This weekend my pastor hit a keyword in his sermon. He said, “In order for you to make change in an area, there has to be a *trade-off*. Something has to go in order for something new to come in.” So often I see it the other way around. We want change, but we are […]
Hello 2015! Time for a new season!
Life has a really interesting way of coming about. From 2004-2007, we got our start in Real Estate and I filled the role as General Contractor building and designing these three custom homes in Fishers, IN. As a mother of two, that season was one of the highlights of my life and I was living […]
Fit Gal’s “Fit Link Friday”: 11.14.14
On periodic Fridays I’ll be making a post with a collection of must-read links that I’ve found. I LOVE to learn and research and when I see an article come my way, I usually can’t stop to read it right then, so I accumulate them in a list and read them later in a […]
Fit Gal’s “Zero Weight Gain Holiday Challenge”!
I saw this concept at my gym and it’s a great idea! I’d like to promote zero weight gain at the holidays and I can come alongside you on this journey! It’s simple: you’ll use your systems, tell me your goals, and then weigh in weekly to me now through the end of 2014. I’ll […]
Marketing Hurts; Reading Labels Helps!
This truly upsets me. I’m going to go out on a limb and put the state of American wellness in partial blame of marketing. No one made someone eat what they do, but some packaging certainly has not helped us. The label says “Sugar free”. The ingredients say: water, corn syrup, vegetable oil, partially hydrogenated […]
Can’t be active? Be fit in the kitchen!
There have been times where I cannot get to the gym or be active: a medical procedure, an injury, a sick child, or a schedule that fills with my family’s events. It’s easy to say, “Well, there goes that plan,” and just throw in the towel with the nutrition as well. But wait! Reset the […]
You eat cake?
I went to a birthday party last night and had a few plates of good eats. Then I got a sweet tooth and inquired about the cake. It’s a birthday party. There’s gotta be cake, right? Someone there said, “You eat cake?” I then realized I have sent mixed messages and have a lot more […]
Struggle with sugar cravings?
Struggle with sugar cravings? I often get a sweet tooth in the late afternoon or evening and this is my go-to snack: Ezekiel bread, 1T almond butter and 1T of strawberry jam. It offers a great carb-fat-protein balance for my goals, has lower sugar levels, and satisfies my sweets craving. When I eat white sugar, […]
America’s Stats. Mixed Emotions.
I read these stats in my Nutrition Coaching studies and I’m full of mixed emotion. I’m honored to be a part of the wellness industry, but big picture sets in and I think “How do we tackle this?” Then I realize the answer. You live outloud. You use your hardships and learning blocks to help others. […]
Eating? Hold the liquids!
When I come across new finds in my Nutrition Coaching studies, and they have a great impact on me, I want to share them with others. How much liquid do you drink with your meals? I used to down a ton of tea or water with my meals, BUT now I’ve learned that too much […]
