Up until 6 months ago, I was caught in a legalist diet that I'd followed for years and encouraged my clients to use. God kept calling me to lay down my pride and trust that I needed more food, less elimination and focus on food in general. The greatest struggle of my life.

For 18 months God called me to eat more food and lay down my heavy weights, I was under-fueled and sore, constantly. But I didn't listen, I found myself hungry, overworked, sore and never seeing true changes in my body.

Once I started to lean in and follow His lead, I found myself bloated and six pounds up. I was really frustrated in my prayer time one day and He kept asking, Do you trust Me? Do you trust Me? Yes Lord, of course I do. So, I kept going and since then I've lost over 20 pounds, reaching my 94-pound weight loss goal.

He always knows best. Why do we fight it?

MACROS are amazing because we don't have to eliminate food groups, we take 5 minutes to plan each day, plugging in the meals we know we'll have, dinner out, a cocktail or dessert, we plan it and work around the rest. It's a beautiful, freeing type of eating and one I'm working with my weight loss mentorship clients on right now.

You don't have to (and you shouldn't) worry about Thanksgiving, plan your food, work around the rest, drink your water and enjoy Your LIFE. This is empowered eating and the people you see reaching their weight loss goals are eating this way. It is freeing, it is sustainable, it is the KEY to your success!

After I gained 5 pounds in one day a few years ago, I decided I should probably have a plan that i can stick to for Thanksgiving that doesn't have me waking up feeling like a meatball. Of course, you'd have to eat 7,000 calories to actually gain two pounds, but our bodies will hold on to foods we're not used to eating if we're not careful.

Here are my 3 tips to stay on track with your healthy habits and still lose weight this Thanksgiving:

1. Focus on Gratitude and all you have to be thankful for.
Why Because eating to fuel instead of feel is a fantastic shift in perspective and helps you connect with your body in a healthy way. Start your day with Jesus in prayer, then get IN the word and ask Him to speak to you when you struggle. Many people are spending their first holiday without a loved one, people are hurting, let's focus on the GOOD and how God continues to bless us, even in our struggle.

2. SLEEP. 7-8 hours. People considerably underestimate sleep to help them lose weight. I've tested multiple times waking up after 6-7 hours of sleep, then going back to bed for an hour and EVERY TIME, I wake up 2-3 pounds lighter. Every time. and I tested it multiple times. Get to resting!

3. Plan and Prepare. IF you're hosting make sure you have a ton of options for veggies and healthy snacks. Eat a good healthy breakfast ( I love my superfoods) and don't go into the meal starting. Failing to plan is planning to fail and there's no room for shame this holiday season. The enemy isn't winning that battle for our mind and body anymore!

Enjoy a treat, enjoy two treats. Don't shame yourself and don't be gluttonous.
