A lot of the work I do with my clients involves helping them navigate relationships with the people in their lives.

Relationships are a crucial part of our lives, but when we have relationships with people that cause stress and drama, that stress and drama can lead to stress eating.

Helping my clients navigate those relationships and their mindset around those relationships can make for a more smooth interaction and in turn less stress and less turning to food to feel better.

In part three of this podcast series, I am giving you a framework for approaching complicated relationships.

Do you have an absurd amount of dill? This recipe is amazing! Made the dressing, served it with arugula, feta and chickpeas. Would be great on grilled salmon or chicken. https://whatsgabycooking.com/celery-salad/

I’m alive! And wanted to help you all with something it seems everyone struggles with…. Drum roll please….

Meal planning. 😬

Eeekkk I said it. Are you going to stop reading now? 🤣

The goal of my program isn't just to help you reach a goal, it’s to develop the habits necessary to make that goal achievable. To help you become the person that has the habits that create that goal. And one of those habits that help you achieve that goal is meal planning.

Listen… No one wants to meal plan, and I get it, it takes time and effort, two precious resources we barely have any of. But with practice, just like riding a bike or learning to read, it gets easier and you might even learn to like it. 😳

The alternative to meal planing? Eating leftovers you aren’t interested in or ordering take out, which might not serve you in your goals.

Developing the muscle of building a new habit, pushing through the "dread," and doing it anyway is something we work on in my program. It’s been a recent topic of conversation for my coaching clients so thought I would break down my process for everyone.

Meal planning in 5 steps. Dedicate 20-30 minutes to this process every week.

1. Look at your week, and write down the events you have going on each evening (I do that in the top right corner of each day). What do you have going on? What nights do you have time and capacity to prepare a slightly more "complicated" meal and what nights do you need something really easy and possibly from the freezer or left overs? Where do you have time to chop something up or make something ahead of time to set yourself up for success later in the week?

2. What do you want to make? What sounds good to you for the week? I use the grocery list section of this form to make a list of what recipes I want to make. Then plug in the recipes on the nights where it makes the most sense.

3. Make a grocery list. Do you have what you need to make said meals? Compile a list and head to the grocery store or make an instacart purchase.

4. Make the meals. While you are making one meal, see how you can help yourself make another meal later in the week by chopping a vegetable or roasting or cooking something ahead of time.

5. Analyze and repeat. What did you like? What didn't you like? How could you make this easier next go around.

It gets easier over time. He is the link to this awesome planner (PS this was a gift from one of my clients 🥰)

I don’t know about you, but the rate limiting step that holds me back from eating protein is the handling of raw meat. 🤮. It’s something I just don’t enjoy.

So when a protein can be purchased fully cooked, ready to go, I am ALL about it.

Rotisserie chickens are a great option for protein when you have a raw meat aversion like I do and when you are short on time.

You can do SO many different things with them.

Add the chicken to a salad, make it into chicken salad, have a leg as your protein for dinner, put it in a soup, etc

One of the other things I love to do with rotisserie chickens once I’ve enjoyed the protein from them?

Making a bone broth!!!

Bone broth has so many amazing nutritional benefits, it’s great for your skin and joints, and it can be used to help prolong your fasts.

Take everything that is left from the Rotisserie chicken, I mean everything,, throw it in a slow cooker (or instant pot on a slow cooker setting) add a couple of bay leaves and a few springs of thyme, a splash of apple cider vinegar to help leach out as many nutrients as possible and enough water to cover and put in on low for 24 hours. Strain and save.

I will keep it for immediate use, or freeze it to use for later.

On a rainy day like today, it’s such a fun thing to make.

I recently finished my first 48 hour fast and it was actually awesome. I included tea, bone broth and two fasted snacks in the process. It made it so much more enjoyable.

If you are a faster or want to explore longer fasts while supporting your hormones and haven’t read “Eat Like a Girl,” do it.

These are my two new favorite proteins! You can find them at Costco.

I don’t know about you, but the rate limiting step that holds me back from eating protein is the handling of raw meat. 🤮. It’s something I just don’t enjoy.

However, these two beauties, from Costco, take the raw meat handling out of the equation.

The sirloin is great because it comes in two packs, one you can freeze for later use, it’s so easy to reheat, and it tastes great.

The little chicken packs are a great portion of seasoned chicken, again, it makes it really easy to throw in a salad or add to a meal and you can freeze these as well and defrost for later use.

See you in 2025 ❤️
