Feast Day!!!

TAKING ACTION:

✅Tomorrow is our optional 24-hour fast. I’ll give you tips for success in tomorrow’s post. If you’re new here and unsure about our 24-hour fast, let’s chat below!

It’s Feast Day, and you know what that means! We are going to consume about 25% more nutrients today.

As mentioned yesterday, there are physiological/fat-loss benefits that occur when participating in Feast Day; however, we’re talking about mindset this week, so today, I want to give you some of the psychological benefits that come along with it:

1. Strategically eating more interrupts deprivation psychology and lowers the mental cost of dieting.

2. It weakens rigid “good food/bad food” or all-or-nothing thinking.

3. It gives you something concrete to look forward to, which protects motivation.

4. It reduces decision fatigue and food-related cognitive load for the day.

Everything we do here benefits both your body and your brain. 🧠

⬇️Helpful Feast Day Tips⬇️

🍽 Break your fast a little earlier than usual today. This will give you more time to consume the extra food today, without leaving you uncomfortably full.

🍽 Eat nutrient-dense (and high-quality) meals. Consider ways to add to each meal (e.g., adding nuts or seeds).

🍽 Have an extra snack—maybe a clean protein shake!

🍽 Don’t stress over the 25% target, and don’t force yourself to eat more if you’re satisfied. Any amount more is beneficial for your metabolism.
