I can’t tell you how many times I hear “I’ll be out of town next week so I’ll get back on track once I get home” or some version of that. The thing is, one of the best tests of your health is how you MAINTAIN it while out of your normal routine. This doesn’t mean you can’t have fun and “splurge” if you feel called to that, but if it’s at the cost of your health how worth it is it really? I still have tons of fun when I’m out of town and what helps me have fun and enjoy is actually STAYING on my usual nutrition/wellness routine. Because when I don’t symptoms pop up and I get uncomfortable and then I’m not even having fun at all nor do I feel cute in my outfits I packed for my trip. And let's face it girls, feeling cute in our outfits is a big deal. Now look, I know it can be temping sometimes. I was just at a 2 day seminar and they served lunch both days and the last day there was a cocktail hour with a dessert table. (and yes a cocktail hour at a health seminar 🤯) And GUESS WHAT?! None of it was healthy! There were some semi healthy aspects, but there was probably seed oils and other additives in the food. This was a non issue for me because I packed my own food and planned ahead. For those that were planning on eating the food provided I’m sure it was an issue, but not having any other options they concluded with “oh well I’ll just eat it.” The biggest lesson I have learned with eating out and eating when traveling is always expect places NOT to having a healthy option. This way I’m always prepared. If they happened to have something I could have great! I can save what I brought for later. But going hungry and waiting until later to eat is never a smart option. Because you WILL end up making a worse choice out of being overly hungry. You NEVER want your hunger to get ahead of you because then it controls you and the choices you make. What are ways you keep your health on track when traveling?? Any hacks you have that you’d like to share??💫

Hi Everyone! Two things I hear often is "how do I build muscle or get toned?" and "how much protein do I need to get toned?" It's really quite simple. You need to work the muscles to build strength and tone and you need to eat enough nourishing food daily that has glucose and amino acids. You can provide your muscles with all the aminos acids and glucose needed to get toned, but if you're not actively working the muscle nothing will happen. Fruits are one of the best foods to support our muscles both in fueling a workout and in recovery. So it's easy to take the first step: eat more fruit. The next may be more difficult: be more active and lift more weights. You don't have to be lifting crazy heavy weights. You can simply lift whatever feels challenging or even just start with body weight. If you are curious where to start comment WORKOUT and I'll send you my 7-day workout guide!

Happy new month to you all, May you all be blessed according to your heart desires Amen 🙏
