What Consolidation Is For

• To stabilise your new baseline.
• To reduce rebound patterns.
• To build confidence with “normal life” food decisions again (in a structured way).

Your Guiding Principles

• Keep structure: regular meals, steady hydration, steady sleep.
• Avoid dramatic swings (large feasts, alcohol, heavy processed foods early on).
• Track your body’s response: calm observation beats guesswork.
• If your weight fluctuates, respond gently and early rather than over-correcting.

How to Think About “Up Days”

Small fluctuations can be normal during consolidation (water, hormones, salt, stress, sleep). Your job is to keep the overall pattern stable.

1. Check water first.
2. Check salt and processed foods.
3. Return to simple meals for 24–48 hours.
4. Keep movement gentle and consistent.

Ayurvedic Tip (Optional)

• Kapha-leaning: keep meals lighter in the evening; maintain daily walking as a stabiliser.
• Pitta-leaning: avoid “all or nothing” reactions; keep cooling routines and steady sleep.
• Vata-leaning: keep routine predictable; warm meals and regular timing are grounding.

What Comes Next

After Consolidation, you will either:

• transition into a longer-term rhythm (Living Light 5:2), or
• stabilise for a period, then plan a future Bio Body round.
