Did you know YOU can create some of the same magic in your own kitchen and health outcomes? 🪄 ✨When we understand the mechanisms behind why a medication works, we may be able to support the body in the same way with less or without the medication. This is lifestyle medicine.

*** This is not to throw shade on GLP-1 medications or anyone taking them. It’s to offer nutrition education and foundations that often get missed, that everyone should know about when seeking healthy, sustainable weight loss.

INGREDIENTS

2 TBS lemon juice
1/2 cup olive oil
1/2 cup avocado oil
1 egg
1/2 TSP sea salt
2 TSP Dijon mustard

Olive oil is STRONG. If you want more of a neutral taste, play with your ratios of oil favoring avocado oil.

It’s confusing out there! I’m not a recipe influencer but when I learned how easy it was to make my own homemade mayo in culinary school, I’ve never looked back.

—————————————————————

Thanks to accountability and 3rd party testing by UC Davis UC Davis Olive Center — 89% of processed food products sampled were exposed for failing purity testing.

Meaning, the avocado oil they used was cut or replaced with cheap seed oils like soybean, canola, or safflower — even though the label said it was pure avocado oil.

Here are the oils that passed testing:

-Marianne’s (Adam’s Group)
-CalPure (AvoPacific)
-Chosen Foods (bottled cooking oil only)

Here’s who failed testing:

- Chosen Foods mayo and dressings
- Primal Kitchen mayo and dressings
- Sir Kensington's mayo
- BetterBody Foods mayo
- Brianna’s dressing
- Sprouts dressing

How does this happen? These companies source oil from third party brokers AND do not perform their own quality testing (or ignore it because quality oil cost more than crappy oil).

We’ll see if they right the ship.

There is a better way. It’s not always the fastest, but it’s better now and later. I always remind people (lovingly), you didn’t get to where you are overnight. The path forward requires kindness, a little patience, and consistency for many.

Whether you want to lose weight, have consistent energy, a stable mood, better digestion, quality sleep, better workout performance and recovery — you can’t skip meal planning and being consistent with healthy eating (not perfect).

You have to keep going when everyone else quits (when you want to quit).

There is no magic here.

It’s mundane, but that IS where the magic happens.

I consistently meal plan (some weeks better than others) and I make room for healthy “fun foods”. I see my clients successfully meet their goals when they do this too.

In my upcoming class “Beyond GLP-1s: 8 Root Causes of Weight Resistance and what to do next” — we’ll dive much deeper. If you want to do something now, I invite you to consistently start here. You can fine tune later.

Just here to say you can have lentils for breakfast. If you’re after more protein and fiber options, lentils should be your friend.

Eggs, egg whites, big handful of spinach torn and tossed in the pan, Trader Joe’s steamed lentils, topped with fresh tomato, and slice of sourdough with a drizzle of good olive oil. (~27g protein in this meal)

Easy Airfryer Salmon and my favorite brands/ingredients to use. I change the spices and dressing each time but here’s a simple recipe guide.

If you don’t have a meat thermometer, spend $15 and get one. It makes all the difference in juicy tender meat/fish/poultry being cooked properly and not dried out.

For my Richmond, Va folks, the theoliveoiltaproom is in Bon Air and worth a trip for 10/10 olive oil and vinegars 😗👌🏼

365F for 8-9 min depending on thickness of your salmon.
