When you’re camping with 5 kids, mornings are a special kind of chaos. 😅 Someone’s freezing, someone’s hungry, someone’s lost a shoe, and someone’s already sneaking marshmallows before breakfast.

Thankfully, my husband’s the real MVP of camp mornings — he gets the oatmeal and freeze-dried meals going while I stay warm in my sleeping bag with the baby, trying to convince myself to crawl out into the cold. 🥶😂

That’s why intermittent fasting while camping is the easiest win for both of us. No extra meal to prep, no extra dishes, and honestly, my body feels amazing skipping breakfast out there. Instead, I sip on my yerbamate. 🧉 It’s not just a caffeine hit — it’s science you can feel. Yerbamate has been proven to:
🧠 Increase fasting GLP-1 levels — the hormone that keeps hunger in check and stabilizes blood sugar
🔥 Boost fat oxidation, meaning you burn stored fat for fuel instead of food

So while he’s stirring oatmeal, I’m sipping something warm and literally eating my love handles for breakfast. 🌲💪🥤

Less cooking, less cleanup, and way more calm before the adventure begins.

🍫 Remember the I Love Lucy chocolate factory scene? Total chaos when the belt sped up! That’s your body with insulin resistance—your pancreas working overtime until it can’t keep up.

📊 1 in 3 U.S. adults (~97M) are affected.
🔥 Belly fat
🍩 Sugar cravings
💤 Brain fog
🖤 Dark skin patches
💔 High blood pressure or triglycerides

Your blood sugar might look normal, but insulin could be screaming behind the scenes.

Most people think “sugar” only means sweet—but your body knows better. 🍌

Starch is just chains of sugar molecules, and whether it’s a banana, pasta, or chips, your body breaks them down the same way.

Learn to read labels smarter:
Net carbs = total carbs – fiber.
Fiber slows the spike. Starch fuels it.

Follow for more science that makes food make sense. 🧠✨

A few days before Halloween, we gathered with close friends—nineteen kids between four families, the oldest eleven—for a lively, laughter-filled dinner 🎃👨‍👩‍👧‍👦💛. Living an hour from family, these friendships have become our community and support system 🤝.

Strong social ties aren’t just comforting—they’re good for our health 🧠💪, lowering stress, boosting immunity, and even protecting against chronic disease.

This year’s Halloween spread included mummy meatloaf 🥓👀, black olive focaccia with spider designs 🕷️🍞, mummy hot dogs 🌭, raspberry pretzel salad 🍓🥗, and a skeleton veggie tray 🥕💀.

When we get together, it’s never quiet, but it always fills everyone’s cup 🫶✨.

Why can animals graze all day—but we can’t? 🦓🦒

Zebras and giraffes have to graze. Their stomachs and digestion are built for it.
Humans? Totally different story.

Our ancestors ate fewer, higher-fiber, higher-protein meals—and thrived.
But today, we’re told to snack nonstop.
Why? Because tired, hungry, dependent people buy more. 💸

Constant grazing = blood sugar spikes, crashes, cravings, and fat storage.
The fix? Intermittent fasting.
Not starving—just resting your system.

🕗 Try a 16:8 window
🍳 0.6–0.8g protein per lb of ideal body weight
🥦 25–35g fiber per day

You have to ask: were we made to graze… or trained to? 👀
