The main thing about the Football Diet is to focus on one day, or at the most one week, at a time. Lose a pound this week. Don\u2019t gain a pound this week. It\u2019s all about making first downs, moving the chains, rather than scoring a touchdown. But that doesn\u2019t mean you can\u2019t have a bigger goal. Just don\u2019t get too wrapped up in it, and don\u2019t measure yourself against it all the time.<\/p>\n
With the Football Diet, you aren\u2019t going to score by throwing an 80 yard touchdown pass. You\u2019re going to work you way down the field one play at a time and then score with a run straight up the middle.<\/p>\n
But when you do finally score a touchdown, when you reach a big milestone, do a fabulous dance in the end zone. Celebrate!<\/strong> Here are the keys to a great end zone dance in the Football Diet:<\/p>\n The best end zone dance will be a great celebration with your friends that doesn\u2019t set you back and take points off the board. As you approach your goal, think about something you love to do, with others, that\u2019s healthy. A great concert, 50 yard-line seats at the next game, a weekend trip, an entire weekend without doing anything useful! Plan it in advance so you have extra motivation to meet your goal, and so you don\u2019t pick an end zone dance that will draw a penalty because you ate too much and went right back over your target weight.<\/p>\n Continue to Blocking & Tackling: Build on Your Strengths<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" The main thing about the Football Diet is to focus on one day, or at the most one week, at a time.
