75: PCS Series: Top 3 tips for not letting a PCS derail your diet with retired Navy wife Lizzie

Today’s show is a little different topic. We are going to talk health and wellness and how to maintain that through a PCS.

We have Lizzie on today who is a nutrition coach and retired Navy wife. She is a published author with a really novel idea of looking at what is happening in our brains before tackling our health and fitness goals. 

This episode is coming at the end of our PCS series and we are going to focus on how to stay on track with your health and nutrition even through a PCS. 

Step one is that we know it’s coming right? So we can mentally prepare that we might not be eating and exercising 100% the way we want too and THATS OK!

Give yourself small goals that you know you can be successful at. Don’t set the bar too high, our brains need those little wins to be able to keep going! 

Strive for imperfection consistently. 

Give yourself self compassion, this is a hard season, and we are just trying to make it through. Self compassion is much for effective for our brains than self criticism.

Some tactical tips to keep yourself on track during a PCS:

-what are some quick dining options your family likes? McDonalds? Chipotle? Look for the healthiest thing on the menu and get that. Plan for those eating out periods

-again, small wins. What is one thing you can focus on? Drinking 60oz of water a day? Eating at least one veggie per day? Walking for at least 15 minutes per day?

keep it small to allow for those little wins everyday
