East Coast Trail Round 2! I had .ca every night for dinner and they were SUBSTANTIALLY better than the random meals I took with me last time. I'd definitely recommend these for any vegan or vegetarian hikers! So easy to prep, nutritious, and yummy. I was pretty disappointed with the ones I had last summer and this made a significant difference to my morale during the day, knowing that a good meal was coming 🌈

The only thing I'll note is that some of them aren't enough total calories if you're having them on their own after a long day of hiking/exercise. Most of them are around 600-800 calories for the full pack, and while they're nutrient dense, it wouldn't be enough if you're hiking up a mountain or doing something extra challenging. They seemed substantial enough for me, probably because of other snacks I had throughout the day.

I put some other pics from the trip at the end because I just love Newfoundland 😍

Zumba helped me to get embodied in a way that no amount of reading, thinking, or therapy could. I had to post a love letter to zumba because it helps me let go of thoughts about my body every week ❤️

Classes almost never involve weight-loss talk, most people are there for the fun of it and not to burn cals, and everyone gets to enjoy music from around the world.

PLUS, they keep coming up with cute body positive things like these clothing size labels. I've seen a lot of different attempts to destigmatize clothing sizes, but this one is my favourite because it's a deliberate reframe without being confusing.

Finding movement that you actually enjoy takes experimentation--I only started going to zumba because a coworker made me go with her one night after work.

Anyway. I dare you to find a class in your neighbourhood and give it a try! 😜 💃🕺

Delicious ways to get more iron in your day: dessert charcuterie!
You might have heard that dried fruit, nuts and seeds contain iron. But certain kinds have much more than others!

Dried apricots and pumpkin seeds, for example, are wayyyy higher than most seeds and dried fruit, and making a snacky dessert with dark chocolate adds even more nutrition and deliciousness!

Other iron-rich treats I found at Bulk Barn: dark chocolate blueberries and ginger!

Eating around a third cup of apricots, 3 squares of chocolate, a few chocolate blueberries and chocolate ginger, and a handful of pumpkin seeds = approx 9mg of iron!!

For context, your average beef burger has around 3mg. It's heme iron, so it's better absorbed than the non-heme iron in these plant foods, but still! 9mg!!

Much more enjoyable than eating liver, imo 😁
