I know, I know, time for the tough love! But as usual ladies, I'm over here raising my hand with you that I, of all people, am SO tempted to see the negative, get lost in the overwhelm, and start pointing fingers to all the reasons why I can't do something.

As much as we can talk about tracking macros or eating intuitively- sometimes it can still feel too vague and not easy to apply to our own lives. In this episode, I'm walking you through some examples in the past week of my own life and basically doing a "think-aloud" of how I navigated making choices on the fly... choosing to SKIP orange juice in order to enjoy a cinnamon roll, and...

They say the definition of insanity is doing the same things repeatedly and expecting different results... YET, I often find myself in the same "pickle" week after week. Why is it ALWAYS Thursday that I don't get my planned dinner on the table and have to do a "cereal dinner" instead? Why is it that I get all my workouts in earlier in the week but each Friday am scrambling...

Does this sound familiar? Mon-Thurs...
