I realized how far I’ve come mentally when on Monday morning I woke up to the news my mawmaw was gone. My last living grandparent, the one who I loved like a mommy. The one who loved me unconditionally and made sure I knew it. I went straight to the gym and worked out. Everyone has been shocked that I’ve been there daily since, but it’s the place I run to when life is heavy, This is to remind all of you to keep going. Show up for yourself. The girl who joined this platform 2 years ago would not done this love y’all Most definitely keep me in prayer my heart is broken

TAKING ACTION: ✅Post pics of your Color Challenge in the comments! ✅Where do you fall when it comes to eating candy or sweets? Are you able to practice proactive discipline and only enjoy a few pieces, or do you keep eating it once you start? Speaking of sugar, I often see other coaches advising their clients in one of two ways when it comes to eating the Halloween candy that’s lining the grocery aisles right now ⬇️ 👉 Don’t eat the candy 👉 Enjoy a few pieces of candy The problem is that—it’s not that simple. There are nuances that we need to factor in. It’s important to first understand your unique cravings, body, and thoughts. What works for me may not work for you—and that’s okay! For example, some people do better by allowing themselves to enjoy some of their favorite foods because complete restriction does more harm than good. On the other hand, complete restriction from certain foods may be the best option for some due to the fact that they can’t stop eating said food once they start. The question you need to ask yourself is, “Where do I fall regarding this?” If you feel as though you need complete restriction around a certain food, don’t let that get you down. The reality is that while it feels tough to swallow right now, your taste buds and your brain will change. 💯 Ultimately, the answer to the question above is unique to you and your ability to control your sugar intake.

Let me know if you have any questions! ✅Check your pantry and chuck at least one item that contains processed sugar today! Happy Tuesday, friends! As I mentioned yesterday, we’re going to be talking about all things sugar this month—but before we get too far into it, let’s go ahead and cover the details of our monthly Color Challenge so you can get started! 🌈 As you know, our annual Sugar Detox is at the end of the month, but until then, I encourage you to slowly start reducing your processed sugar intake, which will reduce the frequency and severity of sugar spikes. I’m going to educate you on why this is important throughout the month. The first thing you need to know is that all sugar isn’t bad. In fact, your body needs sugar, but it doesn’t need it in the form of processed sugar. Instead, fruits and vegetables give you sugar packaged with fiber, water, and nutrients—so it enters your bloodstream more slowly than foods with processed sugars. The slower rise helps your body use the sugar for energy instead of sending insulin on a rollercoaster. 🎢 ⭐ To avoid overwhelm, our Color Challenge will start super simple this week and will change as we get further into the month. For this week’s Color Challenge, the goal is to consume at least TWO colorful fruits and/or veggies every day. This can be two fruits, two vegetables, or a combination of the two. We start today and end on Sunday. Please post your picture proof in the comments every day, and I will tally the totals on my end! Need a good starting place?
