~ Sunday ~

Typically, veiwed as the "last" day of the week.

How many times have you justified doing NOTHING because "It's my last day off"
"I'll start on Monday"

Monday comes, and goes and by Wednesday you're already justifying starting your goal AGAIN next Monday.

Yes, the rest is important.

Justifying laziness with "rest" is not giving yourself rest but setting you back further.

So ask yourself, will my future self be thankful for what I do today? EVERYDAY

I used to do the same thing, the justifying, the excuses, the everything.

Sunday is NOW my FIRST day of the week because I know, what I do today, sets up the rest of my week.

Use this day to plan, to ground down, and focus on what your goals are. What your plan is. How YOU want your week to look like.

This doesn't mean you need to overwhelm yourself. Plan some meals, set some goals, make a to-do list, cleanse your house.

Everyone is different. Find what makes YOU feel best and sets YOURSELF up for Success.

Not sure where to start? Leave a comment or send me a message & I'll happily help you get started on the best version on yourself possible!

- The days you DON'T want to - Are the days you NEED to! -
Motivation is great BUT it's not reliable.
Discipline is the foundation for success.
"I don't want to" "I don't have time"
"I didn't feel like it today" "I'm tired"
- That's relying on motivation to move you forward & that's exactly why are you still in the same spot you were in when you said you wanted to change.
- Pick a goal, break it down into steps and complete those steps EVERY SINGLE DAY.
- Don't know where to start? Shoot me a message and I'll help you out!

One of the biggest things for me;

Is finding healthy snacks for the kids.

Today's marketing is top tier with making things look healthy, but indeed are not. Packed with sugar, hidden processed goods, un-needed fake flavors & dyes, a mile long list of words we can't pronounce...
To come across an actual product with true ingredients, we're spending an arm and a leg for snacks that will last a day.

When we're feeding our kids, we are feeding the future genteration.

It is our JOB, our OBLIGATION to nurture them to be the best they can be. Their health should be our PRIORITY not a matter of "CONVENIENCE".

Still pefecting this recipe:

Don't say you don't got time; This took my 7 year old and I, MAYBE 10 minutes to make.

Protein Granola Bars:

Servings: 12
Per Serving:
Calories: 257
Protien: 16g / Carbs: 17g / Fat: 13g

Ingredients:
2 Cups - Gluten Free Oats
1 Cup - 2% Milk (Use almond for dairy free)
2 tbsp - Natural Maple Syrup or Honey
1 Cup - Almond Butter (Swap w/alternative if needed)
4 Scoops - Protien Powder of Choice

Combine wet ingredients in pot over LOW heat.
Add Dry ingredients & mix well.
Pour into baking dish (lined with parchment)
Flatten & let cool (we put it in the freezer for faster results)
When cool pop out out of dish, cut it to bars.
I store them in a container in the fridge to keep them from getting too sticky.

"Easier said than Done" I get it. I'm a parent (which is countless jobs on it's own), I am a daughter, a sister, a fiance, I work multiple jobs not including running a company. I know life might feel hard right now and the world seems to get crazier and crazier. BUT that makes your investment into yourself just that more VITAL. Small steps, tiny habits, grow into HUGE things. Just start! Aim for 3 Daily Wins. THAT'S IT.
~ A physical win
~ A mental win
~ A spiritual win

I get it. It's not easy to balance everything all the time. I am far from perfect. BUT it's not about being "perfect" It's about valuing yourself and your health. If I can find a way, then I know anyone can. You're NOT alone. I am here to help you find that balance!

Consults are FREE. It takes 20mins. What do you have to lose? Msg me and let's start investing into yourself.

Your children shouldn't be an excuse not to exercise.

They should be the reason that you DO.

In Canada alone;
Almost every 2 out of 3 adults & 1 out of 3 Children/Youth are suffering from being overweight/obese.

Be the example for them & show how important it is to prioritize your health & fitness.

Monkey SEE, Monkey DO!

Do it for them! Do it for you!

Shoot me a msg for a FREE consult and see where you can start to make the healthy choices for not only you but your family too!

- How many of us have looked at the bmi chart and been like omg... I'm obese.. or overweight... or had your doctor tell you, you need to loose weight because your bmi is too high? ✋️

- BUT did you know? The Body Mass Idex (BMI) was created to assess the average health of a POPULATION and NOT the health of an individual?

Don't believe me? 👉👉👉 Check out the history of BMI: https:///news/problems-with-BMI

- My BMI states that I am OVERWEIGHT.

- YET my body fat % falls into a fitness category.

- Body Fat Percentage Chart: https:///health/exercise-fitness/ideal-body-fat-percentage

- BMI is garbage! And it truly should stopped being used as a measurement of health of an individual.

- STOP using the scale/BMI to measure your progress.

- STOP basing your worth, your value on the number on the scale or tag of your clothes.

- You are so much more then that!

Here is link of 10 Different Ways to Measure Body Fat %:

https://www.healthline.com/nutrition/ways-to-measure-body-fat

- Not all of these are ideal. I recommend using a fabric tape measure and logging your progress.

- There are so many other ways to measure your progress and health! If you would like to have an assessment done, send me a message and I'll will help show you how we can measure your health & progress to your goals.
