Happy Tuesday!!

A little nutrition reminder for you all this morning. Bites, nibbles and tastes can have you going over your calorie limit without you even knowing.

How often do you take a bite of the food you are prepping or serving yourself or your family? How often do you find yourself taking a bite of what your kids have left on their plate while you are cleaning up after your meals?

I encourage you the next time you are in the kitchen getting a meal or snack together whether it's for yourself or someone else, take note each time you feel like taking a bite. It's so easy to do and not even realize you are doing it.

Just like everything else on your health journey, the more you practice a habit and are consistent, the more it will stick. So, the more you practice being mindful about bites, nibbles and tastes while you are food prepping for the week, preparing your meals or cleaning up after dinner, the easier it will become.

Happy Wednesday!

I’m going to keep saying this because I want it to really stick…

Remember that there is a difference between what you’re trying to accomplish during these four weeks of the DietBet vs. what you’re trying to accomplish long term. In trying to lose a specific amount of weight in a specific time, you have to understand that there will be things you HAVE to give up during this time. You KNOW what you should be avoiding…it simply comes down to what’s more important to you. Your brain controls your cravings and you ARE strong enough to say NO! Remind yourself daily, every hour if needed (set an alarm on your phone) WHY you’re doing this.

In taking these next three weeks to work towards or accomplish a specific goal, you’re learning and setting yourself up for sustainable habits after the DietBet is over. We’re not doing this so you can simply go back to what you were doing before…we’re working on changing your behavior and mentality. YOU GOT THIS!!

👊?💙??

Happy Tuesday!

Are you feeling hungry in the evening and need a crunchy snack?

First!! Make sure you are truly hungry and you aren’t just wanting to snack because you're bored or because snacking has become a habit as soon as you get to relax for the evening.

Now, if you are TRULY HUNGRY and need a little snack, here are some suggestions…

- Rice cakes with toppings of your choice (cottage cheese, PB, Greek yogurt, hummus, etc)
- Greek yogurt with a handful of low/no sugar cereal (Chex, plain cheerios)
- Celery w/ Peanut butter
- Carrots/celery/cucumbers/peppers w/ hummus
- Apple w/ Peanut Butter

What is your favorite healthy snack?

Happy Monday!
