MyFitnessPal Drove Me to Hanger and Obsession

MyFitnessPal is one of the most popular methods of tracking calories and macros. In fact, as of the writing of this article, there were more than 140 million people using it. And I hate it with every fiber of my being. Don’t get me wrong. I think tracking your food is very important when you have goals you’d like to […]

21 Day Fix Vegan Recipes

Veganism is one of the trendiest dietary habits right now. I totally get the appeal. Manufacturers tend to treat animals raised for meat, dairy, and eggs very poorly. There is even a popular Netflix documentary called Game Changers that’s caused a huge surge in interest for vegan recipes (and it’s full of fallacies and half-truths and the producers should be […]

Barre Blend Meal Plan

What does a Barre Blend meal plan look like? Honestly, it looks like all my other meal plans! We are given the resources to follow the nutrition plan of our choosing no matter which program we’re doing. You just adjust how much you’re eating not what you’re eating. For a program like LIIFT4, it’s important to “load,” or eat in […]

New Year’s Eve Snack Recipes

New Year’s Eve Snack Recipes is one of the most Googled-phrases at the end of the year. We LOVE our snacks, and will use any excuse to make some yummy apps that may or may not be good for us. Okay… usually they AREN’T, but they CAN BE! Behold: a list of New Year’s Eve snack recipes that are easy […]

21 Day Fix Gluten-Free and Dairy-Free Recipes

Most of the meal plans I post include foods with gluten and dairy in them because my family loves them. No shame! But I know there is a growing number of people who just plain can’t have them, and I wanted to provide some options for them, as well. This journey isn’t just about ME. It’s about all of YOU […]

Weekly Meal Plan: November 12 – 18

I’ve had it on my agenda to publish this weekly meal plan: November 12 – 18 since last. Better late than never, right?? When you’re 33 weeks pregnant, you have to pick your battles. 🙂 Even this far into my pregnancy, I’m still following the portion container system…for the most part. I’m sure I could have been more loyal, but […]

Weekly Meal Plan: October 15 – October 21

I’m really enjoying the freedom of floating from program to program during the last few months of this pregnancy, and how easy it is to create one meal plan that works for them all. It’s like a Choose Your Own Adventure but with workouts! This flexibility is one of the best parts of Beachbody On Demand. I’m never stuck. Every […]

Weekly Meal Plan: October 1 – October 7

Rather than make this program-specific, I wanted to leave it open-ended for people following the portion fix system. These options will work for people following the 21 Day Fix, 80 Day Obsession, and LIIFT4 meal plan. Huzzah! Later this month, I’ll be featuring healthier options for Halloween treats. If you have a family favorite you’d like to see me cover, […]

LIIFT4 Meal Plan: Week 8 PLUS Labor Day Recipes!

The final week is upon us, and I am so excited to see everyone’s results! I’ll post a recap next week including tips on modifying the workouts for my fellow pregnant fitness folk. I threw together the LIIFT4 meal plan for week 8 kind of quickly because this week has been a struggle. Nevertheless, it’s one of my favorites because […]

LIIFT4 Meal Plan: Week 5

The LIIFT4 meal plan for week 5 is a little different than the previous meal plans. I didn’t include the flavor of shake I’d be drinking or my snack choice. I was feeling a little too hindered by doing that, so I planned out the main meals, and leaving the rest up to my whims each day. That may not work for […]
