What could change in 30 days if you stopped eating 2 to 3 hours before bed? 🌙✨

😴 Better sleep quality — because your body is resting, not digesting.
⚖️ Steadier blood sugar — which means less of that wired-and-tired feeling.
☀️ More energy in the morning — not because you drank more coffee, but because your overnight repair actually worked.

💭 And something harder to measure but just as real: the feeling of having kept a promise to yourself, 30 nights in a row.

That is what 💡 LIGHTS OUT is about.

Myth: Not eating before bed is just another diet rule.
Truth: It is biology.

When you eat in sync with your circadian rhythm — more during daylight, nothing during the wind-down hours — your body can do what it is designed to do.

Repair overnight instead of digest.
Regulate blood sugar more effectively.
Produce the hormones that make you feel rested.

One habit. One month. Group support. Prizes for those who hit their goal.

LIGHTS OUT starts May 1.

Fact or Fiction? Exercise is a stressor, it raises cortisol.

100% HELL YES. Exercise is a stressor and will raise cortisol . This came up in session yesterday and I have heard it on podcasts, particularly geared toward females in a fear-like manner. Let me explain this myth as both a dietitian and a licensed counselor.
--------------------------
Yes exercise is a stressor for the body. But the word 'stress' is typically associated with something negative for us.

But stress can be positive OR negative. Positive or "eustress" is good for us physically, cognitively and emotionally. It is how we grow and transform, become stronger and wiser.

Exercise is 'eustress' or a good stressor for the body (as long as it is not overused). It is a way to communicate to your body to 'do better.' It helps the body adapt and improve our health. Cortisol and other 'stress hormones/neurotransmitters' increase.

I would, however, not recommend very intense activity at night spiking cortisol before bed.

Seek out good stress in your life. Seek out activities that are going to push you a bit and encourage transformation and growth.

Clock is ticking down to Lights Out In May.

I know you have thought about it a million times, how to stop snacking before bed or eating late. This May is the time to actually kick the habit, or at least make headway on it

Health is not only about what you eat, how much you eat but WHEN you eat.

Shalyn Lommen was with me last weekend at a conference, which was her first introduction to circadian rhythm. Here is what she has to say about the power of this one simple act.

04/26/2026

After 22 years of working with people on their health, here is what I know:

The people who make lasting change rarely start by doing everything. They start by keeping one promise. Consistently. Until it becomes part of who they are.

That is the whole idea behind LIGHTS OUT.

One promise: stop eating 2 to 3 hours before bed. For all of May. With a group doing it alongside you.

Watch what that does to your self-trust — not just your health.

Are you stuck in an Eeyore state?

Let me explain…
There’s something called negative sentiment override—a concept from John Gottman’s work on relationships. It’s when even neutral or positive moments get filtered through a “dark cloud” and interpreted as negative.

And it doesn’t just impact relationships… it can quietly sabotage your health, too.

When you’re in this state:
• Small wins don’t count
• Effort never feels “good enough”
• Progress gets dismissed
• You only see what’s missing and where you fall short

It sounds like:
“If things are going downhill… they will”
“My efforts aren’t enough” (even when they are)
“I missed 2 days, so I’ve failed” — instead of noticing the 3 days you showed up

That’s the trap.
But here’s the good news:
This isn’t permanent. It’s a state—and states can shift.

One simple way to start?
The 5:1 positivity ratio. For every 5 thoughts, emotions, or self-comments… gently redirect 1 in a more supportive direction.
That’s it. Just 20%.

Respond to yourself with:
• Appreciation
• Humor
• Compassion

Not perfection. Not forced positivity. Just… less self-criticism.
This is why in my sessions, we spend time focusing on what is working—even the smallest efforts. Because when you shift what you notice, you shift your entire experience of change.

So I’ll leave you with this:

Where are you discounting your effort right now?
And… what would it look like to give yourself just 20% more credit?

If you are ready to go beyond menus, education, and all of the noise, we at The Pointe, Inc. are happy to help you transform on a deeper, more sustainable level. 779.379.2755

So... what do you do? What do dietitians do?

I had a nurse ask me that today.
If a nurse isn’t sure, there’s a good chance you might not be either.

We are trained medical professionals. We assess your symptoms, medical diagnoses, labs, and medications—through a nutrition and lifestyle lens—and integrate all of it with your goals to create a plan.

But most importantly, we help you execute.
You can have an amazing plan, but if you can’t follow it, it’s useless.

The very best part of my job? People let me into their lives—the real, day-to-day moments, both good and hard—so we can figure out what actually works and what helps them feel better.

For those with complex medical histories, it’s like peeling back the layers of an onion. But when we get to the core, the relief people experience is incredible.

So that’s what a dietitian does.
We create simple or complex plans—depending on what you need—and help you follow through.

And the best part? It’s covered by insurance.
