Don't Strive for Perfection

Lifestyle balance is just like just like balancing on one leg - you have to constantly make small adjustments to compensate for a shift in the balance. These adjustments are not the correcting of mistakes, rather they are needed in order to keep balancing and not fall over!

MORE INFORMATION:
You don't have to be perfect on any given day/week/month. If you went over your calorie range today, just know that you should stay in the low end tomorrow. If you missed a workout on your birthday, then do an extra one next week. It's all about achieving that balance so you don't fall down!
