Why do we feel guilty when we want to treat ourselves? We often find ourselves making excuses, talking ourselves out of it, or we just feel like if we indulge, we are going backwards...

NOT TRUE! Life is too short not to! We can't expect to make the progress we need, physically and mentally, if we let ourselves think that breaking the rules now and again is bad. 

I know, it's hard. When you feel like you're on track with your health and fitness the last thing you want to do is "ruin" it. Let me tell ya, an ice cream cone or candy bar once and awhile isn't going to "ruin" anything. If anything, you're going to lose your sanity for always telling yourself "No" and "you can't."

It's okay to enjoy yourself and the pleasures of life. It's only when we deprive ourselves that we start to lose control, not the other way around! So go ahead; give yourself permission to indulge a little this weekend. You don't need any other reason than, you can, you deserve to, and it's all going to be okay!
