The fear mongering has to STOP 🙄⁣
⁣
It’s an age old tactic to scare people into thinking they NEED your product. Instagram gives EVERYONE a platform to be whoever they want to be and in a lot of cases, that means spreading unqualified and misappropriate information. ⁣
⁣
It’s our jobs to do our own research to make sure what we’re putting into our bodies is going to help us, not the pockets of someone else.⁣
⁣
For now, I’m going to continue to eat my fruit snacks and drink my K-cup coffee 😂⁣

Thank you @the_plant_slant once again for this 🙌🏻⁣

From being called obese at the age of 12 years old

From being called obese at the age of 12 years old to becoming the healthiest version of myself and a mama🥺

My personal struggles is what started my signature program Mindful Weight Loss Academy.

I was taken to Weight Watchers when I was 12. I was told to go Keto. I was told I was pre-diabetic with non-alcoholic fatty liver diease.

That scare of disease is what led me to make decisions for myself and learn how to listen to my own body. I knew there was a better way and I figured it out.

I took my health into my own hands and started practicing mindful eating. I reached out to a nutrition coach that showed me the ins and outs of ditching restrictive dieting and it changed my life forever. 🫶🏻

I lost 65 lbs and kept it off these last 13 years. I learned how to support my body through my postpartum weight loss journey and have learned how to stay healthy on a daily basis.

…and now I’m here to show you how too.

It’s time you took your health into YOUR own hands. COMMENT “YES” and I will show you exactly how to get started.

I’m nobody special. These results can be yours too👏🏻

Why is my client on Mounjaro AND getting weight loss coaching? ⬇️⁣
⁣
You may think the weight loss drug alone is enough to lose the unwanted weight. So why invest further? ⁣
⁣
When it comes to weight loss drugs, it’s EXTREMELY important to pair the drug with proper nutrition and exercise. It can be difficult to navigate what to eat, how often to eat, ALL while healing your mindset and learning how to reach “food freedom”.⁣
⁣
Your body and your mind play a part in your weight loss journey and that’s where I come in.🫶🏻⁣
⁣
If losing weight AND learning how to keep it off, feel more confident, love yourself from the inside out AND finally ditch fad diets for good sounds like it’s calling your name, COMMENT “ME” and I will DM you how to get started. ⁣
⁣
You deserve it. ❤️⁣

*edit — she’s actually down 24 lbs*👏🏻👏🏻⁣

I preach everything in moderation because I mean i

I preach everything in moderation because I mean it 🙌🏻

I’ve had quite a few people commenting on some of my content about “how could you promote foods with seed oils?” or “soda is bad, how could you allow your clients to drink it?”

I have helped HUNDREDS of women lose weight, get healthier and finally feel CONFIDENT. How did they do it? I taught them moderation.

Eating things you love IN MODERATION is the key to ditching restrictive diets. MODERATION of all foods will NOT kill you.

The next time you’re scrolling and you come across someone preaching an “all-or-nothing” diet, keep scrolling. Not only is that type of diet not sustainable, you’ll feel restricted and unfulfilled.

Keep eating those foods you love. I promise you’ll be okay♥️

The secret to how she lost 37+ lbs and is KEEPING

The secret to how she lost 37+ lbs and is KEEPING IT OFF ⬇️

-Focused on high protein low sugar meals that supported her metabolism

-Swapped saturated fat for healthy fat

-ADDED FIBER to everything

-Used ready-made options (loves her Better oats) to make her life easier

-Focused on eating when she was physically hungry and stopped when she was satisfied

-Scheduled strength training sessions she enjoyed

-Made mindful swaps and enjoyed the foods she wanted in a portion that felt good to her

And SOOOO much more!

Not only did I struggle with my 65 lb weight loss journey, but I realized that there were HUNDREDS of other women just like Maria who struggled just like me.

After successfully losing my weight and without counting a single calorie, I knew I had a mission to help other women do the same.

That’s when Mindful Weight Loss Academy was born.

If you’re struggling day in and day out with maintaining your weight loss, feeling negative towards your body image or feeling straight up unhealthy, it’s TIME that you take back control.

If you’re the woman who’s tried everything, jumped on fad diets, counted calories, and exercised for hours on end just to feel defeated, you’re not alone. Losing weight becomes EASY when you have guidance and community.

Let me show you how I and hundreds of other women have ditched the scale and have lost the weight for GOOD.

Drop a ❤️ below to learn how you can get these results too! We start every Monday!

CGM UPDATE!🤩

If you saw my previous reel, you know that I recently started wearing a CGM to track my blood sugar levels and I CAN’T WAIT to share what I’ve been learning!!

A few things to start:

➖walking after meals works WONDER to bring down blood sugar
➖balancing meals with protein, fiber, healthy fat keeps blood sugar stable for longer
➖lack of sleep, stress and running spike blood sugar (will explain more in part 3)

As a weight loss dietitian, I’m always looking for ways to optimize my body AND my clients. STAY TUNED FOR MORE!

Me THEN vs NOW I thought I was doing all the “r

Me THEN vs NOW

I thought I was doing all the “right” things. ⁣Counting calories, eating only veggies and protein, never missing a workout, only having shakes and bars as meals, doing HOURS of cardio. And I was still stuck in this plateau where my body composition never changed no matter how strict I got.

I was tired, had no muscle tone, and my emotions were all over the place.

Then I invested in my health and everything changed. I started working with a nutrition coach and practicing mindful eating. I made some key changes, tapped back into my internal cues, learned how to properly fuel my body, and I immediately felt like a new person.

Fast forward a few months and my clothes got looser. I started seeing my body composition change as the muscle began to build and I could run faster.

But the best thing that happened when I changed my approach? I got my period back.👏🏻

I LOST weight (and kept it off). I felt SO good in my body. I gave my body what it actually needed…enough to support my metabolism and balance my hormones. Moving my body in ways that burned fat and built muscle.

I learned to love myself and appreciate the way my body looked in the mirror.

It took me years to understand that you don’t have to deprive yourself to lose weight.

Living life with more energy, happiness, and purpose IS possible for you. I’m a better mom, wife, and coach to my clients. And still use my methods today on my own postpartum weight loss journey.

If you’re struggling with the “before” version of yourself like I did, you can still make changes!

A FEW MORE INCLUDE⬇️

✨Make sure you have a balanced snack before going to your event. You’ll be less likely to over do it if your body is already satisfied.

✨Offer to bring a dish. This allows you to make sure there’s always an option that you’ll feel good about eating wherever you go! A veggie tray is a great choice!

✨Have a game plan. Literally talk with yourself and decide how many drinks, snacks, etc you’ll be having at your your social setting. This will help you stay on track and avoid overindulging.

✨Survey the scene. When you arrive at your Labor Day event, take a look at what’s being offered and plan before you dig in what you’ll be having and why. It’s easier to stick to your plan when you know what you’ll be having and how it benefits your body.

✨Eat away from the buffet. Your eyes can be bigger than your stomach. Eat your meal in a space that doesn’t tempt you to get seconds and thirds if you’re already full. That means no standing at the appetizer table and grazing!

✨ Be PRESENT! Remember that you’re there to have FUN! Have conversations, enjoy your time, engage with your friends. Don’t stress so much about what’s on your plate. One meal is not going to make or break your weight loss goals.

You’ve got this!🫶🏻
