Afternoon Snack Attack

March 11, 2013 in , , , /by

The afternoon snack attack! If you crave sweets, this is in your wheelhouse! Both have lots of nutritional value and have relatively low sugar compared to the unfilling empty calories you might be TEMPTED to reach for. LEFT SIDE: 1 cup nonfat plain Greek yogurt (fage brand) sweetened with “Stevia in the Raw” (all natural […]

Eat What Your Body Needs

March 10, 2013 in , , /by

Eat what your body NEEDS vs what you simply want 80-90% of the time. Depending on your goals. What percent do you think you achieve now? To some just starting out, 90% clean eating will feel like deprivation because you haven’t acquired the taste for cleaner, less processed foods yet, you haven’t broken some habits yet, […]

Do you use pushup stands?

March 10, 2013 in , /by

Do you do decline pushups with pushup stands? Great for upper body and core strength! You can put your feet up on anything and you don’t have to have pushup stands…they’re still tough! When I think I’ve done the LAST REP I have in me, I dig deep for 4 more and fight to keep my […]

You aren’t skipping meals, are you?

February 26, 2013 in , /by

You’re not skipping breakfast or ANY meals are you?? I know it can be frustrating when you want results FAST and it’s tempting to just deprive yourself, but long-term that will backfire into faster weight gain and a slower fat-burning metabolism. Eat a rainbow (skittles & Fruit Loops don’t count..lol). This is egg whites (5 servings […]

Pre-work out food

February 26, 2013 in , , /by

Doesn’t this look good? My pre-workout snack today: Ezekiel toast with a half banana sliced.. No butter of course. This was 120 calories and pretty low on the glycemic index (which means you will burn more fat in your workout). Shakeoloy is also low on the glycemic index unless you’re adding high glycemic index ingredients. […]
