    How to Handle Holiday Sugar Cravings

    https://www.kellykountsmacros.com/clubhouse-monthly-membership Holiday Cravings Explained 🎄🍪 | Dopamine, Sugar Cravings & Why You Want ALL the Christmas Cookies In this episode, we’re breaking down exactly why holiday sugar cravings feel so intense — and why it’s not lack of willpower, weakness, or “being addicted to sugar.” It’s dopamine, habit loops, emotional cues, and biology. Once you understand what’s actually happening in your brain, everything changes. You’ll learn:  • What dopamine really is (and why it spikes BEFORE the first bite)  • Why you want “one cookie” and end up wanting a dozen  • How years of dieting create restrict–binge patterns  • Why cravings feel stronger during Christmas  • How emotional memories increase dopamine  • How to stop saying “I blew it” and breaking the cycle  • Science-backed craving strategies that actually work • How to enjoy holiday treats intentionally, without spiraling • How to rewire your brain so one cookie can truly be one cookie again Inside my KKM Clubhouse membership, we’re doing Sleigh Strong and working through mindset, cravings, habit shifts, and emotional eating together. If you want support, structure, and real transformation — join us.
