If you want results this year I’m here to help. For those who asked here’s some great information on nutrition I wanted to share I read to help achieve your goals.
Are you logging in your training sessions and still not seeing the results you’re after? Is it taking longer than you expected, or are you barely making any progress? There are many reasons why you aren’t where you’d want to be. And with all of the fast, incredible transformations we see online, it’s understandable that we crave our own, too. That’s why I’m here to help. Let’s troubleshoot why you’re stalling, and what can be done to get you further to your goals!
Nutrition
Let’s start with your diet. Everyone can do the same workout, but not everyone is guaranteed the same results if their nutrition isn’t taken as seriously as their training. Plant-based, keto, low-carb, high-carb, paleo, vegetarian- it doesn’t matter what you choose so long as you fuel yourself correctly. If you’re vegan, pay attention to where you get your food. Is it nothing but processed junk like mock meats, cookies, and dairy-free cheese? For my keto folks, you’re not off the hook, either. You could be overeating foods like nuts, mayo, and cream cheese, which are all high in calories. While I don’t count calories, I manage them through portion control and my FM (free meal) and WEM (workout earned meal) approach. Both have worked well over six years for me. I’m lean, energized, and strong for both my daily workouts and activities.
A common problem I’ve seen is the “rewards” people give themselves in the form of food. If they’ve been crushing it hard in their workouts, they start treating things like cake, pasta, and ice cream as “rewards.” That’s not the way you should view your food- you’re not a dog! Not only that, but it sets up a horrible relationship with food. Many times, an eating disorder will develop from the binging and treats that are “earned” from intense exercise. The overeating and overtreating system can quickly be abused. Before you know it, you’re eating more calories than you burned (no matter how hard you trained), feeling miserable mentally, and losing a healthy relationship with your food.
Solutions:
· Start seeing your food as fuel. Nutrients in the form of vitamins, minerals, antioxidants, protein, carbs, fiber, and fat all affect body composition. Because everything from burning fat to building muscle requires proper nutrition. And if you want to slow down aging, have healthy hair and skin, and prevent disease, you’re going to have to make your diet a priority, not an afterthought.
· With your favorite treats, look at them as they are. Treats. And not something to be eaten all the time. Save them for non-exercise-related occasions. It could be your birthday, the holidays (Thanksgiving), family reunions, or an anniversary. Not only will it taste even better, but you’ll also have a special reason to enjoy it (which helps, especially when you’re with other people and not by yourself).
Before foods became packaged with paragraphs of fake, processed ingredients, they showed up as is. An apple is an apple. Eggs are eggs. Almonds are almonds. (You get the idea.) If you need help learning how to enjoy healthy foods (which are what a real diet is made of), check out this post here. Otherwise, skip the boxed, pre-made meals, snacks, and drinks and go for whole foods found in nature.
Only a similar note, beware of imposter foods. Even though a food label claims to be “gluten-free,” “low sugar,” “keto-friendly,” “vegan approved,” it doesn’t always mean it’s good for you. A vegan cake is still cake. Microwaveable keto pizza is still pizza. A lot of these products contain hidden ingredients that go against their claims! Vegan cheese substitutes are notorious for containing casein, which is a derivative of dairy milk. Low-carb fruit juices add either sucralose or maltodextrin, which are processed forms of sugar. And in high amounts, they alter your microbiome (aka, the gut), causing bad bacteria to manipulate your cravings and make you overeat sugar. Other research shows they contribute to dysbiosis (gut imbalances) and inflammation in the intestines. You can’t judge a book (or label) by its cover. If you read the ingredients, you’ll see they’re anything but real food. [1] [2] [3]
Track your food intake. While I don’t recommend counting calories and micromanaging your diet down to the last bite, I do suggest you use a food journal for a short time. This helps to give you an idea of portion sizes, any habits or slipups you have, and just how much you’re truly consuming. A lot of people underestimate their daily intake, thinking they’re eating healthy or following the right diet. While that may be true, you can still overeat even the healthiest of foods. Roasted macadamias are a delicious treat. But if you’re not too careful, you could quickly eat an entire bag, which is why a journal creates awareness for beginners and helps them to improve their eating habits.
Notice that I didn’t recommend any specific diet here. There’s a lot of noise out there over which diet is best for everyone when the truth is that no such one exists. I’ll always share what works for me, but I do understand that we all respond differently to diets. I know some people rock keto but admit that not everyone can (or should) do it. Going high carb and plant-based wasn’t right for me, but don’t let that keep you from trying it or seeing how it works for you. This is what’s known as bio-individuality, meaning that no two people are exactly the same and that there is no one size fits all diet out there. However, don’t let that keep you from eating real food. Or from the habits that keep you from eating the wrong type of food for your body.

So welcome I hope it helps. I do not prefer diets either
Thank you for the nutritional information Rhyanna. I have never been on a diet, but prefer to just eat what I will always be able to eat without gaining too much weight. Lovely side crunches. Most sophisticated looking yogi on the internet.
