Have you been looking for ways to lose weight in a sustainable manner? Well look no further! I have many tips that have helped my clients and myself lose/maintain weight in a way that can be sustained over a long period of time!🥑🥒🫐🍓

1. Choose only high-quality and lean proteins. Snacks such as chomps turkey sticks, cottage cheese, or greek yogurt are great options. Include a good combination of plant and animal proteins like tofu, garbanzo beans, chicken, or fish to your daily meals.🐟🐓
2. Keep an active lifestyle daily! Doing things such as walking after meals helps promote better digestion or getting 10k steps a day helps enhance daily functions. Also incorporate low or high impact workouts 3-4 days a week to help build/maintain strength. 🏋🏼‍♀️
3. Start your day with 5-10 minutes of meditation, this helps manage stress and helps you with your pathway to a healthy lifestyle. 🧘🏽‍♀️

These are just 3 tips of many that I have for weight management. For more healthy recipes or tips, visit my blog! https://dietitianmo.wordpress.com/services-offered-2/

How do you like to start your morning? I personally like to start my day with two glasses of lemon water with some local honey, yoga & meditation for a half an hour, and I like to have a smoothie for breakfast & Orgain remains to be my protein of choice!

* Lemon water in the morning helps provide hydration, support digestion, gives a vitamin C boost, and can support skin health.
* Doing yoga and meditation every morning can help with distress and have you feeling calm and ready for your day!
* Starting your day with an orgain protein shake helps provide nutrients to support muscle maintenance & growth, keeps you fuller longer, and helps with weight management!

Orgain protein is plant-based and provides 20-30g of protein per serving depending on which one you chooses It provides clean and healthy nutrition for all ages as they also have kids protein options! I recommend orgain protein for anyone, whether it be powdered protein to add to homemade smoothies or premade protein drinks sold by orgain! 🌿🌱

Magnesium isn’t one-size-fits-all especially for women navigating menopause and active lifestyles.

Here’s a quick breakdown to choose the right form:

Best for Menopausal Support
Magnesium Glycinate
✔️ Calms the nervous system
✔️ Supports sleep, anxiety, and mood
✔️ Gentle on the stomach
✔️ May help with suppressing appetite
✅ Linked to short-term relief from depression

Magnesium Taurate
✔️ Supports heart health
✔️ Helps regulate stress
✅ Great for women with high cardiovascular demands

Other Forms of Magnesium:

Magnesium Citrate
✔️ Muscle recovery + mild constipation relief
⚠️ Not ideal long-term + may cause digestive upset

Magnesium Malate
✔️ Energy production
✔️ Reduces muscle soreness + fatigue
✅ Great for endurance athletes

Magnesium Threonate
✔️ Supports cognitive recovery
✔️ Improves sleep + mental focus

Magnesium Chloride
✔️ Rapid absorption
✔️ Restores electrolyte balance post-sweat

Magnesium Sulfate (Epsom Salt Baths)
✔️ Soothes sore muscles

💡 Key Reminder:
Not all magnesium supplements are created equal.
For menopausal women, start with magnesium glycerinate. It is effective, gentle, and proven to help mood + sleep.

If you are getting confusing messages about seed oils then read this post.

Many online health circles claim that seed oils are “toxic” or “inflammatory”, but from a dietitian standpoint, seed oils can be safe and beneficial in moderation. These oils are plant-based like soybean oil, canola oil, or corn oil. Most seed oils are high in polyunsaturated fats, especially omega-6 fatty acids. Studies show that those with a higher intake of these seed oil vs. those with a higher intake of butter had a lower risk of dying prematurely from heart disease or cancer. Seed oils get their bad reputation because of where they show up, namely ultra processed foods so avoiding those would be the key, again moderation is my mantra though my favorites still are olive oil and avocado oils.

Sustaining a healthy lifestyle can sometimes feel overwhelming. Creating a checklist can help keep you on track and make it satisfying to check off each accomplishment. Everyone’s path to wellness looks different, so tailor it to what makes you feel your best.

We’ve included a few ideas and a template to make and get you started! Remember, balanced meals are key to add in daily. Aim to include a complex carbohydrate, protein (both plant and animal), healthy fat, and a good source of vitamins and minerals in each meal. And don’t forget to stay hydrated!

Have you ever heard of aspartame before or have you seen it on your food labels? Recently, food labels have changed the word aspartame to amino sweet, which is something that is beneficial to know!

Aspartame or amino sweet is an artificial sweetener that is used in various foods. Though it is safe to consume in moderate amounts, it still can be harmful for your overall health if consumed regularly in larger amounts. Aspartame is made from phenylaline which is an amino acid that is building block for protein that may be too much for your body to metabolize. Some evidence shows that it may cause weight management issues, risk for preterm deliveries, and can lead to specific cancers (liver or kidney). It can also impact brain function and can cause impairment or decreased cognitive function. Make sure next time you are at the store, you read your labels carefully to make sure you are being cautious of avoiding aspartame! For more clean eating ideas visit my website at
