We share this week's favorite recipe, podcast, blog article, the Deal of the Week & more! Cheers, Friend!   "Cheers" seems like a fitting greeting considering that today (the first Friday in August) is International Beer Day. (Not ironically—albeit somewhat surprising that there's a "day" for it—tomorrow is International Hangover Day.)   Wacky days aside, this Sunday is both Friendship Day and Forgiveness Day. Considering the tremendous importance of social connectedness, the detrimental effects of social isolation and the monumental toll that holding onto pain and anger can take, I urge you to count your blessings, tell your friends how much you appreciate them, and perhaps most difficult, let go.   Now, before we dive into this week's VIP news, here's a couple quick-hitters to get you going…   Coach's Corner: "The secret of getting ahead is getting started." - Mark Twain    Coach's Tip: Chew each bite of food 40 times. Why 40? Research shows that chewing 40 times—not 10, not 25, but 40—suppresses appetite and increases feelings of fullness. As an added bonus, chewing your food 40 times increases levels of the hormone GLP-1, which stimulates first-phase insulin response. While that may sound like Greek, what that means to you is better glucose regulation, and more stable blood sugar means better energy levels, better appetite management, and better overall health. 1. Favorite Recipe We Tried This Week Mac and cheese…it's one of the ultimate comfort foods, and if you're anything like my 3-year-old daughter, it's one of the first things you learned how to "cook." While mac and cheese is one of those dishes that's much more than food—it's memories, stories and traditions—unless you're a culinary genius, it's not exactly healthy, and it's definitely not low-carb. Unless, of course, you're Coach Cristina, who seemingly defied the odds and whipped up this amazing keto-friendly cauliflower mac and cheese that's low-carb, good for you and sooo tasty! 2. Best of Our Weekly Podcast ""Habits are the invisible architecture of everyday life, and a significant element of happiness.

Let me say it's as I would expect with this company; yet again, it's phenomenal. I have mixed it in water, mixed it in shakes and now it has become a partner with my Keto Elevate! I mix the two into coconut milk along with a splash of heavy whipping cream and chia seeds. I absolutely love MetaboGreens as a part of my healthy living!!! Do yourself a favor and try it and please blame me once you're obsessed too!!!" 4. Most Popular Blog Article This Week I say po-TAY-to, you say po-TAH-to, but when it comes to sweet potato vs. potato, which is better for you? No rush; I'll wait for you to come to your own conclusion. It's got to be the sweet potato, right? Thanks to the Paleo movement, the South Beach diet and folks who've crowned them a "superfood," sweet 'taters have skyrocketed in popularity (consumption increased 80% from 2000 to 2014). And of course, we all "know" that the ol' white spud—just like other "white" foods—has no place as part of a healthy diet, right? Or maybe not. I think you'll be surprised by the results of this food faceoff! (Just don't confuse real potatoes with potato chips.) 5. Transformation Challenge Update With just two weeks to go in our 12-Week Shape-Up Challenge, our amazing group of participants has crossed yet another milestone. Collectively, they've shed a phenomenal 865 pounds, which is the equivalent of some 700 basketballs. That's a lot of weight (and a lot of roundballs).   Even though the clock's ticking, Coach Cristina reminds all of us that the buzzer hasn't sounded yet; it's time to move with urgency, move with purpose, and most importantly, move. If you're looking for some motivation, accountability and support yourself, just head on over to our VIP Community today!  6. No Kid Hungry® As we roll into August, many families are thinking about back-to-school shopping. But for the 1 in 6 children in the United States living with hunger, going back to school means worrying about where the next meal is coming from. Making breakfast part of the regular school day, just like lunch, has a powerful effect on kids. Breakfast benefits kids by promoting higher test scores, calmer classrooms, fewer trips to the nurse and stronger attendance and graduation rates—not to mention maximizing our country's future. That's why No Kid Hungry works with educators, political leaders and local nonprofits across the country to change the way schools serve breakfast. Over the past year, No Kid Hungry has helped feed more than 10 million students from low-income families. We strongly believe in and support No Kid Hungry's mission to end childhood hunger in American, and that's why, for every order placed, we donate a nutritious meal to a hungry child. To date, we've donated over 3.3 million meals to hungry kids. Thank you so much for your support! 7.
