Restaurant Therapy

What the heck is restaurant therapy? Let me explain. Gina and I went out to dinner tonight since we both had a long week, but a productive one I might add. Everyday compounds on the day before and you start to see some movement and momentum in your business. Anyway, we were at this place, OK it was a pizza place, a rare outing for us. So we were sitting there waiting for our salad and my wife looked at me and said the most beautiful thing she could ever say to me. She said, "You know, I'm really not that hungry." That was music to my ears because she started taking these amazing Isagenix products and we looked at each other and it was definitely a moment I won't forget. She finally got it, but she had to do it at her own pace. In my mind I'm thinking, "I told you so." Of course, I didn't verbalize that but felt so good that Gina now understands the power of these products. She has been taking the 4 pillars for several weeks and has lost weight, feels better and has lost her cravings!

Ok, but what about the Post title? I'm getting to that right now. When I go to a restaurant now, and it doesn't matter what restaurant, I look around at the people sitting at their tables and stuffing these huge amounts of food in their mouths and I'm thinking to myself, "Do they have a clue what their doing to their bodies?" Wait a minute, Jay, you were at the restaurant so what about you? Well, I may eat like that once a month and I'm going to guess that most people eat like that several times a week, if not more. So it's therapy for me to sit and observe and know that I could have been just as happy to eat home and have a bowl of cereal or another shake! Food is meaningless to me and when you get to that point you know you have arrived at a really good place. You are not dependant on the food choices that are before you because I give my body what it needs everyday. Nutrition goes a long way and especially when you are on the product for some time. It actually works even better, if that is possible. So now when I look around the restaurant  all I see are PROSPECTS! The next time you go to a restaurant see if you have the same experience I did. Being in control is very powerful especially when it comes to food.
