A lot of people ask me what my secret is to maintaining my weight.... and the honest truth is, there is NO secret, I eat whatever I want!

In order to prevent myself from regaining the 80 lbs I've lost, I just simply don't eat the same way I did when I was overweight. When I was 200 lbs, I ate A LOT of ultra processed sh*t. Now, I mostly eat whole foods, and the treats I do have are made with much better ingredients than what I was buying before. But again, those are "once in awhile" treats, not something that I eat every single day (like I previously would). I don't restrict myself from having anything, but I do practice mindfulness, and I am aware of how certain foods make me feel. As I've made lifestyle changes over the years, I have naturally gravitated towards craving more 'real' food and find it very easy to leave the junk alone.

If you are ready to change your relationship with food and make healthier meals at home, too - like, follow, and share 🫶

What I ate to support my body though my Luteal Phase
🦥🍂🧄🍳

Over the course of about two weeks (12-14 days), Progesteron rises, Estrogen drops, digestion slows down, and the uterine lining thickens. Many women experience PMS symptoms during this time of their cycle, which can include but is not limited to - tender breasts, fatigue, bloating, constipation, acne, and PMDD. All of these things can greatly impact mood and energy levels! That's why it's important to eat foods that support fluctuating hormones, reduce inflammation, and encourage bowel movements.

🗝✨️ Key Nutrients to Prioritize

• B6
• Magnesium
• Calcium
• Omega 3 fatty acids
• Fiber
• Complex Carbs
• Protein
