Fuel to Thrive

We are a group of dietitians and personal trainers wanting to help you optimize your health! We educate, empower, and walk alongisde our clients.

We love working with athletes, those with chronic GI conditions, and peri/menopausal women! Fuel can be looked at literally, as food, and metaphorically, as passions. I think we need to recognize what fuels us metaphorically before looking at what fuels us literally. What gets you excited? What gets you out of bed in the morning? Is it a competition you are training for, or is it the moments you g

et to spend playing with your grandkids? No matter what fuels you metaphorically, I can help you find what fuels you literally. I do this by living up to my mission: Redefine health. Empower individuals. Create lasting changes.

Perimenopause and menopause can feel like a whirlwind—hot flashes, weight changes, mood swings, and a flood of conflicting advice.⁠

When Scott (name changed for privacy) first started working with our dietitian Lori, he was using Ozempic to manage his weight. While it helped jumpstart progress, he wanted weight loss and long-term changes in his health that didn’t rely on medication.⁠
⁠
Lori worked closely with Scott over the next 4 months, focusing on:⁠
✅ Building balanced and tasty meals with adequate protein, produce, whole grains, and healthy fats that could feed the whole family and meet his nutrition goals⁠
✅ Learning how to honor hunger and fullness cues, and building in consistent fueling that his body needed to function throughout the day⁠
✅ Identifying emotional and stress-related eating triggers without shame⁠
⁠
The result?⁠
✅ Scott tapered off Ozempic with his provider’s guidance⁠
✅ Continued losing weight sustainably after stopping the medication⁠
✅ Gained confidence in his knowledge and ability to eat a balanced, nourishing diet⁠
✅ Transformed not just his own habits—but his family’s eating patterns, too⁠
✅ Saw improvements beyond the scale, including better energy and digestion⁠
⁠
This is what true transformation looks like—no extremes, just consistent habits that feel good and work for real life.⁠

☀️ Summer in Spokane is TOO BEAUTIFUL to stay inside — think blue skies, river trails, and endless ways to move your body outdoors. Whether you're training for something big or just looking to stay active, summer is a great time to reconnect with movement that feels good. ⁠

And with the Fourth of July tomorrow, it’s the perfect time to enjoy all the outdoor adventure Spokane has to offer — before the fireworks light up the sky!⁠ 🇺🇸✨

Some favorite Spokane ways to get moving:⁠
🚴‍♂️ Walk, run or bike along the Centennial Trail⁠
🚶‍♀️ Hike through Riverside State Park⁠
🏊 Swim, paddleboard, or kayak at Liberty Lake or Fish Lake⁠
🌼 Check out the wild flowers along High Drive Trails
🧘 Outdoor yoga in the park (Spokane has the BEST parks!)⁠
⛰️ Hike up to the Rocks of Sharon or Iller Creek for a sunset view⁠

☀️ Pro tip: move early or later in the day to beat the heat, stay hydrated, and always make room for rest and recovery.⁠

No matter how you choose to move this summer, let it fuel your energy, joy, and connection to this amazing place we call home.⁠

What’s your go-to Spokane summer activity?⁠

Summer BBQs are all about good food and good vibes — but they don’t have to throw your nutrition off track. Here are some easy tips to keep your plate balanced and your body happy:⁠
⁠
- Load up on veggies: Grilled corn, peppers, zucchini, or a big colorful salad help fill you up and add fiber.⁠
⁠
- Choose lean proteins: Think chicken, turkey burgers, fish, or plant-based options like grilled tofu or veggie patties. I’m a big fan of kababs — they’re one of my favorite BBQ dishes and a great way to mix lean meat with veggies!⁠
⁠
- Go whole grain when you can: Swap regular buns for whole wheat or lettuce wraps for a fresh crunch.⁠
⁠
- Watch the drinks: Stay hydrated with water or sparkling water⁠
⁠
- Grill smart: Avoid charring meat too much; flip often and marinate with herbs and citrus for flavor without extra fat.⁠
⁠
- Don’t forget dessert: Fresh fruit or a yogurt-based treat keeps it light and satisfying.⁠
⁠
BBQ season is for enjoying — not stressing. What’s your go-to healthy BBQ swap? ⁠
