 Do You ever eat when things bother you?
What power have you given to the food that does not serve you? What ways do you use food? As a stress reliever? To combat boredom? To escape? To numb? Now it's time to diminish the power of food. Look at the emotion you are trying to fulfill or escape from with food. Are you still struggling with something that happened to you as a child or in a previous relationship? What are ACTIONS you can do in your life to DIRECTLY address the emotion you really need to feel or heal? Healing means looking at it for what it is and just say hey, I'm going to "crush it" and move on. It's time to build confidence that you can overcome these emotions and that the behaviors of the past can be in the past! Today you can begin your new future! Today you can crush sugar cravings and junk food addiction. Crushing the Crave - One Step at a Time

 Stop Sugar Cravings With The Benefits of Lemons So. If I could tell you ONE thing that you could do every single morning right as you wake up to help your body eliminate some harmful toxins, stimulate your metabolism, improve digestion, and BOOST your energy level, would you do it? Of course you would... and it takes less than 1 minute! Here's the trick... Immediately upon waking each day, squeeze about 1/2 to 1 full lemon (depending on size of the lemon) into an 8 oz glass of warm or room temperature purified water. This is gentler on your body first thing in the morning compared to ice cold water. I've found that slicing the lemon into quarters before squeezing by hand is easier than squeezing halves. Drink this at least 10 minutes before eating any food for the day. Make sure to use fresh organic lemons to make this drink, and not bottled lemon juice. You want to use organic lemons to avoid the pesticides that can accumulate. The health promoting benefits of lemons are so very powerful. For centuries, it has been known that lemons contain powerful antibacterial, antiviral and immune boosting components. We know that lemons are a great digestive aid and liver cleanser. Lemons contain citric acid, magnesium, bioflavonoids, vitamin C, pectin, calcium and limonene, which supercharge our immunity so that the body can fight infection. We are all being bombarded with toxins from all angles in today’s world. Everywhere from the water you drink, the polluted air we breathe, the shampoos and other cosmetics we use on our body with chemicals, and of course, all of the chemical additives, pesticides, hormones, antibiotics and other harmful compounds in the food that we eat. All of these TOXINS can have harmful effects on your body, harming your metabolism and hormones, impairing your digestive system, and zapping your energy levels. Lemons are considered one of the most alkalizing foods you can eat. This may seem untrue as they are acidic on their own, being citric acid. However, in the body, lemons are alkaline; the citric acid does not create acidity once it has been metabolized. The minerals in lemons are actually what helps to alkalize the blood. Most people are too acidic (from eating too much sugar and grains), and drinking warm lemon water helps reduce overall acidity, drawing uric acid from the joints. This reduces the pain and inflammation which many people feel. In addition, the American Cancer Society recommends drinking warm lemon water to encourage regular bowel movements." 3 TOP benefits of lemon drink in the morning are: 1. Helps you to lose fat: Since lemon juice helps to improve your digestive system, aids in removal of toxins, and increases your energy levels, this all combines together to help you to lose body fat as well through improving your hormonal balance. 2. Improves your digestion: Lemon juice helps your body improve digestion and stimulates bile production. Lemon juice can even be an aid for heartburn and indigestion. 3. Boosts your energy for the day: Even just the scent of lemon juice has been shown to improve your mood and energy levels, and reduce anxiety. Plus the detoxifying effect and alkalizing effect of fresh organic lemon juice can improve your energy through the removal of toxins from your body. More benefits include:
