Never heard that mindful eating can help with weight loss? It's true, but let me clear up a common myth: Mindful eating is NOT a diet. 🙅‍♀️🍴 Wait, what? How can it help with weight loss then, you ask? 🧐💭 Well, it's all about tuning into your body's signals. 📡👂 Here's the kicker: When we eat mindfully, we become more in tune with our hunger and fullness cues. We start to recognize when we're truly hungry, and when we've had just enough to eat. 🍏🛑 This means we're less likely to overeat or snack mindlessly - not because we're forcing ourselves to eat less, but because we're listening to our bodies. And THAT can lead to weight loss over time. It's not about restriction, it's about attention and respect for our bodies. 🙌💖 But remember, mindful eating is a journey. It's not a quick fix, but a sustainable lifestyle change. 🌱🐢 And the best part? It's not just about weight loss. It's about enjoying your food, feeli...

Are all carbohydrates bad for you? And how much carbohydrate should you eat every day? This is where carbcycling can help. Carbohydrates, along with fat and protein, make up the three macronutrients. When your body digests carbohydrates, they’re broken down into glucose – your brain and body’s preferred form of fuel. When glucose gets into the bloodstream, the pancreas is triggered to produce a hormone called insulin. This transports glucose from the bloodstream into the cell. Here, it is turned into energy, stored in the fat cells, or stored as glycogen.  Carb cycling is useful for breaking through weight-loss plateaus. It relies on increasing and decreasing carbohydrate intake on different days of the week. There are high-carb days and low-carb days as well as days on which no carbs are eaten at all. When you try carb cycling, you can eat carbohydrates if they’re from a clean source. Cycling allows the body to use fat more effectively as a fuel instead of ...
