Irrational Body Expectations!

Apr 25, 2019

As I get older, I have learned to love my body. I try to accept the things about it that I once hated! Yes, I also hated many parts of my body.  My whole life I grew up thinking my booty was too big, and I had too much cellulite.  I could never find a pair of jeans to fit me because my waistline is super small, but my booty and thighs are not! I literally went through high school covering my back side at all times! And yet, I look back and can’t believe how small that booty truly was!

Today, as I coach hundreds of clients to help them lose weight and/or get in the best shape of their lives, I realize that what is troubling most people is BODY EXPECTATIONS! Instead of focusing on the healthy body that we are blessed with,...

10 Questions to Health?

Apr 25, 2019

I studied Chinese Medicine for 4 years (Masters in Science/ Eastern Medicine) and can apply almost everything I learned to all aspects of health!  There is something we used in diagnosing all patients called the 10 Questions.   I still use it today for my weight loss clients to see where they are at in terms of overall health.  As I review each question below, answer on your own to see if you have any imbalances!

  1. Sleep: How is your sleep? Do you get 8 hours/night?  Did you know if you are not getting at least 8 hours of sleep/night you are likely hindering weight loss?  You secrete hormones at night while sleeping that are necessary to lose weight.
  2. Sweat: Do you have any unusual...

Apr 25, 2019

Spring break is around the corner and then it will be summer season! Perhaps you have road trips planned or vacations around the world? Well, no matter where you are headed here are some tips to keep your waistline in check so you don’t come home 5 pounds heavier and feeling unhealthy!

PRE-TRIP-PREP:

Before the trip begins, you need to PREPARE for the PRE-TRIP! Is this a road trip or are you getting on a plane? Either way, I want you to prep your travel day meal and snacks!

  • Travel Day Meal(s): Make some sandwiches! These are generally the easiest thing to pack. If you are getting on an airplane and might not have access to a cooler, the peanut butter and jelly sandwich is generally my GO-TO travel meal. If you are on the road...

Accountable To You!

Apr 25, 2019

As many people know, I run an online nutrition/fitness company called Earn That Body! I coach people (online) all over the world. Probably one of the most fundamental aspects of my program that leads to the incredible results my clients get is the ACCOUNTABILITY! I read my clients food logs daily (Mon-Fri) and then check their weekend food logs on Mondays. That means I am having daily conversations with them about what they are eating and if they got their workout done! Can you imagine how that might hold you IN CHECK with what you eat to help you reach your weight loss goals? I have clients that tell me they 100% stay on track because they know I will be commenting each morning on their food log.

Accountability really does...

Is Your Child's After School Sport Making You Fat?

Apr 25, 2019

I honestly hate to use that word “fat” in the title of this blog, but sadly, I do think many people are putting on FAT due to their kids after school commitments! I am starting to see this pattern with far too many friends and clients; tell me if this sounds familiar to you:

Your child has baseball at 5pm.  So, you pick him/her up at school, rush home to give them a snack and let them start some homework. Before you know it, it is time to get dressed for their sport. You hurry over to the baseball field and then sit for hours while they play.  After practice, it’s 6:30-7pm and now everyone Is starving and cranky! You think of the fastest and closest food you can grab, and you once again, RUSH there to eat...

Are Fitness Challenges Killing Your Body?

Apr 24, 2019

Okay people, I’m just going to come out and say it…. WHAT IS UP WITH ALL THESE FITNESS CHALLENGES? Who created them? What was the intent? What is the goal? And how about WHAT IS THE END RESULT?     

In case you don’t know what I’m talking about, perhaps you were invited to do a Pushup Challenge last year to help fundraise for a charity. I have no problem with fundraising, but why would you ask people to do a zillion push-ups every day for 30 days? Did the person who created this fundraiser have any background in fitness? Because if they did, I’m sure they would see that doing any strength training move day after day after day (for 30 days) could really lead to injury.  Not to...
