Progress, not perfection

Perfection is a moving target, and chasing it often leads to all-or-nothing thinking: one "off" meal and the whole day feels ruined. But health isn't built on perfect days. It's built on what you do most of the time.

I encourage my clients to follow a 90/10 approach: nourishing choices about 90 percent of the time, with room for celebrations, treats and real life in the other 10.

Try this: at the end of today, write down three things you did that supported your health, no matter how small. That's progress, and it counts.
