• Today, we’re shifting away from the complexities of diet culture—no more calorie counting, no-carb diets, or trying to out-exercise a poor diet.
• Focus on real food:
  • What it is: Unprocessed, whole foods that nourish your body.
  • Barriers to real food: Overcome the mindset that it feels like restriction. This requires a heart shift and exposing the lies we've believed about food.
  • Practical Steps: Eliminate processed foods, try new recipes, and create simple meal plans.
• Commitment to Real Food: This is what we're focusing on in Fit Moms Accelerator's 30-day push—eating real food and walking 75 miles to see the scale drop without counting or obsessing over details.

Avoiding the Pitfalls:

• Avoid getting bogged down in macros, carb cycling, or fasting until you've established a foundation of real food. Even if these approaches worked for a season, they can still feel like bondage if not approached with the right mindset.

Action Steps:

• What Three Real Food Swaps Will You Commit To?
  • Reflect on your current eating habits and decide on three realistic swaps you can implement to move towards a healthier, real-food-based diet.
