Looking for a way to keep track of the food you eat without having to track calories?
🥗
Give the balanced plate visual a try.
🥗
You can also think of it as 50%, 30%, 20%.
50% of your plate is fruit and/or veg
30% of your plate is lean protein
20% of your plate is carbs….any carb you want…even a simple carb!🤯
Give this a try for a few weeks and see if it helps you keep better track of what you are putting in your body.
If you want 1:1 nutrition coaching support, book your free consult.

B*%ch please.
Just because you don’t like veggies doesn’t mean they are toxic…..except onions. Those things are nasty. 🧅

Oats are GOOD FOR YOU!
Don’t listen to the haters on here that tell you oats are “bad”.
They don’t know what the f they are talking about.
Here’s what I put in my oats to add in extra protein and to keep me full for longer:

1/2 cup quick oats
1/2 tbsp ground flax
1/2 cup milk (2%, 18 grams protein)
1/3 cup egg whites

Microwave the oats, flax and milk for 1 minute.
Remove from the microwave and mix in the egg whites.
Microwave the cooked oats and egg whites for 15 seconds.
Mix. Microwave agin if need be.
Mix. The oats should be nice and creamy.
Top with 1 cup of your choice of fruit.
Enjoy!

15 years of being a parent and caregiver to a child with a disability has given me some mad skills.
It’s also given me great coping skills and a slightly warped sense of humor.
All of this makes me a unique coach unlike many other nutrition coaches out there.

You may have eaten a lot of chocolate yesterday.

I know I did.

Today you can go back to eating a lot of chocolate OR you can choose to eat LESS chocolate and continue eating mainly whole, minimally processed meals.

If your longterm goals are weight loss or other health improvements, don’t let one day of indulgence derail you.

Today go back to making healthy food choices, exercise, move your body, drink your water and enjoy your day!
Here’s what is used to make this meal:
🍞2 slices of squirelly bread
1 tbsp low fat mayo
Mustard (any amount)
1 slice cheddar cheese
Deli meat of choice (I used 5 slices of turkey)
Sliced tomato
Lettuce
Pinch of salt
100 grams of your choice of veggie/fruit

Healthy eating doesn’t have to be complicated.
