Came across free donuts in the break room at work. Stopped and stared at them for a moment. I even went in for a closer look to inspect the flavor options. Several looked delicious.

Then I stopped and really thought about it for a moment. It’s a sit on my butt at a desk work day. Do I really need that minute of tasty reward in exchange for a few hours of nutrition-less junk weighing down my gut?

Nope…moving along. Stack up another small win!

Toast 6 Different Ways - It's All Good Vegan

I had a post earlier, but I deleted it. I couldn't really tell if it got posted, but I decided I didn'twant to risk someone finding that post.. It was a story of what I was buying after a rough week.

I think I was getting ready to make it really really easy to comfort eat. I had way too many pastries in my cart. At least 8 donuts. Raspberry danish (for mom, ha!) Vanilla Cake poppers [clearance, again, Ha! What an excuse] Made excuses for things.

But the reality is, if I do stuff like that, I am either going to regain all my weight or stay heavy.

Today was better, I think. Lots of soup. And low or no cal beverages. Healthy dinner. Healthy, low cal dessert.

Tomorrow is a new day. Let that be better also~

Introducing my new weight loss program, it’s called “drink stagnant water and involuntarily void your guts on an hourly basis for the next week until you lose 20 lbs from dehydration”

Small choices can change your life in a big way 🐻🤍🍃 !.

Healthier you = Healthier year

Often we set resolutions around physical health. For sure that is a top priority. The focus of this blog is your mental and emotional health. This focus relates to leaders, business owners, entrepreneurs, and employees (basically everyone). Mental health is not obvious. It is often the quiet measure of how well a person is doing, adjusting, excelling, and managing life. 

Recently I ran into a business client and noticed they had lost weight. So I said something (ahem: I opened my mouth and firmly inserted my Cole Haan shoe!). It turns out that they lost weight because of a health problem. 

Oops! They didn’t intend to lose weight that way, and I certainly didn’t intend to hurt them with an insensitive comment. 

Take that a step further. When someone is struggling with their mental health (depression, anxiety, loss of a loved one, insecurity in an area of their, dealing with a toxic relationship, etc.), it is very hard for even a close friend to detect. 

For all of us, keeping a pulse on our mental and emotional wellbeing will actually assist in our physical health too. They are interrelated and definitely influence each other. 

A business friend of mine was working out diligently, getting all buff. His job was starting to get very busy and requiring more travel. As a result, he started to get overwhelmed between the ears. 

He quit working out. Started enjoying a beer or two or seven, then cocktails as he was trying to get through the work-life stress. He decided to go “clean” on food and beverages. This helped him get his mojo back and both his mental and physical health mutually improved. 

As we lead and work, serve and sell, keep focusing on what clears out our mind of unnecessary triggers. Make sure you are setting boundaries and going after life unhindered. 

A healthier you translates into a healthier work and personal life. This year can be your healthiest year yet if you remain committed to your health—aspect of it. You can look forward to physically, emotional, mental, spiritual, and even financial health. 

A toast to a healthier you in this new year!

The last month has been a wild ride. I was sick for a solid week and half, but, before and after, I've been moving more, eating better, and (trying) to improve my sleep. Healthier choices lead to better results overall. Tonight I meal prep for the week and hope for the best 👌

The Cold, Hard Truth About Ice Cream: Unveiling Its Impact on Your Nutritional Well-being

Ice cream, a beloved treat that conjures images of sunny days and carefree moments, holds a special place in many hearts. Its creamy texture, delightful flavors, and ability to evoke feelings of nostalgia make it a go-to dessert for people of all ages. However, beneath its alluring facade lies a potential threat to your nutritional health. While occasional indulgence in ice cream is unlikely to…

Climbing back aboard the better eating bus. A week in and I already feel more energized and alert throughout the day.

So easy to slip into unhealthy eating patterns of junk/processed foods and eating out. They provide us short term comfort. Those effects are short lived and soon you find yourself wanting more and getting caught in the cycle of eating foods that do not provide the proper healthy nutrients to power your body and mind all day long. It’s a tough cycle to break and easy to slip back into.

Try breaking out of it for a couple weeks. At first you’ll feel like garbage as your body craves the short burst energy it’s become accustomed to. But then you’ll start to notice how much better you feel without all that junk weighing you down.
