August 22, 2023 05:00 - 12 minutes - 22.2 MBLosing weight can feel like riding a roller coaster, and hitting that weight loss plateau can feel like the biggest hill to climb. The journey is filled with crazy ups, challenging downs, unexpected twists, and many turns. Just as a roller coaster offers a mix of excitement and uncertainty, so does the process of dropping those extra pounds. As a nutrition coach working closely with clients on their weight loss goals, I often find that the path to success resembles a roller coaster ride more...
Ep. 77 - Adding Vegetables Into Your Daily Routine Using The Best Self Method
August 08, 2023 12:48 - 13 minutes - 12.9 MBBy definition, habit means "a settled or regular tendency or practice, especially one that is hard to give up." There are many theories out there that habits take 21 days to solidify, however, according to research on average, habits take 66 days to build. Some take as few as 18 days and some may take 200+ days. Why is that? Training yourself to build new habits isn’t always as simple as “I’m just going to do this every single day”. It would be nice if it was that easy, wouldn’t it? T...

August 01, 2023 10:36 - 14 minutes - 13.8 MBThere is a cycle of nutrition, and it isn't just about food. As a nutrition coach, I often find that when someone comes to me to “eat healthier” they are surprised to find that I won't just write up a meal plan. To be fair, I’m not a registered dietician so I can’t legally write meal plans… but that’s beside the point. As a nutrition coach, I work with people on the nutrition ON their plate and their habits OFF their plate. There’s a saying “Abs are made in the kitchen” and I'm going t...

More so than normal lately, I’m hearing the words “gut health, inflammation, heal your gut, etc” It’s not a bad thing. We all should be doing it.

As part of the community, I will also be providing bi-weekly live training. To give you a glimpse into what the community will be getting, I’m going to invite you to this week...

May 30, 2023 05:01 - 14 minutes - 13.5 MBIt's time for a healthy Summer. Summer break is here (or coming soon) in most of the US. Fun in the sun, graduation parties, family cookouts, golf outings, beach trips, sporting events, tailgating, and more. Personally, it’s my favorite time of the year. It also can be the most chaotic. Those parties, cookouts, sporting events, and times in the sun also mean a lack of routine, more food (often not healthy), and less opportunity to hit the gym. I will start this by saying THIS IS NOT A BAD...

May 09, 2023 05:01 - 15 minutes - 14.2 MBMoving your body doesn’t have to be complicated.

March 21, 2023 05:00 - 14 minutes - 26.1 MBI could start and end this episode with one sentence, “fast food is still fast food” but that also wouldn’t be fair to those who truly want to learn. While I get the convenience, we are relying TOO much on fast food these days and often deem it a “healthy option” as a good substitute for a homecooked meal. I’m not saying we shouldn’t rely on fast food. However, it’s important to know what the trade-off is. There are ways to make your fast food meal a healthier option but there are things t...
