• Change starts with your mindset

    It’s incredible the changes my husband has made over the past 6 months. He started out small, working out on his own, and then decided to jump into my weight lifting program and is now on his second round! He has so much more energy just to do daily activities and has so much more stamina. It wasn’t long ago just doing chores he would need to take frequent breaks and today we have been doing chores non stop since 8am.
    .
    This weekend he went to his first event with one of our super trainers and even worked out with us! if you would have told me he would be doing this a year ago I would have laughed in your face and said “yeah right! “. It wasn’t his thing.
    .
    But something clicked for him over the past few months. It wasn’t because I was doing anything. It was because he decided it for himself. No one is going to motivate, push, or hold your hand to do anything. You have to want to make the changes for yourself or it will never happen. And the biggest difference was following the tools that get results.

  • The trouble with no sugar products…

    Yall know I’ve been talking a lot about inflammation, gut health, and just on a mission to regain my health from long covid. I feel like many need to be educated on artificial sweeteners and foods that say no sugar added. It may look healthy because there is no or low sugar, but can do just as much damage, if not even more, because it has artificial sugars and the most common one 𝐒𝐮𝐜𝐫𝐚𝐥𝐨𝐬𝐞.
    .
    You can find it in many products, diet sodas, supplements, and things that say no sugar added…. if it says no sugar added, they had to have added something to make it sweet. Its why I love beachbody products so much because it doesnt have all that artificial junk in it.

    Here are just a few facts about sucralose…Did you know:
    – sucralose disrupts your gut health? It cuts the good bacteria by HALF (hello brain fog and getting sick more) and increases the bad bacteria… which then causes digestion issues, gas, bloating and so much more.
    – It also inhibits the absorption of medications. So if you are taking that blood pressure meds and still having those diet cokes, you are not helping your body at all.
    – It also triggers headaches and migraines and can create symptoms related to allergies even if you dont have allergies
    – causes inflammation in the kidneys and liver and damages the thymus gland. sucralose is chlorine and sugar. Your body excretes the sugar but cant process the chlorine so it accumulates in your kidneys.
    – it leads to weight gain and other health issues
    .
    When reading your labels, dont just read the amounts of things but what are the ingredients in that product. Stick with things like stevia leaf, organic cane sugar, beet sugar, honey, monk fruit (aka luo han gao), agave, honey, or maple syrup.
