Is A Plant Based Diet Right For You?

That’s a great question and one I can’t definitely answer for you.  What I will say is that a plant based approach shouldn’t hurt you! The nice thing about a meal delivery like ours is that we take an expansive approach to nutrition.  We have clients that do a combo of plant and animal protein, others that enjoy just plants and some who prefer only animal protein based meals.  Our goal is to assist your life with the nutritional components whatever health journey you’re on without judgment.  Our priority is you! We deliver quality organic meals prepared for you with your specific needs in mind.  In short, we take the guess work out of nutrition whatever meal plan you decide on! Eat Well! Be Well!

DIY- Eat The Rainbow!

An easy way to eat the rainbow is with sweet peppers! Rinse, dry, chop off the top, clean out the seeds, make small cuts in the form of a “T” so it’s easy to stuff, toss with a little olive oil, place upside down on a baking sheet, roast at 425 in the oven for about 30 minutes or until soft, remove from heat and let cool. When you’re ready to eat stuff with your favorite seasoned lean protein, veggies or complex carbs! This is how you can eat the rainbow everyday with minimal effort. Don’t you dare toss those caps either! Bag them and slice or dice them all throughout the week for added crunch to salads, wraps and sautés!

You, Improved!

It will be okay to stick with the old you but improved! It’s that special time of year where everyone seems hell bent on changing everything about themselves. You have lots of great things and habits about you and maybe a few that aren’t so good. It’s not a race. Allow yourself time to evolve and grow into the person you want to be. It requires effort and a long term commitment to yourself. In our “insta” society it can seem like everything happens overnight. It doesn’t. You’re smarter than that! Make 2016 a year to remember not another year of frustration. A great place to start is with what’s on your plate! Eat well! Be well!

This Is Not A Cheat Meal!!

This Is Not A Cheat Meal! If you find yourself cutting out entire food groups in an effort to remain or become thin that sucks! I eat carbs in moderation because they taste good, they provide nutritional value, and the right ones keep you fueled up. If you need some help or you know someone who needs help in building a healthy attitude towards food, all foods, call me!

What We All Fail To Realize With Before And After Photos!

WARNING!! If you love pouring over “before and after” photos please stop reading and keep scrolling. I don’t want to ruin it for you! Just kidding! However, I am going to give you a different perspective when viewing transformation photos. The most overlooked takeaway in B and A photos is that we compare ourselves to others. Our inner dialog might go something like this, “I can’t do that” or “I can do that!” The problem with those thoughts is WHAT IF YOU COULD DO BETTER? Mind blown? Stay with me! When you compare yourself to others you are making incredible assumptions. Everyone has a different metabolic rate, some played sports, some have kids, some take Steroids, some eat clean, some are stressed, some need cardio, some need less cardio. You can’t be summarized in a photo collage. As the year draws to an end and we will all be “pitched” a get fit plan. pay attention to your own thought process. Long term fat loss, if the goal, is a life long journey. It’s not resolved in just a few short weeks or months. In some cases you’ll need to unlearn years of faulty thinking and habits. For others you’ll reach an “aha” moment right away. You have greatness and resilience in you! Don’t be fooled by quick fixes! Do the work and learn to love the process!

Have You Tried the Love Diet?

Have you tried the love diet? First off the results are amazing and the diet is radical! I know you’re thinking, “tell me more and what’s the catch!” The catch is that it’s simple but not easy. The love diet includes healthy, nourishing food for your body. It involves everyday movement and exercise not because you have to but because you want to. You sleep enough. You say no, without guilt, to requests of your personal time. You find reasons to laugh because it matters! You embrace your imperfections because they are unique and beautiful. You love yourself and others even when it’s hard to do so. See what I mean? Simple but not easy!

The One Thing Celebrities Get Right About Fitness!

In many cases a stars’ paycheck can be linked to their appearance.  They have a vested interest to stay looking lean and fit.  Whenever I happen upon an article in People or In Style magazine where a celebrity is praising their trainer, meal delivery or health coach I’m thrilled.  It’s a great reminder and a point not to be overlooked.

For most of us, our paycheck is not determined by our outward appearance or dress size.  So, if those with the most to gain from a stellar appearance hire a trainer, meal delivery, health coach etc how much more do us regular folks need a helping hand!   It certainly takes the pressure off of figuring out what to prepare in the kitchen and how to train in the gym! I’m a healthy chef,  a personal trainer and I hire other trainers to put me through fitness routines regularly.  I know the value of hiring an outside eye to assess my strengths and challenge my inefficiencies.   It’s not weak and is probably the most valuable form of healthcare I can think of!

If you’ve been struggling with getting results in the kitchen and the gym, look no further than your favorite celebrity.  They have the most to gain by being fit and even they need the extra push and regular check in with professionals!
