Cassidy Smith - Certified FASTer Way to Fat Loss Coach

Tell me you tried ALL THE THINGS to get your autoimmune illness under control …

I’m actually retiring these cookbooks. They are from my life BFW - before FASTer Way. They’ve got a few good recipes in them and I still believe in whole food nutrition as much as possible, but the sheer number of ingredients/steps just doesn’t fit my busy life as a mom of 3 active kids.

These books also didn’t help me understand how much I should be eating. I was vastly underestimating how much food - specifically protein - my body needed to heal.

Thankfully the meals in the meal guide are super simple and full of flavor! Keep it simple!!

God made food.

He made it taste awesome and He gave us the tastebuds with which to enjoy it.

God made our bodies.

He made them strong and able to bring life into this world.

has been the first thing that has helped me see how to enjoy food and nurture my body to be the best steward of what he’s given me that I can!!!

I’d love for you to join our community and learn the strategies that provide health, strength and freedom!!!

I’m in for 2023!

I relaxed quite a bit this year regarding my nutrition, but I also wasn’t focused on the inches.

My focus was sleep and strength and I’m so happy to see the progress I made in both of these areas!!

As we head into 2023, I don’t have to worry about dropping my calories to 1200 or killing myself on cardio.

I don’t have to worry about getting “back on the wagon” because there is no wagon!!

My plan? Whole food nutrition, protein and strength training. Just like normal.

I’m not a good blogger…

But this is real life.

We had VBS this morning and I could have driven through somewhere on our way home. But instead it’s tuna salad, bean chips and pickles for a quick lunch. And, although it’s not pretty, it’s delicious and keeps me full!

If you’re trying to do some complicated meal plan, you’re going to burn out and fast.

Stop trying to make a “healthy version” of chicken fried steaks that uses super random hard to find ingredients and Pegasus feathers!

Mix and match:

🍗a protein

🥦a veggie

🍠a carb

Rinse and repeat

I could not be more proud of this woman right here!! She has been my ride or die for 22 years (OMG!) and after having two precious little ladies in two years PLUS a roaring case if hyperemesis gravidarum she was frustrated with the toll it took on her physically.

Since her second baby, she has been committed to her nutrition and trusting the process through the and continues to see the inches come off. Did I mention she also works as a counselor??

I love you and you make me so proud!!

Show Mary some love by dropping her a comment below!

All it takes is one step...

Then another...

Then another...

Before you know it, you've walked a mile - or maybe even more.

But I'm here to tell you that it's okay to start small!! In fact, my clients who have seen the most success are the ones that celebrate the small wins, the non-scale victories, those intangible successes!!

Our health will not be won or lost in one day, one week or even one month. It's the consistency that makes the difference. Each day one step forward...or even a step back...keeps you moving in the right direction in the long-term!!!

What is a small win that I can celebrate with you today?

Is it signing up for the ?

Today is a REST day here in the .

Did you know that getting adequate rest is second to ONLY proper nutrition in our program?

God built a day of rest into our week for a reason, y'all!

It looks different for everyone, whether you enjoy a soothing yoga class or a warm bubble bath. It could be a good book by the fire or a walk around the neighborhood.

Whatever it means to you, make sure you build time into your days and weeks to step back from the grindstone and allow yourself relaxation and recovery!

What do you think when you hear the term "Intermittent Fasting"?

Usually I get one of two responses:

"Oh I could never go that long without eating..."

Or

"I already do that, I just don't eat breakfast..."

There is definitely a right way and a wrong way to implement Intermittent Fasting and, when done correctly, there are more and more studies confirming its multiple benefits!!

If you've ever thought about trying it, I'd love for you to join FASTer Way to Fat Loss CEO Amanda Tress and Registered Dietician Kareen V Turner, MPH, RD as they walk you through common mistakes people make when Intermittent Fasting in a FREE 30-minute training THIS FRIDAY March 26th at 10AM CST!!!

If you're interested you can sign up for this FREE training at the link in my bio!!

I will see you Friday, March 26th at 10:00 AM CST!!
