@stephaniecrassweller: 🍹 These are the exact things I do to reduce the impact of alcohol on my energy, cravings, and fat loss progress: ✅ Eat protein before drinking Protein helps slow digestion and reduces the blood sugar roller coaster that happens when alcohol hits an empty stomach. ✅ Hydrate before, during, and after Alcohol is dehydrating and dehydration = inflammation + blocked fat burning Mild dehydration can increase fatigue, cravings, headaches, and make recovery harder the next day. My goal: 💧 1 glass of water between drinks 💧 Electrolytes before bed ✅ Give your liver the nutrients it needs the next day I support the detoxification pathways to lower inflammation 🍋 Lemon water 🥬 Cruciferous vegetables (broccoli, cauliflower, Brussels sprouts, arugula) 🍓 Berries 🥝 Kiwi 🥚 Eggs (for choline) 🥩 Protein at every meal These nutrients help support the pathways involved in processing and clearing alcohol. ✅ Protect your sleep Alcohol already disrupts sleep quality. And poor sleep = more insulin resistant by up to 25% the following day = more fat storage ✅ Go for a walk the next day Not to burn off the alcohol. To support blood sugar regulation, circulation, detoxification, and inflammation. The goal isn’t perfection. The goal is being able to enjoy the wedding, patio, girls’ trip, vacation, or summer BBQ without feeling like you’ve completely derailed your progress. 🎙️ Want to understand exactly what alcohol does to your metabolism, hormones, blood sugar, inflammation, and fat loss over 40 and more ways to avoid gaining weight?
