Here we are again- emerging from the long(and incredibly snowy) winter. My whole body feels the relief of the extra hours of light, the green shoots emerging from partially frozen earth, the chance to be outside for more than a short time. I see people around me responding with similar relief and renewed optimism.
My 90-Day program participants are about halfway through our class and are beginning a version of a Spring Detox. from addictive eating. And they are feeling really ambivalent, understandably. Like most compulsive eaters and sugar-addicts, they believe they will suffer without their “comfort foods” and familiar ways of using food to self-soothe. They also realize that it is those foods and ways of eating that are keeping them overweight, fatigued, depressed, and hating themselves. It’s a dilemma-
However not for me- I have almost completed 90 Days myself from my brief relapse into addictive and compulsive eating late Fall into early January, and the changes are worth noting.
I have lost more weight
I am rarely hungry
My attention span is remarkable
I have been more productive and creative than ever
My sleep is deep and restful
I literally never crave anything
My teen sons brag to people about how much salad and vegetables I eat
My husband is really happy with my improved mood (and body)
My skin is clear and bright
People keep telling me how well I look
My fitness level improves each week- I am faster, stronger, more limber (at almost 51!)
My hair and nails appear stronger and healthier
My food and meals taste more delicious to me each day(it’s really true!)
My clients are getting more of me, more powerful coaching and focus
I can be fully present most of the time as I am never distracted by food thoughts or cravings or guilt about eating
I wake up clear and grounded- no shame, no regrets, no food hangovers! What a gift!
It’s all good- I promise and swear to you on my children’s sweet heads that food/sugar/whatever will never offer you these kinds of rewards, benefits, nada, nothing-
Hey, if you don’t believe me, come work with me. You can feel this way too, truly.

Love and blessings to you on this sunny spring morning-
off to walk my country hills
