Finding your why-power with Cleveland Nutrition

By Dr. David Gutman, Cleveland Nutrition

I know this is a really busy time of year, and the last thing on your mind right now is losing weight, exercising, and eating healthier, but in a few weeks these will become the most common resolutions that Americans make.

Every year, millions of Americans spend an exorbitant amount of money signing up for gym memberships and joining commercial diet plans, while promising themselves that this year will be different. Unfortunately, studies show that about 90% of people don’t meet their goals.

There are many reasons why people drift back to their old habits, including lack of support, lack of accountability, and lackluster results from following a trendy internet plan that was never really sustainable from the start. In addition, many people rely on sheer willpower to change their behavior, but willpower doesn’t last. What you need is why-power.

So what’s your why? Your deeper motivation to change? Is it to prevent diabetes complications? Improve an autoimmune disease? Get off of medications? Or to just play with your grandkids? Once you identify your why, your mindset changes so that you see healthy changes as a welcome solution, not a restrictive burden.

At Cleveland Nutrition we help our patients find their why. We provide the personal support and attention you need to make meaningful and sustainable healthy lifestyle changes so that you can finally achieve the health transformation you truly desire.

As you may have guessed, our January schedule fills up quickly, so if you want to get started right after the holidays, call us now to beat the rush and secure your spot on our schedule for the new year.
