Leftover Halloween Candy? Let’s Talk About It 🎃

If you’re feeling uneasy about leftover candy, you’re not alone. Here are a few gentle reminders:

1️⃣ All foods fit. Candy isn’t “bad” — it’s just food. Restriction often leads to more cravings later.

2️⃣ Give yourself permission. Allowing candy can help it lose its “power” over time. Enjoy it mindfully, not fearfully.

3️⃣ Check in with your body. Pause before eating — are you hungry, craving, bored, or emotional? All reasons are valid, but awareness builds trust with your body.

4️⃣ Store, for now or later. Freeze some for later, and keep your candy bowl away in a pantry or cabinet to help with mindless grazing.

Happy Halloween!

Yes, we eat candy too!
Jess’s favorite—Gummy candies! Especially TwinSnakes
Lauren’s favorite—Twix! Team both left & right Twix, because you know...balance
Lisa’s favorite—Dark Chocolate! Go-tos are Lindt & Dove

Balance means enjoying the treats you love without guilt — yes, even the Reese’s pumpkins. 👻💛
Remember: one night of candy won’t reset your progress or goals.

Tips:
✨ Pick the candy you actually enjoy — not the one you think you “should” eat.
✨ Slow down, take a breath, and notice the smell, texture, and taste.
✨ Check in after each piece — are you satisfied, or do you want more? Either is okay.

Mindful eating isn’t about control — it’s about connection, and kindness toward yourself. 💛
You can honor your body and enjoy the fun of Halloween. 👻

Why You Should Eat Breakfast Before Coffee ☕🍳

When you drink coffee on an empty stomach, caffeine can suppress your natural hunger cues and increase stress hormones like cortisol. This might make you feel like you’re not hungry — but your body still needs fuel. Skipping that morning meal can lead to energy dips, irritability, and overeating later in the day.

Having breakfast first helps you:
🥣 Support hunger and fullness signals
💪 Keep blood sugar and energy steady
🧠 Feel focused and balanced all morning

Try eating a balanced breakfast with protein, fiber, and healthy fats — then enjoy your coffee after. It’s a small shift that makes a big difference for your hormones, hunger, and overall wellbeing.

Why Balance is More Important Than Calories

In a world obsessed with calories, it’s easy to forget that food is so much more than just a number. Instead of getting caught up in calorie counting, let’s focus on creating a balance of nourishing food components that truly support our health and metabolism.

Why? Because our bodies need more than just calories to thrive. We need:

🥯Carbohydrates to support metabolism and energy
🍳 Protein to build and repair tissues
🥑 Healthy fats to support hormone function and brain health
🥦 Fiber to keep our digestion on track and promote fullness
🍓 Vitamins & minerals to keep our immune system strong and energy levels stable

Focusing on balance doesn’t just help you feel more satisfied—it’s also the best way to support a metabolism that works with your body, not against it. By nourishing our bodies with a wide range of nutrients, we promote long-term metabolic health instead of chasing short-term calorie deficits. Our bodies don’t need the same set amount of calories every day. It changes day to day based on hormones, movement, etc.

Your body isn’t a calculator. It’s a complex, beautiful system that thrives on whole, nutritious foods. So instead of obsessing over every calorie, let’s embrace the power of balance and trust our bodies to guide us.

If you’re struggling with guilt or shame after eating restaurant food, know this: you are not alone. It’s easy to get caught up in the idea that eating out should look a certain way, but food is so much more than that. It’s about nourishing your body, connecting with others, and savoring life’s little joys.

Healing isn’t a straight line, and each meal is just one small step. You don’t have to feel perfect, or follow rigid rules. You’re not being “good” or “bad”, nor is the food. Eating at a restaurant doesn’t define your worth or progress. You are worthy of food freedom—free from judgment, free from shame.
Be kind to yourself. You don’t have to apologize for nourishing your body.

Thought Challenge! 💭

Your body doesn’t have the same needs every day! It’s so important to listen to your body’s signals to support metabolism. Honor your hunger!

Reminder that nothing erases the progress you’ve made! Keep going! ✨

A healthy relationship with exercise feels empowering — it’s about joy, strength, fueling adequately, and taking care of your body. 💪 You rest when you need to. You move because you want to, not because you have to.

An unhealthy relationship looks like guilt, punishment, or obsession. It’s forcing workouts through pain, skipping rest, or feeling “less than” if you miss a day.

Still Hungry After Dinner? Here’s a few potential reasons for this occurance.

Here are a few reasons why that might happen—and what to do about it:

Your Meal Wasn’t Balanced: Meals low in carbs, protein, fiber, or healthy fats may leave you feeling unsatisfied, even if you’re full by volume.

You Ate Too Quickly: It takes about 20 minutes for your brain to catch up with your stomach. If you finished your meal in a rush, you might feel hungry even when you’re actually full.

You Didn’t Eat Enough Earlier: Skipping meals or eating too little during the day can lead to increased hunger in the evening.

Habit or Emotional Hunger: Ask yourself—are you eating because you’re bored, stressed, or just used to snacking at night?

💡 Try This:
Check in with yourself:
👉 Is this physical hunger or something else?
If it’s real hunger, it’s absolutely okay to have a balanced evening snack—think yogurt and fruit, a slice of toast with nut butter, or veggies with hummus.

You’re not doing anything wrong by listening to your body.
