The women who lose fat and keep it off aren’t the most disciplined. They’re the ones who build habits they can repeat year after year.

Because lasting results come from sustainable behaviors.

Instead of asking:
“How fast can I lose weight?”

Start asking:
“Could I realistically do this a year from now?”

And if you’re done chasing quick fixes, and ready for a sustainable approach, we’re taking a few new clients for the month of June. Link to apply 👉🏻 https://macroswithem.com/pages/one-on-one

When someone asks whether they should focus on nutrition or exercise... 😂

The truth is, it’s not either/or.

Nutrition is what creates the calorie deficit needed for fat loss.

But strength training helps you maintain muscle, improve body composition, and keep your metabolism high.

👉🏻Calories determine your weight.
👉🏻Macros and strength training influence your body composition.
👉🏻Food quality affects how you feel.
👉🏻Sleep, stress, and habits determine whether you can stay consistent.

I constantly felt like “I should look better for all the work I put in.”

I was weight training, counting macros, tracking steps. But what I wasn’t doing was phasing my nutrition.

I was constantly trying to be in a deficit, leading to over eating every weekend.

It wasn’t until I got really honest with myself and decided how I wanted to feel vs how I wanted to look, that things changed.

I worked on building a foundation first. This meant moving to maintenance. Working on my relationship with food. Feeling more abundant around food rather than restricted (because I was eating and tracking more calories on average.)

I spent almost a year at maintenance before dieting again. But since then, I’ve maintained my weight within a few lbs, and been binge free.

Most of the time the answer isn’t trying harder. It’s making sure your efforts are aimed in the right direction.

I struggled with losing weight and keeping it off for years because I kept trying to diet with a body that wasn’t functioning well, and a mindset that also wasn’t ready for it.

A calorie deficit is a stressor.

So if your:
• sleep is poor
• stress is high
• weekends are inconsistent
• workouts are random
• digestion is off
• you’ve been dieting back-to-back for years

Adding MORE restriction usually makes things worse, not better.

No, you don’t need permission to diet, but your body does need to be in a responsive place first.

The women who get the best results are the ones who:
✔️build consistency first
✔️ recover between dieting phases
✔️ strength train properly
✔️ support their health markers
✔️ create routines their life can actually sustain

Fat loss works better when the foundation is strong.

This is exactly why the majority of our clients start in a priming phase before moving to fat loss. We address all these checkpoints beforehand. Create a solid foundation and habits, that way fat loss feels smoother, and results are easier to maintain.

‼️We’re opening up a few spots in 1:1 coaching for the month of June. If you’re tired of jumping from diet to diet and feel like your body isn’t responding anymore, this is exactly what we work through inside coaching.

We don’t just throw you into a deficit and hope for the best.
We’ll work together to determine what phase your body actually needs first.

For some women, that’s fat loss. For others, it’s priming and rebuilding the foundation so fat loss finally works again.

High Protein Fruit Pizza

1 Joseph’s 60 calorie pita
100g strawberries
50g blueberries
100g vanilla non fat Greek yogurt (I use two good)
10g whipped cream cheese
10g vanilla protein powder
7g (1 tbsp) sf cheesecake pudding mix
Cinnamon & zero calorie sweetener

Spray both sides of the pita lightly with cooking spray, then sprinkle top side with cinnamon & stevia. Bake on 400 for 4-5 minutes until edges are golden brown. You can also broil on high, but watch carefully, or brown in a skillet.

For “icing” mix yogurt, cream cheese, pudding powder and protein powder. Mix completely, it will become thick and fluffy.

Wash fruit, pat dry, then dice strawberries.

Once crust has cooled completely, cover with icing mixture then add your fruit.

Makes 1 fruit pizza which is 1 servings

Macros: 260 calories- 23p/33c/6f + 8g fiber

*If you can’t find Joseph’s pitas, you can use any other low calorie wrap. You can also use different fruits or add other fruits you like.

I spent the majority of my 30’s binge eating in private, feeling ashamed, bloated, and out of control around food.

I had developed a disordered way of eating when I was competing, and it spiraled. The only way I knew to lose the weight was finding another show to compete in and entering competition prep. Then weeks after the show was over, I was back where I started. This went on for a few years.

And just to clarify, not over eating, we’re talking elbow deep in a box of s’mores cereal, pop tarts in the toaster, and digging out oatmeal cream pies. I would easily eat 1,500+ calories in minutes. To the point of being completely stuffed, then immediately remorseful.

Swipe for what helped me finally stop binge eating, feel in control around food, and lose the weight and actually keep it off.

Progressive overload matters, but only when you can actually control the movement.

Adding weight over time is how we build strength and muscle, but if the second you go heavier your range of motion decreases, your form is compromised, or you’re only doing partial reps for the entire set, that’s not effective overload.

Helpful tips:

👉🏻Do the exercise with no weight to test full range of motion. You can even do this with dumbbell exercises, doesn’t just have to be machines.

👉🏻Record yourself. Some may not like to do this, but it’s one of the most effective ways to improve form. Had I not been recording myself, I likely wouldn’t have known I increased weight too much to get the full depth I’m capable of.
