This time last year!! I never posted my maternity photos because I took them 5 days before my due date, and baby girl came a week and a half later. Then I completely forgot about them because who cares about pregnancy, I had a baby!! 😂 Time is truly flying and I can’t believe we will have a one year old soon 🥹

Creamy and healthy chicken pot soup! It’s loaded with potatoes, veggies, and chicken, and gets a creamy consistency from blending cooked potatoes with a little bit of cream. Made in one pot on the stove and ready in 45 minutes for a cozy and comforting meal!

Peanut butter protein balls! These babies taste like peanut butter cookie dough and come together in a food processor with just 6 simple ingredients. With 6 grams of protein per ball and ready in 15 minutes, they’re perfect for a healthy snack, dessert, and meal prep.

Okay, while I do enjoy watching football, I have no skin in the game this year (go birds!), so the food is where I’ll focus. Sharing some of my favs you can make on Sunday - all are easy to make, packed with flavor, and high in protein! Cause you⁠ still want to feel good eating delicious food!

One-pot chili pasta! This recipe is basically a big bowl of chili with pasta cooked right in it, which adds the perfect addition. Not only does it make for easy cleanup, but the pasta absorbs some of the other flavors for easy and healthy comfort food. It’s ready in 40 minutes and packed with protein for an easy weeknight dinner.⁠

Meal prep during a snow day! No trending audio or a voiceover because I don’t have time to do one. And to be honest, voiceovers aren’t my favorite, and this year is about doing things I love, haha!⁠
⁠
Made some shredded chicken for my cranberry pecan chicken salad, chocolate chip oatmeal bars, and some protein chia pudding. Easy lunch for the week, plus two snacks!⁠

Taco stuffed sweet potatoes! We’ve been making these for years, and finally got a written-out version on the blog. Made seasoned ground meat and your favorite taco toppings for a flavor-packed spin on taco night. They are hearty and comforting, making an easy dinner that the whole family will love.⁠

Creamy chocolate overnight oats! I’m a huge fan of overnight oats for breakfast (or lunch tbh), and these high-protein overnight oats are perfect to satisfy a chocolate craving. Made with rolled oats, chia seeds, greek yogurt, chocolate protein powder, cocoa powder, vanilla, cinnamon, and a touch of maple syrup. They’re thick and creamy and pack 40 grams of protein and 12 grams of fiber!⁠

Some real thoughts lately, and an easy meal! Reminding myself that the things I can worry about on here don’t really matter in real life, but it can be hard not to think about them when some of your business is on social media.⁠
⁠
Anyways, really enjoying pot roast lately for an easy protein that makes a ton. It can be used in so many ways or just serve with some carbs and veggies, and you are set!⁠

2025!! My favorite year yet!

This year FLEW BY. They say time flies when you have a baby, and now I can truly see it. It feels like just yesterday I was pregnant, and soon we will have a one-year-old. Time is a thief!!

Some personal highlights:
- had a baby!! Will anything ever top this?!
- traveled back east for 2 months
- made a trip to JMU
- made some new mom friends & am so grateful for like-minded women to go through motherhood with
- started to read again (I read 27 books this year, which I’m very proud of)

What’s to come next year? Honestly, I have no idea! We will continue to publish macro-friendly recipes, but other than that, I don’t have much planned.

I’m currently watching our daughter full-time while running Eat the Gains, so it’s been a bit of a balancing act and will continue to be. I am so grateful for all the hard work I put in over the last decade, so I can step back some while my business still runs (with the help of my team!). I know this time will be short-lived, and I don’t want to look back and feel like I missed it because I was too focused on working.

On a personal level, I want to start to make sourdough (this has been a goal for like 3-4 years now lol), get “dressed” for the day more often than not, start running again, spend less time scrolling on my phone, travel somewhere (besides the East Coast), and start to play pickleball for fun.

This year has truly been so special. Yes, it was challenging at times, but becoming a mom has been such a wonderful experience, and I don’t know how anything can top it.

I wasn’t as present on Eat the Gains compared to previous years, but you kept showing up and supporting me. And without you, there would be no ETG. I appreciate you being here, trying my recipes, following along with what I’m sharing, sharing my site with friends and family, trusting my recommendations, and more. I am so grateful that you take time out of your day to spend with me! Your continued support doesn’t go unnoticed.

So thank you for supporting me and allowing me to continue to do this as my job - I am so grateful!

Happy New Year and what’s to come in 2026!
