Mindset & Mood
This week, let’s focus on making a fresh start toward a better beginning.
Even though summer is here, don’t lose sight of your goal to live a healthy life.Let’s start by acknowledging one simple truth: most people overeat. Just admit it—no shame, just honesty.Now, with that truth in mind, we begin a new journey. A journey toward balance, better habits, and a healthier you.
Goals
For some people, setting a goal that is too far out of reach may not be practical—either due to their time constraints or their readiness to make long-term structural changes.The best approach is to start with small, achievable goals and actually complete them.If you want to make a difference starting now, begin by cutting out all sources of added sugar—like soda, sweetened snacks, and even some fruits. And most importantly: portion size matters.
Food Choices

Start with the basics: pasture-raised eggs, grass-fed beef, skin-on chicken thighs and wings, pork (like bacon, chops, and ground), turkey, lamb, and wild-caught seafood such as salmon, tuna, sardines, shrimp, and cod. This is just the beginning of the many healthy, keto-friendly foods you can enjoy.
Keto Creamy Garlic Butter Chicken
Ingredients:
2 chicken thighs (skin-on, bone-in or boneless), 2 tablespoons butter, 2 cloves garlic (minced), 1/4 cup heavy cream, 1/4 cup grated Parmesan cheese, salt and pepper to taste, optional: fresh spinach or chopped parsley for garnish.
Weekly Recipe
Instructions:
Season & Sear Chicken: Season chicken thighs with salt and pepper. In a skillet over medium-high heat, melt 1 tablespoon of butter and sear chicken for 5–6 minutes per side until golden brown and cooked through. Remove and set aside.
Make the Sauce: In the same pan, add the remaining tablespoon of butter and garlic. Sauté for 1 minute until fragrant. Lower heat and stir in heavy cream and Parmesan. Let it simmer for 2–3 minutes until it thickens.
Bring It Together: Return chicken to the pan, spoon sauce over the top, and let it simmer for another 2–3 minutes. Optional: toss in a handful of spinach to wilt into the sauce.
Serve: Plate the chicken with sauce, garnish with parsley if desired. Great with cauliflower rice or zucchini noodles
