Weekend Check In: Pick ONE anchor

Happy FriYAY, my loves. If weekends feel like a full-body glitch (snacky, puffy, tired-but-wired, and somehow still doing laundry), here’s what I want you to try:

Not a reset. Not a restart. Just ONE anchor so your hormones don’t feel like they’re free-falling until Monday.

✅ Choose your anchor for the next 48 hours:

1) The Anchor Meal (my fave):Plan ONE nourishing “default” meal you can repeat.Think: cozy soup + a protein boost (chicken, turkey, lentils, shrimp) + something crunchy on the side.Not variety. Stability.

2) The Protein-First Morning: 30g protein before 10am (even if your day goes sideways after).This one move can soften cravings + mood swings by 3pm.

3) The Post-Meal Walk:10 minutes after lunch or dinner. No big workout energy required.Just a nervous system downshift.

4) The Sleep Buffer: Tonight: screens off 30 minutes earlier + a little “lights low” moment. Don't think of it as being dramatic… your brain needs the cue.

👇 Share your anchor: MEAL / AM / WALK / SLEEP…and if you want, tell us what you’re making this weekend so we can steal ideas like mature women do.

(And yes, you can still have the wine/chocolate/whatever. You enjoy your Valentine's Day. The anchor is what keeps it from turning into a spiral.)
