There are four habits that'll need to change in the first month of Code Red. We call it "Code Red housekeeping" and they might surprise you!

The first thing you're going to want to do when you get on Code Red is to clean out the four main areas. Cupboards, fridge, glove box, and your work desk.

Don't think I don't know what's in that glove box. I do. And I also know about the crap you're hiding in your work desk in the name of food. So that crap has got to get cleaned out. Your cupboards need to be cleaned out of anything that is processed and anything that has any kind of sugar.

If it's close to us, we will eat it.  I've had over 40,000 people go through my challenges. I know this is true. I'm telling you right now, you'll cave if it's in your house. No sugar in your house - that’s a no-compromise rule. 

If you have a spouse that does not want to make this change, you have to remember that you are 50-50 owner of this house and your spouse needs to come halfway.

You cannot be expected to say on track, especially in the first month, if you have got junk food surrounding you. This is especially true if you're a proximity eater - which most of us are.

As you go through this process, you lose some people from your life, and that’s ok. It’s not because you are a bad person or because they are a bad person - you are both just on different paths now. 

Stay tuned as we talk about cleaning out your cupboards, cleaning out your newsfeed, cleaning out your friends’ list, both in-person and online, and cleaning out your thoughts.
