❌ The scale is not a reliable measure of how well you’re doing on your journey. Next time you decide to step on the scale, remember that no matter the number - you’re doing great! Keep making those small, sustainable changes because they will create BIG results.

Did someone say CINCO DE MAYO??

INGREDIENTS
2 oz tequila
1 oz FRESH lime juice
2 tsp powdered Swerve (I’d try liquid stevia or lime mitoplex)
2 oz orange-flavored seltzer

INSTRUCTIONS
Prep your glasses. Cut a wedge of lime and run it around the glass rim. Put coarse salt onto a plate and dip the rim into the salt and make sure it’s coated.
Fill a cocktail shaker with ice.
Add the tequila, fresh lime juice, and powdered Swerve. Shake well.
Add orange seltzer, and only give it 1 or 2 gentle shakes, so the seltzer doesn’t fizz up.
Fill your glasses up with ice and pour margarita over ice. Add a lime wedge and serve.

Is breakfast really the most important meal of the day? 🍓 I used to think so, but now I know…. NO! It’s not!
⁠
Your body is always in 1 of 2 states:⁠
⁠
#1 Fed state 🍔 when your body is digesting and absorbing food and either using it for immediate energy or storing it for energy later.⁠
⁠
#2 Fasted state 🍽 when you have digested and absorbed your last meal entirely and are now using stored fat for energy.⁠.. THIS IS THE GOAL!! 🎯
⁠
Intermittent fasting is an eating pattern where you cycle between periods of eating and fasting.⁠ We are all fasting when we sleep.
⁠
Personally, I extend my fast by drinking my NAT in the mornings. They naturally suppress my appetite while fueling my brain and body so I eat my first meal when hungry (typically lunch or later).
⁠
Not only is fasting beneficial for weight loss, but it also helps keep your blood sugar and energy stable and can increase mental clarity! 💥

There is a difference between artificial sweeteners and alternative sweeteners!!!👀

🚫Avoid "artificial sweeteners": Splenda, sweet n low, nutrisweet, & equal; these contain sucralose, aspertame, sacchrin, maltitol or Maltodextrin and affect blood sugar levels.

✅Use “alternative sweeteners": Monkfruit, Stevia, Erythritol [Swerve] & Allulose; these have minimal or zero glycemic index👍🏾.

This is awesome because it is a fair representation of what the scale looks like as you are consistently losing fat over time.

This is why I preach to STAY OFF THE SCALE!!! It is a number...and a number that will drive the wrong mental behavior, especially when you're doing all of the "right things" yet still focusing there.

Remember, this is a marathon, not a sprint. And if you’re doing the right things and if you must measure progress, focus on inches lost (try a soft measuring tape or a specific pair of pants) and how you feel!
