Living Vibrantly Coaching

Have you ever tried to start a healthy eating plan only to be met with social resistance from your friends?

Have you ever tried to make a dietary change that was important to you, only to find out that your friends and family try to sabotage your efforts?

Have you ever eaten something that you really didn't want to, but felt pressured by a friend or family member to eat it?? Maybe they said they had made it "just for you", or maybe they convinced you to share a side dish that 𝐓𝐇𝐄𝐘 really wanted to try. Or have you ever felt that it would be rude to refuse to eat something knowing that your friend spent hours preparing the meal?

Leave me a 💛 in the comments if this has happened to you before. And know that you are not alone!

Many people feel that their health problems are a result of genetics and / or the natural aging process. And while we do need to manage our health differently as we age, most chronic health conditions are the result of lifestyle choices - like 𝐟𝐨𝐨𝐝!

And yet, when we try to eat better, sometimes we get that pressure from our friends to stop. Does it sound something like this: "one bite isn't going to kill you." or "live a little" or (and this is my favourite) "everything in moderation".

Why does this happen?? Why do our friends / family "pressure" us into making food choices we don't really want to make??

I think it is because they are afraid...

💛Afraid that you are changing, and our friends often want us to stay the same. When you change what you eat, maybe they are afraid that you will change in other ways too.
💛Afraid that you will start to judge them for what they eat.
💛Afraid that you will become more distant from them. People bond over food, but if you aren't eating what they are eating, that can feel uncomfortable for them.

It becomes a balancing act, and more often then naught, we tend to lean on the side of our friends, family and our relationships with them.

It doesn't have to be that way!!

When you work with me, you will learn how to:

💛Make better food choices for better health
💛 Understand your relationships with food, why certain things "call" to you
💛 Deal with the social pressures that our loved ones impose on us
💛 Stay on a healthy eating plan while still maintaining that social connection that we all crave.

I live for the simple "thank you" notes- this made my day!

Are you one of these two types of women, working in high pressure jobs and struggling to lose weight in their 40s and 50s?

Which one are you?

𝐓𝐡𝐞 𝐏𝐞𝐫𝐟𝐞𝐜𝐭𝐢𝐨𝐧𝐢𝐬𝐭
💜Follows a rigorous, calorie-controlled diet with minimal indulgences.
💜Schedules multiple high-intensity exercise sessions each week despite a busy lifestyle.
💜Regards eating and exercising as obligations required to maintain her physique, rather than sources of enjoyment.

That doesn't sound fun!!! Her body is in a constant state of survival mode, with high levels of cortisol and insufficient nutrients. Even if she claims to not feeling stressed, her body certainly is!

𝐓𝐡𝐞 𝐂𝐚𝐫𝐞𝐭𝐚𝐤𝐞𝐫
💜Always puts the needs of others (family, colleagues, friends) before her own.
💜Finds no time in her schedule for cooking healthy meals or engaging in physical activity.
💜Turns to comfort foods and wine as a way to decompress after a long day, making it tough to stop.

That sounds exhausting!! Her body faces high insulin levels and continual exposure to toxins from sugar, alcohol, and processed foods. I like to call her the Overwhelmed and Exhausted Couch Potato, because at the end of the day, that's where she ends up!

Having been that couch potato who had occasional bursts of trying to be a Perfectionist, I finally found a strategy to gaining and maintaining my health that simple and easy. And now, as an Energetic Health Enthusiast, I guide my clients through this lifestyle change in as little as 90 days.

Our weekend morning traditions often included some sticky, sweet "treat", usually cinnamon buns or coffee cake.

In recent years, we've done away with that form of eating, even for a "special" occasion such as a holiday.

But now.... things are different!!

I found a fantastic recipe for Cinnamon buns that didn't have all the sugar and flour - it was a 𝐇𝐔𝐆𝐄 hit!!!

I love it when this happens!

Most bowl recipes have rice or quinoa as the base, but not this one!

I was so happy with this recipe that it got right back on the menu for next week! Well... that might also be because I ate all of it before my husband had a chance to sample, so he's making me make this again! 😆

Want more recipes like this?? Join my next WildFit®️ 90 day challenge and see what I share with my private groups!

This has been a while in the making thanks to the help of some very special people (who know who you are!).

The link is in the comments below.

I am thrilled to announce that I am now a D180 Certified Facilitator through the Diabetes Reversal Institute. This incredible program is designed to help people take control of their health and potentially get off their diabetes medications for good.

Let's take the next step together! 💪✨

The best part about coaching the WildFit®️ 90 day challenge is watching my clients' transitions. They don't always believe that it will work at the beginning, but over the course of the program, some amazing things can happen!

One of the best reasons to join the 𝐖𝐢𝐥𝐝𝐅𝐢𝐭®️ community is the sharing of great recipes!

This one came from my friend and fellow coach, Pamela LaPointe - who is just so creative in the kitchen!

You know how you can buy a head of cabbage for a recipe, but it is 𝐖𝐀𝐘 more than you need 😆 and you never know what to do with the rest?

Here's an idea that is great for breakfast, or as a side to your dinner. Serve like hash browns and top with an egg, or make into made mini sized patties and serve as an appetizer along with a homemade ranch or dill dip.

You may not like vegetables, but your body does!

When you eat good food, your tastebuds change and you discover that you really 𝐃𝐎 enjoy things that you might be surprised at!

I use my crock pot a lot! And I rarely use my Instant Pot - I just never seem to remember that I have it, and quite frankly it scares me! 😂

I love this recipe because it gives me options! The first time I made it, I used my Instant Pot (mainly because I had forgotten to pull the crock pot out in the morning and didn't have a choice! 😜). It turned out beautifully.

This is a great recipe for my WildFit clients for the season of spring because it is full of green vegetables. But you can certainly get creative and add in tomatoes or red onion, or whatever left over vegetables that you have in your fridge!

Will you make this in your crock pot or Instant pot?? Let me know below

Are you ready to get off of the dieting rollercoaster?

I'm happy to chat about the WildFit®️ program and how it can be the 𝐋𝐀𝐒𝐓 program you ever take!

No matter the season, soup is on the menu at our house!

Most times, you can just throw ingredients into a pot and let it simmer for a bit - how easy is that???

And then there is the added bonus of yummy leftovers, which makes packing a lunch for work so easy!

This recipe is great for WildFit Summer and Fall! If you are in Mild Spring, then just remove the carrots!

If you want to make it smoother, just blend the soup with an immersion blender to the consistency you like!

Do you eat soup all year round, like me? Or only in the colder months? Let me know in the comments below👇

When I get messages like this from my clients, it just makes my day. AND it reminds me why I do what I do!

There is always a holiday, or event, or even just a long weekend that is right around the corner.

Are you looking for an adult beverage that you can enjoy at all of these special events, so that you feel like you are part of the group??

Look no further!

This recipe has all the benefits of great taste that the original version has, without the negative effects of too much alcohol or sugar.

Chicken fingers can be a healthy and delicious option for a quick meal or snack, the problem is generally in the breading! To make a healthier version, consider the following recipe - so easy to make and so tasty.

I love Everything Bagel Seasoning - you can make a batch of eat and then add it to so many meals. One of my favourites is to just add it to sliced avocado!

Where will you use this seasoning recipe?
