Hi ,
The most important part of the Healthy Six journey is Progress, not Perfection. If you slide off the Healthy Living Beam, hop back on. That sounds simple, considering how much we complicate it: One cookie doesn't have to lead to a bag of chips, ordering in a pizza and waiting 'til Monday to start again.
If you have a bad night's sleep, line up your day with a deeper going to bed routine to course-correct. If you miss a workout, don't sweat it. Do five minutes.
Now, lets talk Sugar.
The benefits of taking a break from sugar are plentiful. :
- It leads to better weight loss and weight management
- It helps us stabilize our blood sugar levels.
- It improves our skin
- It helps with our mood.
- It reduces inflammation in our body - and not simply in the belly
- It helps our taste buds realign
The best way to get off sugar is:
- Never get hungry - eat a diet rich in fiber from veggies, protein and healthy fat. Repeat. Avoid sweet veggies and fruit (such as mango, sweet potatoes) for the first few days and eat lower glycemic to break free.
- If you are craving sugar, have some blueberries with walnuts, apple and almond butter, or flavoured water
- Use the Healthy Six Pause - if you are reaching for sugar, set a timer on your phone, pause for six minutes, and then walk away. If the timer goes and you still want it, set in for another six minutes and do some exercise.
