It won’t seem like there are countless rules, calories and reps to count! You might be surprised at how fun it is too! In the history of good health no one has ever said it sucks! Need help? We are here for you! Eat Well! Be Well!
If you ever see me deep in thought know that I’m probably thinking about new unique dishes to keep CFD clients lean and healthy and healthy and lean. No fake ingredients, no excessive sodium, and little to no sugar. I have a few goals for CFD and it always starts with the thought, “how do I keep you lean and healthy?”
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.
Back to the food……!!!! I get tons of compliments on my dairy free pesto! The reason is simple. Oven roast the garlic for a mild and mellow flavor. Toss a few cloves with Olive Oil and wrap in tin foil. Bake at 350 for about 10 minutes or until slightly brown. Not burnt or charred! Add to your fresh basil, pine nuts, more olive oil, fresh lemon juice, salt and pepper and blend till smooth. This will keep for up to three months in the freezer with no dairy!
Not a week goes by where someone doesn’t mention the 80/20 rule. Practice good nutrition eighty percent of the time and the other twenty is fair game. It always sounds really good and since you’ve heard it before it must be the gospel. Truthfully, I think you should eat well most of the time and have a treat here and there. What does a ‘treat’ really mean though? And what does eating ‘well’ eighty percent of the time really look like. From culture to culture and person to person that can be interpreted very differently. My best and most sensible approach to this math problem…lol…is that we give it our all until we have the desired results. If you aren’t happy with your level of fitness or your physique when you look in the mirror then now is NOT the time for 80/20, but for 100 percent! Work with me, I’ll simplify it for you and we won’t ever speak of math again! 🙂

Wall Street and Main Street definitely know how to push our buttons. It’s no mistake that they use widely accepted standards of beauty to compel us to purchase their products. It’s no mystery that eating a steady stream of fast-casual-packaged foods will cause excess weight gain, lethargy, and maybe even life style related diseases. So, this is just me having had enough! I take a stand every day against poor quality food. Sometimes I even bring a sign and wear my bikini on a busy street to prove it! Eat clean and stay lean! Need help? I’m here for you!
The scale is not your friend. It’s not your enemy but it’s not your friend either. The most accurate read of how you look is in and out of your clothes. I know it’s popular to jump on the scale and measure yourself every day but it’s never the full story. Try choosing a dress, pair of jeans, or a bathing suit to measure your progress or maintenance. This is the true test of where you are and perhaps where you want to be. Especially if you’ve been working hard in the gym, logging extra miles as a runner, or being more consistent in yoga. The mirror doesn’t lie and neither does a loose or tight fitting dress. The scale however only gives you one option and if you associate a number with being fat or thin instead of what your reflection says you may run into trouble. Try it!
What I love about sexy is that it isn’t a size but an attitude, nor a number on a scale but a shape, it’s when you know that you’re doing good things for your body and makes you want to celebrate yourself!
