Food 🥘 is what fuels ⛽️ our body, brain 🧠 , and spirit! It’s not about eating less. It’s truly not. 🙂‍↔️ Many people aren’t eating enough! They aren’t eating nearly enough vegetables or protein, and therefore are hungry often. But they don’t eat. 🙃 It’s about choosing to eat food full of nutrients! WHAT you fuel up your tank with determines how well your machine runs. ❤️

A hearty egg 🥚 scramble is a great way to fuel ⛽️ your body and brain for the day! Breakfast IS very important! Today I tried a new fruit with breakfast, a Pepino Melon 🍈. Not super sweet, good texture. The scramble hit protein, carbs, more protein. And veggies! Steak, one potato 🥔, mushrooms. All leftovers from Saturdays dinner! Added two 2️⃣ duck 🦆 eggs and scrambled. Delicious! 🤤 This is one of the many recipes I share with clients who are working to build muscle AND/OR lose weight.

Craving veggies 🥕 after the holiday? Great! A few weeks ago I made a big list for my clients, of restaurants in Alpena with salads 🥗 and healthIER take out options! It has phone numbers and websites right on it, so that people can print it out and have it at work. I’d love YOUR input, as I’m sure I missed a couple! Need not be a current client to give feedback, and I will share when it is done!:) Private message me and I will send you the document. I can't post it here because this is a public page, and it is a document;/ 🆕 since I made it- BC pizza (the old Kurvan’s) added a salad bar too! Message me and I will send it to you, and will add all other input to the master list that everyone can benefit from! Thanks!

Healthy looks and feels different for every BODY! 170 pounds on one frame looks and feels different on another human. So does 200. 225. 140. It’s just a number. Weight is merely ONE unit of measurement. One 1️⃣. It’s NOT the feeling. I believe whole-heartedly ❤️ in the FEEL GOOD scale, and implement it with my clients. 😍 We focus on small habits that make people FEEL THEIR very best. Not society’s version of best, not the scales best, not someone else’s opinion of best. THEIR BEST! 🙌 If you like that approach and want to feel YOUR best in 2026? Get a little head start in December and get your consult done! ✅ I am already full the first two weeks of January- so you might as well get your start early. 🥰 www.freshfocusnutritionandwellness.com

⭐️ EASY ⭐️ Lunch or dinner idea: canned soup 🥣 ! I took this photo at Meijer the other day. The options are INSANE! There are HUNDREDS of canned soup options, 🤯 and most are a great low calorie lunch or dinner. 🙌 I remember when it was just the Campbell’s roller rack, one section- maybe Mrs.Grass too 😜. Now there are HUNDREDS! They are so fast and easy! Just open and warm up in the microwave. No lunch packing no prep! Add them to your grocery pick up, or grab them when you get your turkey day essentials. 🦃 I tried this Progresso one the other day and it was delicious! 🤤 20g of protein is a good amount for such a fast lunch too! Win! 👏 If you have a favorite good canned soup, PLEASE SHARE a photo of it in comments!!! Thank you! 😊

Make cleaning 🧼 more fun, AND mentally reward yourself for movement at the same time! Next time you start cleaning your house 🏠, 1️⃣Make a cleaning plan. 2️⃣ Crank some great music. 3️⃣ Set your watch/workout tracker to “other”. 4️⃣Challenge yourself to clean for an hour without stopping- and dancing in between! You can burn a lot of calories, have fun, AND check the cleaning 🧹 tasks off the to-do list. ✅ Win-Win-Win! Any movement is movement! 👏

“I can’t have bread 🍞 , too many carbs, it’s bad for you.” “Just cut all carbs, you’ll lose weight”.
——LIES!—— There is no such thing as a “bad food”. 🙂‍↔️ There are foods that are higher in carbs, or calories, or sugar, or fat…. But they aren’t “bad”. Everything in moderation! If you want to truly enjoy food you eat, not feel deprived, and have a food filled life that you love- while being the healthiest version of yourself, it IS POSSIBLE! 🙌 I promise it is. Elimination diets are NOT necessary. Shots 💉aren’t generally necessary. Shame and deprivation and counting calories aren’t necessary! 🙂‍↔️ I’m here to help. I love food and love helping people feel their best! Let’s chat! Www.freshfocusnutritionandwellness.com

(My favorite bread 🍞 recipe pictured here, that I make almost every week, is in comments, don’t worry 😉)

Did you know that sleep, 💤 resting your brain 🧠 , resting your body, and taking time to do something that serves you mentally- are just as important to your health as eating well? YES, 🙌 indeed they are! Mental health IS health! Getting good sleep is imperative, as is simply resting your brain from the crazy noise of the world. 🌎 The journey to your healthiest self starts in your mind! 💕

There is SO MUCH MORE to life than weight and a number on the scale! 👏 You deserve to enjoy 😊 food, movement, treats, lazy days, and indulgent holidays- 🦃 🎄 ALL without self judgement! Sometimes, that is hard. The diet culture BS out there tells you that it’s not possible; that it’s all or nothing. Healthy or not. Good or bad. Dieting or being lazy. That’s BULL! 🙂‍↔️ The holidays are coming up quickly and I am here to help you well before that calendar turns the magic January 1! 🙌 😍Www.freshfocusnutritionandwellness.com
