Never Say Diet

Welcome Chantel Hobbs to my life. Never Say Diet is full of tips that helped her lose more than 200 pounds. Chantel has gone from being 350 pounds to losing 200 pounds and becoming a personal trainer and certified spinning instructor. The book was divided into headings entitled “Decide,” “Act,” and “Live.” Here are some things I have started doing since reading the book:

  • Wake up earlier in the morning
  • Eat breakfast
  • Drink 4 Liters of water a day
  • Start a food journal
  • Buy healthier foods
  • Eat more fruit
  • Walk more and begin to jog when possible
  • Eat smaller portion sizes

Some of these are small steps, but I am taking action none the less. One of the quotes that stuck out from the book was in response to the question, “Isn’t healthy food expensive?” Her answer was, “Doctors visits are expensive. Lipitor Prescriptions are expensive. Natural foods like eggs, apples, greens and oatmeal are cheap.” I could relate to this since I had very recently gotten my Lipitor prescription refilled.

The publisher sent me an extra copy of the book to give away to one of my readers. I will randomly pick a winner from someone who writes a posts about their goals this year that links back to this post. Leave a link to your post in the comments on this post and you will be registered for a chance at the book.

I look forward to reading your goals.

  1. So I wrote a post about this year’s goals a few weeks ago, but had yet to write about specifically about those concerning fitness. I wrote that one today. :)
