It’s not you, it’s the system that was designed to fail you.
The reason is simple: Rigid meal plans strip out joy.
They force you to eat in isolation and collapse the second real life shows up.
Client dinners
Kids' birthday cake
Spontaneous weekends away
They require you to have a life that doesn't exist outside of a self-help book.
💸 Welcome to the 'Bank Account Diet.'
This is the system that works with your life, not against it.
The concept is simple:
2,000 calories = 14,000 calories
Weekly calorie target = Weekly Budget.
You are in charge of how you spend it.
Save some "money" (calories) during the week to splurge guilt-free on the weekend.
It's based on two things: flexibility and sustainability.
🤓 A 2017 study found that flexible dieting led to significantly greater long-term success than rigid plans.
Because people could actually stick with it, they didn't have to feel guilt when eating that office donut to celebrate Sandra's birthday.
Thrive365 Tip: The Freedom Framework
This isn't about another diet. It's about building a system that works when life gets messy.
Slot in the Joy. Start with the meals you already love and eat with your family.
Upgrade, Don't Cut. Upgrade staples instead of cutting them out (Yes, even dessert gets a place).
Focus on Progress, Not Perfection. The goal is to ditch the ‘all or nothing’ mindset forever.
My goal as a coach isn't to retain clients.
It’s to enable them to live a life free of self-sabotaging diet mentality.
To finally break free and start striving for progress over perfection.
Stop die-ting.
Start LIVING the lifestyle.
