Budget friendly shopping tips!⁣⁣⠀
⁣⁣⠀
1) Take inventory of your kitchen first. See what you already have that you can use!⁣⁣⠀
⁣⁣⠀
2) Make a plan/menu based on what you have, then make a list for everything else you need ⁣⁣⠀
⁣⁣⠀
3) Use grocery pick up services! This is the biggest money saver because you’re not adding random things in the cart like you would at the store. Stick to your list!⁣⁣⠀
⁣⁣⠀
4) Many stores have their own off brand products (yes, even organic) that are basically the same thing but cheaper 💵⁣⁣⠀
⁣⁣⠀
5) Skipping the processed/packaged food is not only good for your health but good for your wallet too. There’s a price you pay for the foods that are conveniently pre packaged.⁣⁣⠀
⁣⁣⠀
⁣⁣⠀
I’ll be placing a pick up order this weekend and would love to see your orders too. Tag me in your weekend grocery trips and let’s see how much money you save this time around! 😊💸

{Pregnancy Update} Been a little MIA on here lately just trying to take care of myself and baby but we are feeling great ❤️⁣⁣⠀
⁣⁣⠀
I was diagnosed with gestational diabetes and it came as a complete shock to me (and everyone around me who knows my lifestyle). I honestly felt like a failure as a mom and nutritionist. I have asked myself many many times how ME of all people, someone who teaches other people how to be healthy, someone who eats healthy and is consistently active is diagnosed with GDM?! ⁣⁣⠀
⁣⁣⠀
I’ve slowly come to terms with the diagnosis and simply learned that GDM (gestational diabetes mellitus) doesn’t discriminate and 50% of women have no risk factors AT ALL (cough, cough, ME). Quite frankly, your placenta just likes to mess with your hormones even more during pregnancy and some mamas just can’t keep up with them. ⁣⁣⠀
⁣⁣⠀
So once all of the guilt, shame, shock, panic and blame wore off I actually decided to turn this unfortunate situation into something that can be used for good. If anything, this is going to make me a better nutrition coach and allow me to better understand and relate to my clients. ⁣⁣⠀
⁣⁣⠀
I am confident that the amount of research I have already done (and will continue to do) will allow me to excel in taking care of other women AND take care of baby Lane. ⁣⁣⠀
⁣⁣⠀
I’ve gone to many health experts for advice and have been told there’s not a whole lot to change in my diet and lifestyle, so the few changes I am able to make have allowed me to manage my blood sugar without medication thus far.⁣⁣⠀
⁣⁣⠀
We are taking things day by day, and sometimes those days consist of a lot of tears and anger but we are making it! ⁣⁣⠀
⁣⁣⠀
If I was ever unsure about becoming a mother this sacrifice I am willing to take for my son (aka eating not carbs during pregnancy) should solidify how ready I am to become a mom 💙🤪 ⁣⁣⠀
⁣⁣⠀
So over the next 10 weeks I’ll be sharing my journey and what I’m doing to help manage GD and prepare for babe to get here! ⁣⁣⠀
⁣⁣⠀
Any other mamas out there get a shocking GD diagnosis?

🎉Breaking free of the old diet cycle...⁣⁣⠀
⁣⁣⠀
Double tap if you know this cycle all too well 💗 ⁣⁣⠀
⁣⁣⠀
I have been through these stages of dieting more times than I can count. I’ve tried every diet out there, I’ve lost and gained back the same weight over and over again. ⁣⁣⠀
⁣⁣⠀
I was TIRED of always dieting, always restricting my favorite foods and always starving!! I finally broke free of the bingeing and guilt and found the healthy balance I had always been striving for!⁣⁣⠀
⁣⁣⠀
I am FREE of the diet cycle and you can be too!!⁣⁣⠀
⁣⁣⠀
•You don’t have diet again and again just to lose the same 10 pounds over and over. ⁣⁣⠀
⁣⁣⠀
• You don’t have to starve yourself ⁣⁣⠀
⁣⁣⠀
• You don’t have to turn down social events because you’re scared to be around food ⁣⁣⠀
⁣⁣⠀
What phase of the diet cycle are you currently in? ⁣⁣⠀

The holiday weekend has come and gone and for some of you that means guilt, starvation and punishment for what you ate/drank 🥴 ⁣⁣⠀
⁣⁣⠀
Rather than cutting out carbs and sugar, trying a celery juice cleanse and running off those extra calories let’s try a few things that will 𝐚𝐜𝐭𝐮𝐚𝐥𝐥𝐲 work to get you back in routine and feeling great 🎉⁣⁣⠀
⁣⁣⠀
1. Get back into routine- workout your normal 3x/week, plan out your meals, get your grocery shopping done and go to sleep on time!!! 💕 Catch up on the lost rest from this weekend ⁣⁣⠀
⁣⁣⠀
2. Don’t starve yourself to make up for the overconsumption. ❌ All this will do is confuse your body and disable your metabolism from working. Eat normally- with a plate full of protein, healthy fats and fiber. ⁣⁣⠀
⁣⁣⠀
3. Drink extra water- you’re likely feeling extra bloated and seeing some extra water weight on the scale so drinking water will help alleviate any dehydration and bring your body back to its normal state 💦⁣⁣⠀
⁣⁣⠀
4. Detoxing is never the answer. Let me say that again… 𝐃𝐄𝐓𝐎𝐗𝐈𝐍𝐆 𝐈𝐒 𝐍𝐄𝐕𝐄𝐑 𝐓𝐇𝐄 𝐀𝐍𝐒𝐖𝐄𝐑. Again, we don’t want o confuse our bodies with high calorie to immediate no calorie so let’s just skip the detox/ cleanse and follow the 3 steps mentioned above instead 😘 ⁣⁣⠀
⁣⁣⠀
What tip are you implementing this week to get back into normal routine?

So frequently I hear about women going on a low carb or super low calorie diet to lose weight 𝐟𝐚𝐬𝐭 😩⁣⁣⠀
⁣⁣⠀
But thankfully, science is proving that method isn’t necessary to reach your goals and feel your best!⁣⁣⠀
⁣⁣⠀
When it comes to your health, I strongly encourage you to get the necessary help you need to learn how to properly fuel your body and enjoy the process⁣⁣⠀
⁣⁣⠀
Creating a healthy lifestyle is exactly that…a lifestyle, not a fad. ⁣⁣⠀
⁣⁣⠀
It’s not:⁣⁣⠀
⁣⁣⠀
👉🏼A certain weight ⁣⁣⠀
⁣⁣⠀
👉🏼Cutting out carbs⁣⁣⠀
⁣⁣⠀
👉🏼A certain jean size ⁣⁣⠀
⁣⁣⠀
👉🏼Eating less than 1,200 calories/ day⁣⁣⠀
⁣⁣⠀
👉🏼A certain diet (low carb ❌)⁣⁣⠀
⁣⁣⠀
You should be 𝐓𝐇𝐑𝐈𝐕𝐈𝐍𝐆 in your lifestyle, not just 𝐬𝐮𝐫𝐯𝐢𝐯𝐢𝐧𝐠 💕 ⁣⁣⠀
⁣⁣⠀
✨Get the help and support you need and deserve and never look back! ⁣⁣⠀
⁣⁣⠀

It’s beginning to look a lot like 𝐒𝐔𝐌𝐌𝐄𝐑 around here ☀️ ⁣⁣⠀
⁣⁣⠀
And for most of you that means sunshine, vacations and 𝐚𝐥𝐜𝐨𝐡𝐨𝐥 😜 ⁣⁣⠀
⁣⁣⠀
So let’s talk reaching your goals while drinking alcohol because guess what? It CAN be done. ⁣⁣⠀
⁣⁣⠀
Alcohol actually prevents your body from burning fat, so while we may want to live a balanced life, if your goal is to lose fat or increase your metabolism it’s important to take a look at not only your alcohol intake but what your actions are before, during and after drinking! ⁣⁣⠀
⁣⁣⠀
🙅🏻‍♀️ What not to do when drinking:⁣⁣⠀
⁣⁣⠀
- Don’t under-eat all day just to “make room” for your drinks. ⁣⁣⠀
⁣⁣⠀
- If you drink too much and feel guilty the next day, don’t eat more garbage 🗑 ⁣⁣⠀
⁣⁣⠀
- Don’t drink every day of the week. The less days you drink the better. ⁣⁣⠀
⁣⁣⠀
Because alcohol is the first thing thats burned in your body, you’re no longer burning fat until all the alcohol is gone (about 24 hours). So drinking every night means you’re only burning alcohol and not allowing time for your metabolism to burn fat aka- fat is being stored. ⁣⁣⠀
⁣⁣⠀
DO: ⁣⁣⠀
⁣⁣⠀
✨ Eat a nourishing, fueling meal before and during drinking. Focus on a protein rich meal like taco salad or pan seared salmon ⁣⁣⠀
⁣⁣⠀
✨ Pass on the tacos and whataburger after a night of drinking...no need for the extra calories ⁣⁣⠀
⁣⁣⠀
✨ Wake up the next day thankful for the memories from the night before and ready to continue living a healthy lifestyle: eat a breakfast full of protein, healthy fats and fiber, drink a TON of water and pick up where you left off ☺️ ⁣⁣⠀
⁣⁣⠀
✨ Stick to the simple drinks- vodka, soda & lime, whiskey & water, etc. ⁣⁣⠀
⁣⁣⠀
I may be 25 weeks pregnant but teaching you the importance of alcohol and reaching your goals is still top priority for me! ⁣⁣⠀
⁣⁣⠀
What is your go-to drink in the summer? Let me know in the comments! ⁣⁣⠀
Bonus points for non- alcoholic 😜

How to 𝐃𝐄𝐂𝐑𝐄𝐀𝐒𝐄 your cravings 🎉 ⁣⁣⠀
⁣⁣⠀
Cravings usually come from a blood sugar imbalance, which can come from eating too many carbs in one sitting and not balancing those carbs with a protein, healthy fat, or fiber. ⁣⁣⠀
⁣⁣⠀
Carbohydrates are digested faster than any macronutrient and causes a dip in our blood sugar which then causes us to CRAVE more sugary, carby foods in order to balance out your blood sugar again.⁣⁣⠀
⁣⁣⠀
So here are a few things to add to your day to ensure you don’t have the blood sugar dips/spikes and no longer have cravings for all the sugar 👏🏼⁣⁣⠀
⁣⁣⠀
💖 Don’t eat carbs alone- whether a snack or a meal, create a plate that has carbs paired with a protein or healthy fat 🍗🥑⁣⁣⠀
⁣⁣⠀
💖 Eat to satiety- create meals full of protein to help keep you fuller longer and listen to your body as you start to fill up. Overstuff leads to higher insulin levels causing you to think you’re hungry an hour after your meal⁣⁣⠀
⁣⁣⠀
💖 Eat breakfast!! Breakfast is by far the most important meal of the day and helps create a successful day ahead. Have a meal like eggs and veggies with avocado to start your day off strong with protein and healthy fats! ⁣⁣⠀
⁣⁣⠀
What are your goals and how are you going to take action today to decrease cravings and reach those goals?! ⁣⁣⠀
⁣⁣⠀
Creating a healthy lifestyle doesn’t have to be complicated...just take it one step at a time and appreciate the journey! 💖⁣⁣⠀
⁣⁣⠀
Are you ready to ditch your cravings? If so, send me a dm for more tips! ⁣⁣⠀
