Do you love grocery shopping? If you’re like me, grocery shopping can be a task if you’re not prepared. I’m not the best grocery shopper and I’m fine admitting that. I can’t tell you how many times I’ve walked into the grocery store without a plan and walked out with so many items that I didn’t need. And if you’re trying to eat healthy, walking out with items that you don’t need or want can be detrimental to your nutrition plan.
Read MoreI can’t tell you how many people I see on a weekly, monthly, yearly basis that want to lose weight. It’s my job, it’s my life and it’s my mission to help them succeed. There is probably nothing more rewarding in my career than when someone tells me I made an impact on their weight loss journey. Yet, one thing I’ve come to realize is that many people set a weight loss goal but they don’t know exactly how to get there or how to execute that goal. Guests of our fitness retreat consistently tell me they want to lose weight. Whether someone wants to lose 10, 15 or 40 pounds, the question is how will they achieve the goal?
Read MoreBeing prepared is half the battle and 90% of the key to success. Wether you’re trying to improve your health, your performance in a particular sport or lose weight, meal prep can make your life so much easier.
One secret to success in body transformation (weight loss, improved health and/or performance goals) is keeping it simple. Thinking less. Making fewer decisions. And letting your environment do much of the work for you.
If healthy food is around you and convenient, you’re more likely to eat it. If you have a trusted system for making healthy food available, you don’t have to decide to eat well… you just show up and do it. Our meal prep strategies will help you keep it simple, healthy and delicious!
Read MoreProtein cookies seem to be the new thing. Everywhere I go, everywhere I look in the grocery store or convenient store there seems to be a protein cookie staring back at me. I love the concept and I love the fact that food manufacturers are making an effort to produce something better than the regular old sugar laden cookie. I know what you’re thinking… Yes, a lot of the “protein cookies” out there are still junk but some of them aren’t so bad (in taste or ingredients).
I was curious about these new cookies and I’ll try anything once. So, I made it my job to taste test some of the most common protein cookies out there. I’ve tasted at least 10 from grass-fed whey to vegan protein cookies. It’s a hard job but someone’s got to do it! Ok but seriously, I wanted to see what all of the fuss is about. I picked three of my favorite protein cookies from the bunch to share with you.
Read MoreDoes this sound familiar? You’ve been working your tail off. You’re consistent. You go to the gym religiously. Your food is in check. You’re drinking enough water and journaling every crumb that goes in your body and every calorie that is burned. This time you’re going to do it! The first few weeks you saw results and you were so motivated, right? And then the results started tapering off even though you were dedicated and sticking to your plan. All of a sudden, your progress came to a halt. So now what?
Read MoreMmmmm…anything fajita inspired makes my stomach say yes, please! I love fajitas, tacos, burritos, quesadillas. Oh yea, and I also love chips and salsa. I think I mentioned in a blog post recently that I love food. I love good food and I love great tasting food. So my mission has become to make some of my favorite food in a healthier version.
Read MoreI love cheeseburgers. I know there are others out there who love a good burger. Give me a medium rare, high quality beef (or grass-fed beef) burger and I’m so happy. I love a delicious, juicy burger and fries. I’m just like everyone else and I have my “comfort food” loves. As much as I love a burger and fries, I also know that a burger and fries combo isn’t the healthiest out there for me. So I created a perfect, low carb and healthier option to a burger!
Read MorePeople practice yoga for many different reasons. Some love yoga for the physical benefits, for the spiritual benefits and others are attracted to the mental/psychological aspects that yoga brings to their life.
