Have you ever wondered if fat plays a role in your weight loss journey? If so, what kind and how much? Or does that even matter:)

Learn to stay on your THM journey with these 6 keys:

Mindset: First, start with believing that you can, even if you have not proved it to yourself yet. Here’s the deal, if you believe that you can’t then you won’t. But, if you are willing to believe that you can eat the Trim Healthy Mama way, your brain will go to work trying to prove it.
