If you have a sustainable fat loss goal, N.E.A.T. needs to be a part of your physical activity approach as it has the power to be MORE powerful in producing results than exercise alone. In today’s show you’ll learn what N.E.A.T. is, how you can incorporate it into your already busy life, and why making it a habit is the best way to create fat loss that lasts.

Let’s talk about Sports Nutrition! Because fueling for optimum results and performance is not reserved for elite athletes. You too can change the results you get from your workouts by changing what/how you eat!

In a recent poll 40% of you said that you weren’t getting the results that you wanted from your workouts. And as far as I’m concerned, that’s not OK! So in today’s podcast episode we’re talking all about how much, what, and when to eat, both before and after your workouts, in order to adequately fuel for and recover from your sweat sessions.

If you’re putting in the effort to exercise, and you aren’t seeing results, nutrition might be the limiting variable. Don’t miss today’s podcast episode where I tell you what to eat pre- and post- workout in order to get the biggest bang for your time and energy buck!

Something I often hear from my clients is that it’s challenging to juggle personal goals when trying to cook for - and care for - the whole family. How do you navigate a spouse who maybe isn’t supportive initially? What do dinners look like when your kids are picky eaters and your husband only eats pasta while you’re trying to reach your sustainable fat loss goal?

I recently had the pleasure of interviewing fellow Nutrition Coach, Dezi Abeyta, to talk all about this. Dezi is a rockstar Nutrition Coach who works with men who have given everything to their careers and their families, who are ready to start investing back into themselves in order to be more successful and more present in their home lives.

In today’s podcast episode we’re diving deep into how you can help encourage your whole family - partners, spouses, and kids too - to join you on your journey to healthy eating. Because everything gets easier when it’s a team effort!

You cut calories, lost weight, but now you’re stuck. You’re still watching what you eat and exercising but...nothing. The scale just won’t budge. If anything, it’s going in the WRONG direction. But what’s a girl to do? Eat even LESS!?

If you can relate to this, 1:1 Nutrition Coaching client, Megan, knows exactly how you feel. Megan lost over 100# by cutting calories and moving more, and it was great, until everything just stopped working. Her doctor didn’t know how to help her, she knew taking her calories even lower wasn’t the answer, but she didn’t know where to turn.

Enter REVERSE DIETING. The diet after the diet where the goal is to eat more and move less so that you can work your calories and your metabolism back up to maintenance. In today’s podcast episode Megan is sharing her story - how aggressive dieting became a detriment to her progress and what she’s doing about it in order to continue progressing toward her big powerful weight loss goal!

Have you ever cut your calories and started working out in an attempt to lose weight only for the scale to go absolutely nowhere!? It's frustrating right?

I see this with a lot of the women I work with. They come to me eating very little because they know that they have to be in a caloric deficit to lose weight, but it’s not working!

So what do I tell them to do? Eat more.

I know what you’re thinking…, “you’re telling me that I need to eat more food in order to weigh less?” YES. Exactly. And I’m telling you why (and how to create the progress you’re looking for) in today’s podcast episode. Don’t miss it!

Have you ever tried to lose weight, only to end up right back where you started? Dropped a few dress sizes only to gain them all back? Sure! Many of us have. I saw this happen so often early on in my career that I dedicated my education, and ultimately my life's work, to understand true, lasting behavior change and how to help my clients achieve it. Do you want to know what the missing component is? The reason why so many weight loss programs, diets, and quick fixes fail over and over again? MINDSET. None of these approaches address the fact that in order to change your physiology (your external features) you have to address your psychology (your internal processes). If you want to create true, lasting change you can't ignore your mindset. Tune in to this weeks interview episode to hear more about how Liz, one of my 1:1 Nutrition Coaching rockstars changed her physiology in amazing ways by first addressing her psychology!
