As I write this I’m feeling mixed emotions. Part of me is relieved that I’m about to cross off a BIG chunk on my to-do list.
But the other part if a little bit sad our 28-day journey is over.
Or is it?
As I’ve shared many times, eating Low Carb to meet your health goals is a long term solution. The thing is, it only works if you keep doing what you’re doing!
You’ve taken some big first steps on this journey. And I’m so proud of you for sticking with me this far.
So what’s next?
Over the next few weeks I have some extra ‘graduation’ bonuses for you including
- Mindless Eating and how to avoid it.
- The Power of Fasting
- The truth about exercise.
- Plus MORE!
The Future
As someone with two small boys who has dreams of becoming a grandmother one day, I am on a mission to live a long and healthy life. I’m playing the long game here.
I’m so thankful I’ve developed a lifestyle where I genuinely love my Low Carb meals. Where I never feel deprived because I know I can choose to eat whatever I want. And that most of the time I want delicious, fresh real food.
I want you to find your happy place too. You’re on the right path.
ACTIVITY
Remember the celebration you decided on in yesterdays activity. Well now it’s time to put that plan into action. Enjoy your chosen activity. You deserve it!
I’m planning to celebrate by sitting in the garden with a coffee and one of my favourite cookbooks. Can’t wait.
See you next week!
Cheers,

IMPORTANT NOTE: The Low Carb Love 28-Day Program is where I share my personal journey of managing my blood sugar eating (mostly) Low Carb. I am not a doctor and this information is not intended as specific advice. Please discuss with your doctor or dietician before changing your food intake. Especially if you’re on medication or have any special medical concerns.
Jules, you have provided a lot of good information in this course and have done an excellent job of making me think about my attitudes and what makes me tick. In reading this last lesson I’ve come back to the realization that when I’m at home cooking (or instructing my husband about how to feed me), I don’t have a problem with going low carb. My biggest problem occurs when I’m eating a table with a bunch of other people who don’t have to watch what they eat, and I end up being tempted and/or feeling deprived if I’ve made healthier choices. That has been ingrained it me for 7+ decades, and is still hard to let go of even though my life is very different now. Fortunately I have more skills now, plus classes like this to give me ideas for how to handle situations.
I’m really glad to hear this Susan!
In terms of eating out with friends and the whole temptation / deprivation thing, there’s power in tying your eating preferences to your personal identity. Think about our vegan friends who wouldnt ever feel deprived if their brunch companions were eating bacon.
Also the whole ‘I don’t’ vs’ ‘I can / can’t’ is another subtle shift in thought that make a big difference in results 🙂
