I get asked questions daily about nutrition.
I will be upfront and honest, I am NOT a certified nutritionist. I do not have ANY degree in health sciences whatsoever. I simply know how to fuel my body for success.
For me, nutrition was a game killer. I could workout non-stop all day, every day, but not see a single end result of all my hard work. I would workout, come home, and stuff my face full of food I didn't give a single thought about. I was a binge drinker and was known for eating a whole bag of Hot Fries in one sitting (nothing to be proud of). All this added up to a lot of negativity about my health and fitness and kicked my anxiety into high gear.
I let my beautiful friend, and now coach, Jayma, talk me into Beachbody. I was convinced the only way I could be healthy was to eat chicken and broccoli all day. Like I said, I knew NOTHING about nutrition. I didn't understand portion control or how to use carbs and fats to my advantage.
Today, I eat nonstop still...but I am NOURISHING my body with all the yummy and healthy vitamins and nutrients it needs. I eat balanced meals and I don't gorge myself anymore or go back for 2nds...and 3rds...and if its pasta....4ths (no shame!).
My days consists of:
Shakeo with fruit for breakfast
Greek yogurt as a snack
Protein veggies and carbs for lunch
Another delicious protein snack
and protein, veggies, and carbs for dinner.
And OF COURSE, I still workout out for 30 minutes a day instead of HOURS at the gym. I love the life I live now and all I want to do is share that love with each and every one of you.
