Now wait on stinking thinking minute, sis, wow! How did it get to be Day 10 already? I have so enjoyed seeing your posts with the wonderfully delicious meals that YOU prepared, wonderful tracking you’ve done to collect data about your body, and of course those NSVs make us SO SO SO HAPPY!!
YOU. DID. GOOD. SIS!!!!
Listen diva before you go, I wanted to share a bit more about what was intended for these first 10 days of your experience with Fit, Fyne & Fabulous. So pull up sis..
The 1st 10 Days… was intended to break you body’s addiction to sugar and sugar substitutes via a sugar detox. It was my intent to show you that the old adage is TRUE where your mind goes, YOUR. BODY. FOLLOWS. You turned away from added sugar and it turned away right with you (yeah you had some withdrawals, but look how quickly they went away!!!!)
The 1st 10 Days… My intent was to help walk you through organizing your thoughts and mind around making yourself a priority, putting Y-O-U first. The importance of setting aside time for YOU vs everyone else is KEY to building healthy habits.
The 1st 10 Days… My intent was for you to see that basic is GOOD too! Far to0 often, we see these pretty meal prep pics of food that takes an hour to prepare. My goal was for you to see that you can eat good, clean wholesome meals your family will enjoy in 20 minutes or less. Stop having food pic envy, LOL!
The 1st 10 Days… My intent was for you to face the body you have and love it as it is. Take a pic of it, measure it, weigh it and not feel a ways. I want you to know that you are empowered to change it if you don’t LIKE what you see. But we must love who we are, arthritic knees, back fat, belly rolls, tiger stripes and all; or honest to GOD sis, WHO WILL!! For REAL!

The 1st 10 Days… My intent was for you to see that we are better together! It’s not motivation or will power you lack, it’s support!! We are made to commune, to partner up. It’s no coincidence that GOD gave Adam his Eve, sis! We were designed to partner up and bare each other’s burdens. There’s a reason it feels better with a partner, and with a diva crew. It’s how we were DIVINELY created!!
The 1st 10 Days… My intent was for you to see that you don’t have to have it all together all at once! You can meal prep but still need to work on sleep. You can sleep great but still need to work on workouts. You don’t have to have a solid plan for it all to begin, but you have to START to win!(even if its just a little bit at a time). One habit at a time!
The 1st 10 Days… My intent was for you to see that without planning, we are left to whatever the world places before us. Whatever is left in the vending machine, whatever is left in cafeteria, whatever we see in the drive thru on the way home. Without proper planning, you are doomed to repeat bad patterns. Society makes it easier to eat junk, stay unhealthy, see the doctor, have a medical bill, pay the bill, go back, get prescription, pay the drug store, keep it going… NOW, you’re a part of the medical economy. Break out NOW! Chart your own healthy path sis – it’s cheaper! TRUST!
The 1st 10 Days… My intent was for you to see that failure is a part of the process. You will miss a meal, eat badly, miss a workout, drink ZERO ounces of water, it happens. Forgiveness, grace, and commitment goes a long way. Have your moment, and then move on. Sometimes we treat our failures (which was meant as a lesson on what needs improvement) as a FULL ON 25 YEARS TO life sentence. We end up believing we are that mistake; see COACH I told you… I can’t meal prep, I don’t drink that much water ever, I don’t… Girl stop! You can, and will be a new creature, in Christ, if that is YOUR desire. Fail Forward Boo! Fail Forward into the New You!
Fit, Fyne & Fabulous supports you sis!

I’m Nicole Twyman, a native New Orleanian, who has lived all across the US! Although, my small family of 4 currently calls Los Angeles, CA home. I am a proud 40+ year old mom of a wonderfully energetic and theatrical daughter, and a handsome, scholarly athlete!
While I have worked in corporate America as a certified senior project / program / portfolio manager for Fortune 500 companies like Microsoft, Procter & Gamble & IBM, my passion is service. It has always been my desire to live a life of service to others; which I took every opportunity to explore as an active member of many of my church’s ministries and of my public service sorority, Delta Sigma Theta, Inc.
Well, now I am over the top excited to have the opportunity to serve divas through my very own ministry, Fit, Fyne & Fabulous.
I did great with the eating part and improving on the exercise and water!🙌🏾🙌🏾🙌🏾 To God be the glory! Got a bike after 33 years without one. Have the support of this group but also my family which is awesome!! I am amazed at how much support love and results come when we follow the plan and the leader!
You are godsend Nicole! I am so motivated by your energy and dedication to help so many women live healthier lives.This was a good week! I was successful at intermittent fasting and was able to get back on track with working out. That is my non scale victory for the week.
This was a great jump start to me getting back to my healthy lifestyle journey. I know for a fact that if I don’t meal prep, I won’t eat at all or make some not so healthy choices. I love the fact that I was consistent in both areas of eating and working out. I usually do one or the other with eating healthy being the later. I loved learning about the different supplements and understanding what works for my body. This was a great start Nicole and I feel less bloated and moody. I’m making myself a priority again and able to say no, I will not eat that and I have to get this workout in for my own sanity as well as meditation and reading my word. Keep it up Nicole, don’t stop having certain intentions for us and the group. You have to be INTENTIONAL and consistent in order to be successful and that is what you do for this group. Continued blessings!
This week was definitely the reset I was looking for! I thrive with structure and you provided just that. I could have been more creative with my meals but the meals of yours I copied on Thursday and the detox water helped me tremendously on Thursday and Friday. I did not learn about supplements and the use of detox tea. I saw them being used but there was no education provided that I am aware of. Maybe that’s coming for those of us who signed up for 30 or 90 days?
Coach you did exactly what you said you would do and more!! I’ve joined a few other fitness groups but they don’t have the high energy vibe of you and this group!!! I love it!!! The Sleep Challenge had me sold. And I loved how you separated out the different health areas letting us know which one was more important. I hadn’t looked at it that way or had anyone explain it that way. I used to brag that I only needed 3 hours of sleep and could function. Smh….I look at sleep in an entirely new way working towards my 7 hours a night. This is also the first program of about 4 that I’ve tried over rhe last 2 years that actually took some pounds off in record time!! I could go on and on but will end this by saying keep doin whatchu doin and thank you for this wonderful, high energy, fitness focused group soror!!! Oh and I love what everyone else has said about you❤️
Nicole you definitely succeeded in what you set out to do. I needed to refocus and get back to the basics and this challenge helped me to do that. Each time I participate in a challenge I learn new information and I learn something new about myself. Planning my meals is a MUST (which is the fun part for me), having my food available and accessible has helped me to complete this challenge and will help me to maintain a healthy lifestyle. Loving myself is a priority and there is more than one way to do that; I love myself when I eat healthy, I feel better when I eat healthy, I’m a strong & powerful woman, I’m a woman seeking improvement by learning from my failures and picking myself up. Thanks Nicole you make being healthy easy.
Coach Twy, I thank you for Blessing me with all the tools and valuable information. On this healthy lifestyle journey I learned so much. There are many factors that affect my mindset, nutrition, sleep, sugar intake, water, food, and daily exercise. The challenges helped me to reach my SMART goals. The sisterhood and my accountability partner helped to keep me focused. Thank you for a jumpstart to better Health❤️
My Nola girl is bomb as we would say back home. I have watched FitFyne&Fabulous grow into an unstoppable supportive group for women of all different walks of life. The support, the recipes, the clear clarified instructions in her book makes the process of moving forward to a healthier lifestyle very motivating. I’ve completed several challenges which brought continued success to my fit life, but with this quarantine the structure and my healthy eating became a big problem. I thank you Nicole for helping me reset my priorities and learning how to be persistent and consistent regarding my health and first and foremost learning how to eat healthier again. I am on my way to losing my remaining 11lbs. Thank you my favorite fit sister and keep up the great work!!!
Coach Twy, you are amazing! You did wonderful by me and I thank you for that. With your detailed and step by step directions, and most importantly making us plan first was a winner in my book. You have me looking at my sleep and my morning and bedtime routines way different.
I believe I did pretty darn good! With the help of my partner, your many emails and message reminders as well as a support group of other amazing women, there was no way I could not NOT do my best to stay the course. Thank you for this amazing jumpstart to see my health needs in a different light.
Coach, you exceeded your intentions for me in this challenge.
Thank you.
@coach Twy you did an amazing job with the 10 day sugar detox. My eyes were truly opened on how bad I have been to my body. During this week I didn’t do as well as I would hope due to some financial reasons but I decided to give myself grace. I have fallen but I will not stay there.

@Coach Twy These 2 weeks has been amazing meeting all my expectations. Never before have I been in a program where ther was so much love, partnership, and sisterhood all encouraging each other to success. This really was impressive to me. You did that Coach! With your help I was able to meet my weight loss plans by putting in place the belief in myself ,commitment, sisterhood for support ,and encouragement. This is a game changer for me. These good habits I will now incorporate in others areas in my life. Nothing to change just keep it going. Thank you for all you are doing in the behalf of women all over.
@ Coach Twy you did an excellent job with the challenge. I like the way the Diva tasks were broken down each day for us so that we knew exactly what we needed to do. I do wish that we were able to access the meal planner and habits tracker when we started the challenge. Perhaps those can be sent out when they are assigned during the challenge. I absolutely loved how you made sure we were focusing on ourselves. I learned that meal planning isn’t as hard as I thought it was. But most importantly, you helped me realize that it’s okay not to be good at everything at once. I’m taking baby steps so that I can have a lifetime impact on my health!
This is my 2nd time participating in the Sugar Detox Challenge. The plan works if you stay focused and stick to it. Put yourself first and trust the process. Thank You @coachtwy
In grading Coach Twy, I give her an A+. She did an excellent job in meeting all her intentions. I am thankful to her for all she does. Thank you Coach.
Definitely and A+!! This challenge started with mindset which set the tone for me to be able to complete the 10 days. I pretty much eat this way anyway, but there were things I could tweak and I learned new tools to use. For example, I learned that our body likes a rhythm when it comes to food. Coach Twy’s positive, upbeat and encouraging personality was also key in keeping g me on track!! I recommend this program hands down!!!
