✋️ Stop letting who you were, talk you out of who you are becoming.

Let your dreams be bigger than your fears, and your actions speak louder than your words.

✋️ Stop telling yourself that you are too old or too busy.

Chances are your schedule isn't changing any time soon, and you will never be as young as you are today.

✋️ Stop looking for quick fixes.

Shortcuts usually involve drastic measures and unsustainable changes, which will lead you right back to where you started.

Consume well-balanced meals the majority of the time.

Another one of the best weight loss tips. Aim to eat a balanced meal most of the time—with an emphasis on “most” of the time. Not every meal will be perfectly balanced and that’s okay. Strive for balance overall.

For example, a well-balanced plate would typically include protein on one-quarter of the plate, fat (through sauces, cooking oils, animal protein, or avocado), starchy carbs on one-quarter of the plate, color on one-quarter of the plate (veggies and fruits), and items you actually enjoy eating. If you don’t include foods you genuinely love, this could result in overeating or unhealthy snacking later on.

Make tiny changes during your day.

Small changes can make a big difference in the long run. Little things like opting for the stairs rather than taking the elevator or escalator, for instance, will help you increase your daily step count and burn more calories. It’s a quick opportunity to get a few extra steps in, and those small changes add up when it comes to contributing to your fitness journey.

Vegan Banana Muffins
Serves 12, 1/2 starch, 1/2 fruit, 1/2 fat

Ingredients
3 to 4 very ripe medium bananas
1/4 cup oil, or softened vegan margarine
1 cup organic granulated sugar
2 cups all-purpose flour
1 teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon baking soda
1 cup chopped walnuts, optional
2 tablespoons demerara sugar, or any organic sugar, optional

Directions
Preheat the oven to 350 F and prepare a 12-cup muffin tin either with liners or by lightly greasing. In a large bowl, mash 3 to 4 very ripe medium bananas with a fork until soft.

Add 1/4 cup oil or vegan margarine and 1 cup organic granulated sugar. Mix until creamy.

In a separate bowl, combine the 2 cups all-purpose flour, 1 teaspoon salt, and 1 teaspoon baking soda until well mixed. Add the flour mixture to the banana mixture, stirring gently to combine. Don't overmix. The batter will be thick. If the batter is too dry and not malleable, mash the remaining banana and mix it in.

If using, gently fold in 1 cup chopped walnuts. Alternatively, you can sprinkle them on top of each muffin before baking.

Carefully spoon the batter into the muffin tins, filling each well about 2/3 full. If desired, sprinkle the organic sugar on top just before baking.

Bake the muffins for about 25 minutes or until a toothpick comes out clean when inserted in the center of a muffin. Let cool for a few minutes and enjoy while still warm. Cool entirely for longer storage. Enjoy.

How to Store and Freeze Vegan Banana Muffins
While most baked goods are at their best when fresh, here are a few tips for safe storage of these tasty muffins:

Store at room temperature in a covered container for two to three days.
If not consuming right away, place the muffins in a covered container in the refrigerator for up to a week. Microwave for 20 to 30 seconds before eating to soften the texture.

If freezing, separate the muffins with waxed or parchment paper in a covered container and freeze for up to six months. Thaw them at room temperature, covered, or wrap them in foil and heat in a 375 F oven for about 10 to 15 minutes. For a quick defrost, microwave in 30- to 40-second spans until soft.

Pack in the protein

Protein-packed foods help you feel full and satisfied. Incorporating protein into the majority of your meals, ideally filling up one-quarter of your plate with it, which usually amounts to 20 to 40 grams of protein.

Try to include protein in snacks, and pair with a carbohydrate source (i.e. Greek yogurt with fruit and h**p seeds). It’s important to remember that nutrition isn’t one size fits all. Protein needs are unique based on things like body weight, activity level, medical history, and more. If you’re not sure how to determine your protein needs or want to make sure you’re consuming enough, reach out to your medical provider.

Find an accountability partner.

A weight loss journey is always much more enjoyable when you’re going through it with a friend, loved one, or group of individuals who share the same goal. Share your weight loss goals with a friend or join a support group. Having someone to hold you accountable can boost motivation and commitment.

"The best way to accomplish something is to just do it and then find the courage afterward."⁠
⁠
Are you waiting for the "right time" to begin your weight loss journey? ⁠
⁠
From our experience, people have greater success when approaching their weight loss goals with small daily steps rather than extreme lifestyle changes. ⁠
⁠
Rather than setting unrealistic expectations, we suggest making one change that will move you in the direction of your goals. When you feel comfortable with this habit, choose another to incorporate into your routine and allow these positive changes to snowball.⁠
⁠
Some examples include:⁠

✅ Drinking water in place of pop or juice. ⁠
⁠
✅ Reducing your sugar and sodium intake. ⁠
⁠
✅ Keeping a food diary.⁠

✅ Packing a lunch and limiting restaurant meals.

✅ Using measuring tools to monitor portions.

✅ Limiting or cutting out alcohol.
⁠
✅ Prioritizing sleep.⁠
⁠
✅ Reducing screen time.⁠
⁠
✅ Increasing physical activity.
⁠
Most often, the biggest obstacle to achieving a goal is inaction.
⁠
What small change are you making this week? ⁠
⁠
Post your intention in the comments to anchor your goal and boost accountability.
