Episode 17: How to Navigate Thanksgiving Without Guilt (PLUS our Live Taste Tests 👀🤭)

Thanksgiving is supposed to feel cozy, nostalgic, and fun — but when you’re on a health journey, it can also bring up anxiety about food, “falling off,” or starting over on Monday. In this episode, Kaylin and Ellie break down exactly how to enjoy the holiday without guilt, restriction, or the all-or-nothing spiral. We cover: • How to build a balanced Thanksgiving plate without overthinking • What to eat before the big meal so you don’t binge • How to handle two family dinners (and not let guilt or pressure dictate your choices) • The truth about leftover meals vs. leftover Thanksgiving plates • Why movement matters more than perfection • How to come back to your routine without punishing yourself • And of course…the milk taste test you’ve all been waiting for 👀 (goat milk for Ellie, breast milk for Kaylin) This episode will help you walk into the holiday feeling confident, present, and in control — not overwhelmed or “off track.” Because you deserve to enjoy the day and honor your goals, all at the same time. 💛 📲 Connect with us on Instagram & TikTok: IG: @kaylinjohnsonfit | @ellie_katrina_decker TikTok: @kaylinjohnsonfit | @ellie_k_decker ✨ Apply for Kaylin’s 1:1 Health Mentorship: https://www.healthyempoweredrenewed.com/podcastcoachingform
