I find it interesting the thing I hear people say when I share what I am doing. “Wow, you’re so dedicated” or “I can’t run 2 minutes much less 16.” Or my personal favorite “But it is so expensive”.  I have come to realize not everyone wants to change; I mean really wants to change enough to do something about it. And you can’t make people change even if you know how much better they will feel. Excuses are just how they live with indecision. Let me share with you a story I read at another website:

A few years ago some scientists conducted an experiment involving a little frog. In their lab was a vat of steaming, boiling hot water. They wanted to determine how the frog would react when dropped into the vat.

Armed in their white aprons, clipboards, pencils, goggles, and rubber gloves, they held the squirming little frog over vat. Focusing intently on what they were about to do they dropped the frog …

ZING!!!

Faster than a bolt of blazed lightning that little guy burst into the air, careening off the ceiling!

“Hmmmmm,” the scientists murmured amongst themselves.

They did it again. Same frog, same vat of steaming water and …

ZING!!!

It blasted from that vat like a bat out of Hades!

The scientists murmured amongst themselves again, recorded their notes, and decided to take the experiment a step further. They took the same frog, and held it over a different vat of water. Only this time the water was lukewarm, not too cold, and not too hot just right. They dropped the frog and …

NOTHING!!!

The little guy just laid there, floating lazily; arms and legs splayed gently on the water’s surface. You can just imagine the frog’s thoughts: Man, this is all right! This is perfect.

The frog lay in the water contented, happy, and relaxed. But – What the frog didn’t know was that underneath the vat was a raging fire. It was slowly, but surely, heating the vat of water. The contented frog, oblivious to the changing temperature, boiled to death. End of story.

You’re probably thinking to yourself: what a terrible story.

Think again. Apply this story of the frog to that of your own life right now. If any of you are like me, then you’ve probably come to a startling revelation. If you are really serious about being successful in achieving your goals in life, you need to make some changes.

The flip side of this is you can’t make that warm little frog get out of that water either if he doesn’t want to. All we can do is tell him about the fire and try and help him out of the pot. I didn’t realize how close to boiling I was in my life until this diet. I am in better shape than I have ever been in my life because I am not tired I have the energy to live my life not nap through it. I pray you see the mirror held up to your life and can identify if your over the fire, need help to keep the pot away or are trained and far from the pot but want to make sure you are never near it. That is the best part about this shake you can use it to lose weight, maintain weight or to add as an after workout protein boost. Please let me help you stay away from the boiling pot.

In health,
