When I started my journey, I felt overwhelmed by all the things I thought I had to do...cut out entire food groups, work out for hours a day, or give up everything I loved. Sound familiar? 😅 But here’s the surprising thing - the biggest shift happened when I made just one tiny change. 🤯 And it had nothing to do with restriction or willpower (because you need to know that restriction and willpower will eventually give way if we're depending on them to lose weight). So what was this one simple change? I simply started adding a high-protein breakfast every morning. 🍳🥑 In my old way of doing things, I tried A LOT of methods to lose excess weight. At one point I used to skip breakfast (aka intermittent fasting) every day. Before that, I used to grab something quick like a smoothie, a muffin or a granola bar. In all these failed experiments though, I’d end up starving by 10 a.m., craving sugar, and feeling like I was on a blood sugar roller coaster all day. 🎢 So, I decided to try something new. Instead of skipping breakfast, I’d have a protein-packed meal like eggs, a protein fuelled smoothie or greek yogurt parfait (note that some of my easiest fastest high protein breakfasts are in my Midlife Metabolism Jumpstart Guide {download it here}. And the results were wild! ✨ I felt full and satisfied for hours. ✨ My cravings for sugar and snacks disappeared. ✨ I had more energy and focus throughout the morning. ✨ And the best part? I started losing weight without struggling. The lesson here? It’s not about making drastic changes all at once – it’s about finding small, sustainable tweaks that make a big impact. 💪 So, here’s my challenge for you this week: Try adding a high-protein breakfast each morning and see how you feel. If you already do this, awesome! Share your go-to breakfast ideas in the comments – let’s inspire each other! 🥳👇 You don’t have to overhaul everything at once. Start with one small change and watch how it ripples out into the rest of your day.

You’re going out, and when you go to get dressed, this happens… You put on your outfit—something other than stretchy yoga pants, PJs, or sweats—and it doesn’t fit. It’s too tight, or you just don’t feel comfortable in it, let alone confident and attractive. Suddenly, any excitement or happy anticipation of going out drains from you. You no longer want to face the world because you simply don’t feel comfortable in your own skin. So, you put back on your comfy clothes and stay home. But you still don’t feel comfortable. You still don’t feel good about yourself. In fact, you feel miserable and frustrated. You start telling yourself a negative story. You want to go out and do all the things you want to do. You want to fully participate in life and enjoy every moment. You want to show up and be fully present for yourself and your loved ones. You don’t want to look back on your life with frustration and regret. But you don’t know what to do. You feel defeated. You feel cranky and impatient with those around you. You might even lash out at them because you’re hurting inside. It’s hard to find happiness in those moments because when you don’t feel comfortable in your own skin, everything feels off. And you’ve tried all the things. You don’t know what you’re doing wrong. You don’t know what the next step is. You don’t know what’s wrong with you. Why can’t you figure this out? You want more energy. You want to have fun with the people you love most. You want to create good memories and have strong, healthy relationships. You want to live a life without regrets—a better quality of life. A happy life where you feel good about yourself, where you’re energized, enthusiastic, and free. But how the hell do you get there? You’ve tried so many times to figure this out, but nothing has worked. If this resonates with you, know that I have lived that exact scenario countless times. When I was going through this (for years), it was excruciating. I ruined so many happy events because it was hard for me to show up in my life when I felt so awful inside.

I invite YOU to join me in the challenge to take a 10 minute (or longer) walk after each meal for the next 7 days (or longer if you want!). Walking is one of the best things you can do for yourself. This form of exercise is called Low Intensity Steady State (aka LISS). This simple act: ✔allows your body to send some of the energy from the food you ate into your leg and butt muscles (instead of being stored in fat tissue) ✔dramatically drops your postprandial blood sugar (your after meal blood sugar - good for weight loss and overall health) ✔increases your energy levels ✔helps your body become more insulin sensitive (what we want) and less insulin resistant (what we don't want) ✔helps elevates moods ✔supports your sleep and wake hormones for better rest (important for weight loss and overall health) ✔helps to decrease your stress levels ✔helps to decrease food cravings ✔helps to reduce symptoms of anxiety, depression and SAD (seasonal affective disorder) Are you going to join me? Let me know if you're in by commenting below and share a pic of you on one of your walks! At the end of 7 days, come back here and let us know what your experience was like and if you're going to keep it up for longer!
