So thankful for my Internet friend crushes that turn into work besties 🖤

Food used to be so frustrating for me 😞
Before I knew any better I’d track my food with a popular tracking app... which told me I wasn’t eating enough 🤔 but that everything I was eating was carbohydrates 🍞 and people told me carbs make me fat 😑 so I’d eat less and less and feel more frustrated and not see any change or feel any better about myself 🤬 which ultimately led to giving up a week into “clean eating” and binge eating junk.
And when I asked my doctor about healthy eating {disclaimer I actually do love my doctor}, her advice was to cut my meat consumption down. Which told me what? Eat even L E S S 😖 So no carbs... and no meat? What was I supposed to be eating?! I felt so hopeless and hungry any time I came around to considering a healthier lifestyle.
Those apps, my doctors, teachers, Pinterest graphics, thinspo tumblr accounts — they didn’t actually T E A C H me anything about well balanced, healthful eating. Nor did they teach me to love and accept myself the way I was and to celebrate my victories.
When I first signed up to do a home fitness and nutrition program, I wasn’t even going to do the nutrition part 😅 because I felt defeated before I even started. The containers we use looked small, and clean eating never worked in my favor in the past... but I decided to try it out for a few days.
Let me tell you, the nutrition plan I started with two and a half years ago and those silly little containers taught me more about balance, food and about myself in THREE DAYS than I had ever leaned in my life 😍
Choosing to give it a shot is the best thing I ever did in shifting my approach to health and self love! ✨ And I would’ve paid triple what I paid for that kind of confidence and control when it came to food.
I have five more openings for my balanced eating and beginner fitness program starting on May 27th and if you’ve been FRUSTRATED and GIVEN UP on yourself and clean eating in the past, I strongly encourage you jump in with us and see how simple and satisfying it can be 🙌🏼🖤
