⚖ I’m a big fan of looking at foods on an “eat more” to “eat some” to “eat less” spectrum (instead of “approved”
and “off-limits”).

🧐 And I encourage everyone to try looking at foods through this lens, as well!

💡 Here is a handy, visual food guide* to give you a better idea of what I mean. They’re designed to help you
make healthier choices, no matter your knowledge of nutrition.

🔑 Remember: Aim for

😔 Some say exercise can help manage depression. Sure, it’s worth a try — in theory. But when you’re
depressed, it can be hard to muster the motivation. Heck, just getting out of bed is a victory some days.

💡But here’s one simple yet effective strategy you can try to get you moving: Take it step-by-step.

🎯 This illustration, inspired by the workbook, “Exercise for Mood and Anxiety Disorders”, is another great
example of an *easier* way to get yourself to exercise.

You understand the importance of getting some sort of movement every day, whether that’s a little hip shakey-shake while walking your dogs, some crunches while throwing your kid in the air, or a 10-minute HIIT while the coffee brews. 🦮

If you exercise regularly, you probably know that kickass workouts can leave you feeling like a million bucks 🥊🥊

Here are just a few reasons *why* getting full-body movement in every day has us feeling like this 🤗

What kind of movement makes you *literally* light up? Share in the comments ⤵️

Rather than ban the foods you love (and feel grumpy and deprived), embrace the subtle art of eating in moderation.

Think of it as the middle way between rigid restriction and “anything goes.”

Here’s how:

🍎Work towards consuming 70-90% of your calories from minimally-processed whole foods.

🍪Think of the remaining 10-30% as discretionary calories. It could be 🍕🍩🍷or anything else that feeds your soul.

Comment your favorite food (or drink) you just can’t live without?

🍟🍪🍦 Can’t resist the chips… the cookies… the ice cream? It’s normal to feel like you can’t stop overeating
certain types of foods.

🍭 Processed foods, in particular, are explicitly designed to be hyperpalatable and irresistible.

The good news? There are strategies to help you build awareness of your behavior and control treat
consumption. Here are a handful of suggestions you could try ⤴️

🙃 You might try one. You might try several. You might try them all.

From The Uptown Trainer family to yours—wishing you a safe, happy, and healthy Thanksgiving. 🧡
