Are you doing "everything right" but still feeling like a zombie? 🧟♀️
It’s the ultimate frustration: You’re choosing "clean" foods and eating small, frequent meals just like you were told... yet you’re still shaky, exhausted, and stuck in a loop of cravings.
The Reality Check: Eating every 2 hours (especially if it’s carb-heavy) keeps your blood sugar on a rollercoaster.
You aren't failing; your strategy is. 📉
Break the cycle by mastering:
1️⃣ The Mix: Finding the protein + carb + fat balance that actually fuels your body.
2️⃣ The Timing: Learning how to eat so you’re satisfied, not just "tiding yourself over."
Stop the cycle. Start feeling like yourself again.
Discipline =
The internal mute button for that tiny voice in your head that says, "It’s raining outside, so technically a workout would be dangerous." 🤣
You've so got this! 💪
PS: Enjoy a salad and/or some veggies today 😎

Hello and I hope you had a wonderful holiday this past week and are anxiously looking forward to the New Year ahead!
On January 5th, 2025 we started a "Victory Jar."
Yesterday, December 28th was the final victory of '25 recorded 💪
Each Sunday I wrote a short note about what I felt was a personal or professional victory. On the January 1st, 2026 I plan to dump out my notes and read all 52 of them as I reflect on my year and think through the New Year ahead.
I'd like to suggest that you give this a whirl for your New Year ahead. Your jar can be for anything, not just what you consider a "victory." It's a great way to capture your year for future review and reflection.
As you look forward to the New Year ahead, please reflect on all that you accomplished in 2025 and what lies ahead for your future endeavors.
Let me know what your plans are and how we can accomplish them together 🙌
-Head Coach, Carolyn

My name is Carolyn Fetters. In addition to being the founder of Balanced Habits, I was also a multi-location fitness business owner, with my husband, Paul. Together we have been in the fitness industry for 30 years.
Why I Do What I Do
For over twenty-five years now, I’ve been a nutrition expert and counselor. It’s my passion. Having said that, it seemed only natural to apply my energy and enthusiasm for nutrition in a way that would help people throughout North America to better understand how to make better and more healthful nutrition choices to support their own goals. I have now worked directly, and indirectly, with over 140,000 people with the nutrition programs I created to educate people how to eat real food in the right portions to support their body and lifestyle. I coined this term a “Füducation.”
The origins of Balanced Habits
In 1994 my husband and I created a one-on-one nutrition program we called LIFE, to support our gym clientele. In 2008 I created the KICK START for a short-term, community-type event built around a nutrition program. Both programs continue to be extremely popular and successful.
So successful, that in November of 2012, we realized that we were limited to how many people we could impact with our own two hands so we started making our nutrition programs available to fitness businesses all around the USA and Canada, so they too could help their clients and community learn how to eat right and live more healthy lifestyles. We named our company Balanced Habits™ and re-branded our original programs to Balanced Habits™ LIFE and Balanced Habits™ KICK START, as we wanted to emphasize that we all have habits and the goal is to have more balanced habits.
We are so inspired to not only support communities all across the US and Canada, but Fitness Businesses as well, by developing a proven and profitable Department of Nutrition, rounding out their business brand and changing the way they operate by providing a “one-stop-shop” opportunity they previously were missing. We see this as a win-win and have now devoted 100% of our time to building Balanced Habits into a National Brand recognized everywhere.
This Fall 2018 will be the 26th installment of our Balanced Habits™ KICK START program and we are thrilled to have the opportunity have now touched over 140,000 lives! Balanced Habits™ LIFE is on its 25th year and we have thousands of folks on this program at this time.
