of the year, there are 120 days remaining of 2022.
