🤯 Working From Home Was Wrecking My Body (Until I Did This)

Let’s get brutally honest here…

Working from home sounds like a dream—until your pants no longer fit, your energy disappears faster than your toddler’s snack stash, and your idea of cardio becomes walking from your desk to the fridge.

As someone running an online business from the comfort of stretchy pants and a chair, I didn’t realize how quickly I was trading in my health for hustle… until the scale gave me a reality check.

If I hadn’t found a simple system to fix my gut, fuel my brain, and stop my all-day snack parade, I’d be the size of a small cottage by now.
And listen, I love a good cottagecore vibe—but not on my hips.

So let’s talk about it.

🪑 The Sedentary Job Struggle Is Real

When you work a desk job (especially from home), you move way less than you think. You’re no longer walking across the office, hustling through a parking lot, or commuting anywhere that requires a bra.

Here’s what I noticed:

• My mood tanked midday.

• I started feeling foggy—like my brain was moving in slow motion.

• My back? Constantly yelling at me.

• And the weight gain… oof.

Sound familiar? You're not lazy. You're human. Your environment isn’t helping.

💪 Move It or Lose It: Workday Fitness Hacks

If you work from home and want to keep your body (and mind) from revolting, here’s what’s actually working for me and many others:

1. Standing Desks + Desk Treadmills

Standing while working is a game changer.
👉 Bonus: Get a walking pad (aka mini treadmill) and stroll your way through emails. It’s low impact, energizing, and your Apple Watch will finally stop judging you.

2. Mini Under-Desk Bikes

Yes, you can pedal through Zoom calls. And no one has to know.

3. Timers for Movement

Set a 45-minute timer. When it goes off, move your body for 5–10 minutes.
Dance break? Stretching? Squats next to your kitchen island? It all counts.

4. Resistance Bands

Keep a few bands near your workspace. You’ll be amazed what 3 minutes of arm pulls between tasks can do.

🥗 The Food Factor: Why Your Gut Might Be Mad

Now, let’s talk about food.

When I first started working from home, I treated the kitchen like my coworking space. Open office = open fridge, right?

I thought I was eating okay…
But I was:

• Grazing all day

• Eating out of stress, not hunger

• Craving sugar and carbs like it was my job

• And totally ignoring my gut health

Here’s the thing: your gut is your second brain. If it’s inflamed or out of balance, everything from mood to metabolism suffers.

🧪 Enter: The Feel Great System

I didn’t want another diet. I wanted freedom—mentally and physically.

That’s when I found the Feel Great System, and here’s how it works:

🫖 Yerba Mate Extracted Tea – A natural appetite support that gives you a clean energy boost without the crash. You just take a break from food for a few hours in the morning, and it keeps you from feeling hungry or deprived.

🌾 Balance Fiber (with patent-backed science) – You take this before your biggest meal. It supports GLP-1, your body’s natural appetite hormone. The same hormone that expensive weight loss injections target… but you get to stimulate it naturally and safely.

It also:

• Repairs the gut lining

• Slows carb absorption (goodbye blood sugar rollercoaster!)

• Helps your body shift from fat storing to fat burning mode

Honestly? It’s magic—without the potion or the wand.

🤯 My Work-From-Home Reality Check

When I first started working from home, I was like:

“I’ll have so much time to work out and meal prep!”
Reality: I became a snack-fueled chair goblin.

But with this system, I simplified everything:

• No strict diet

• No macro tracking

• No bootcamp burpees

Just a break from food with tea, some fiber before meals, and I was feeling lighter, clearer, and more like… me.
