Closing down
I’ve loved building this space, but I’ve decided to close the Skool community. Instead of charging or maintaining a paid platform, I’m moving everything to my Facebook group so we can continue at no cost. Same mission. Same support. Easier access. 👉 Join us here: https://www.facebook.com/share/g/16hLCjfo16/?mibextid=wwXIfr I’ll see you there 💗
Sunday-itis
Sunday-itis — that feeling when you start dreading the week before it even starts. I’m blessed that I truly don’t dread my work. I love what I do. 💗 That said, I was still up early this morning getting my food prepped and my week set up for success. Who’s on board with planning for success this week? I’m resolved to be 100% on point. No excuses. I’m done letting food have power over me. 👇 Drop your strategies in the comments —or— Tell us what strategies you need help with. Let’s do this together. 💪✨

@Caitlyn Burke I haven’t made overnight oats in a while. This week I am having “egg sandwiches”

@Caitlyn Burke wow this sounds so good.
Walking pad
So I invested in a walking pad for my office at work to help get some extra movement in during the day at lunch! Today was the first day I tried it. I ate lunch with everyone like usual then excused myself and walked for the other 25 min! Loved having that me time!

Are they expensive?
Sunday Evening Check-In ✨
How did we do this today? - Meals prepped for a few days… or even the whole week? - Water intake on point? - Movement done? - Vitamins taken? Friendly reminder: the classrooms are open and free—go take a look if you haven’t yet. There’s some really solid info in there, and videos are coming soon. This is our first full week after the New Year. Let’s start it strong. 💪 We can do hard things—even one step at a time. Drop below: ✔️ One win from today 🎯 One goal for this week Let’s go 👇

@Tammy Brown Yes!!! 🙌 that’s a great plan. Taking a few moments to prepare rather than just doing what’s convenient!

@Rhonda Zook I’m not gonna lie. These last couple of months have been tough for me. You know, I guess if we can just be good 75% of the time and just keep adding a little more in every day.
WE DID IT!!
We did it. It’s Friday. We made it through the week. Some of us came out unscathed, others… not so much 😅 But either way, here we are. Whether you had a great week or a tough one, you made it—and that matters. As we head into the weekend, let’s be mindful. Remember: consistency is what allows for a few indulgences here and there. The key phrase is here and there. Before we move on, let’s reflect on the week and focus on the positives. Let’s not always zero in on what we did “wrong” or how hard we were on our bodies and ourselves. Let’s talk about the good things we did and start this weekend on a positive note. I’m working on my menu and will (hopefully) be posting a picture later today—so drop your wins below and let me see them 👇

@Antoinette Tovar ahhh ok so this is actually very normal in the bariatric world and is often called the bounce back. Your body usually hits a very low low, then settles into a weight it can comfortably maintain. That regain is typically around 10–15 pounds. For example, my lowest weight was 145, and my long-term maintenance is 165—almost a 20-pound difference. At 5’7” and 165, I’m healthy, comfortable, and stable. This phase isn’t failure—it’s your body finding balance and maintenance. Stay consistent and give yourself grace.
