If you’ve ever thought, “Well, I’ve blown it now – I’ll start again Monday,” you’re not alone.
That’s the voice of all-or-nothing thinking.
And it’s the fastest way to stay stuck in poor health, poor nutrition, and lack of self-esteem.
I’ve talked to so many women who do this – they eat one thing “off plan,” miss a workout, or have a few glasses of wine and think the whole week is ruined.
But that’s not failure.
That’s just life.
Your body doesn’t hit a reset button every Monday.
It responds to what you do most of the time, not some of the time.
I had a client, Tracey, who used to fall into this pattern constantly before we started working together.
She’d be “perfect” for a week, then have one takeaway night and spiral into guilt, bloating, and self-sabotage.
When we shifted the focus to consistency instead of perfection, everything changed.
She started seeing food as feedback - not punishment.
Her inflammation dropped, her clothes loosened, and she stopped labelling herself as “good” or “bad.”
All-or-nothing thinking is sneaky - it convinces you that if you can’t do everything, it’s not worth doing anything.
But healing your metabolism, balancing hormones, and calming inflammation happen through repetition, not restriction.
Small, imperfect actions - done consistently - always beat one “perfect” week followed by giving up.
✨ My 3-Week Inflammation Detox Diet starts December 1st - normally $333, now $120.
