Only a Few People Can Say This Word….

Only a Few People Can Say This Word….

It’s a word that has been used for ages, but not many people like to use it. Do we forget the meaning? Do we forget that it exists? Why do we have a

hard time pronouncing it? The word NO. Don’t stop reading. Let me inform you how important this word is to your health.  When was the last time you said “NO!” to your co-worker who offered you a sweet treat? When was the last time you told yourself “NO!” when it came to going through the

drive-thru? When was the last time we decided to say “NO!” to the urge to be lazy for the day and to not get active?

The word no has sabotaged good people into making bad choices. How many pounds would we have saved ourselves if we would have just used the word? The word no exists for a reason. When used in its proper placement, it’s a very powerful word. The truth is, you don’t have to be a YES MAN! You have a right to say NO to any temptation. Did you know that temptation does not dictate you? Did you know that you have the power to overcome it?

Saying NO gives you freedom. It gives you control over yourself and your cravings. When we master the art of saying NO, we will see a our health under a different light. I was a YES MAN to food for a long time. It wasn’t until I started to say NO to my cravings that I started to lose weight. It’s then I started to shed unwanted weight. It’s then I became stronger at the buffets, the dinner tables and at work. Remember that your life matters. Treat it like it does. By saying NO to things that will hurt you, you will put you back in charge of your life, and that will help you become a stronger person to stand up underneath your temptations. YOU CAN BE SET FREE! Let’s say it together. NO!
