Hi ,
Who remembers the fat-free movement of the 90s?
It is amazing to look back on diet culture and this piece from NPR does it admirably. Americans were dying of heart disease at alarming rates, and fat was deemed enemy #1. This was based on little or no scientific evidence. But what happened when all the fat-free products were launched? They were filled with chemicals and - you guessed it - sugar.
We have an obesity crisis worldwide but one thing is certain - we know, beyond a doubt, that healthy fat is very good for us. The best sources? Olive oil, nuts, nut butters and avocados.
I want to encourage you to start joining LIVE classes. There is so much wonderful energy in the live group (Saturday 10 am - Strength class). I highly encourage you to take a look at the weekend ahead with joy and anticipation. Embrace a walk, time with family, journal, do a workout (or two!) Send a letter to a friend. Tick the boxes on your health this weekend! I will send you Meal Prep ideas tomorrow or just go right to Week 2!
We will postpone the meditation workshop until we have more signed up. Apologies for those who were going to sign up last minute!
