Create Your Balance

So many times we look at our health and weight loss journey and get over whelmed because we look at how far we have to go instead of celebrating how far we’ve actually already come. It is truly all about the mindset and the way you look at it. I have my clients break their goals down because I know that sometimes they can seem like they are hard to reach if we look at them long-term. Every goal you set it ATTAINABLE, you just have to have the right plan and mindset to get there. One thing I’ve stopped doing is focusing on how far I have to go. Instead, I’m praising...

C- Section Awareness Month…And the Scars it Leaves Behind

Create Your Balance

I have to admit, I’ve never been a fan of my C-Section scars. I don’t wear a 2 piece bathing suit unless it has full coverage of my scars and stretch marks. Can you say body image issues? Yep!! They are there BUT they have been there even before I had these scars. Let’s talk about the scars though since it’s awareness month. I’ve been ashamed of them, not what they brought me BUT the looks of them have disgusted me for years…BUT I’m working on letting that go. No one needs to see them because I think they’re ugly and look bad. Is that a me issue? I believe it is. Shit, my...

Well, in this episode, I’m giving you the big update on it all and taking you along for the full journey. As this episode is airing, I will be roughly 4 days post-op from a microdiscectomy on L-5-S1.

Never in my life had I ever felt so much pain. Surgery was...

How Do I Tone My Body?

Create Your Balance

I get asked all the time, How can I tone up my Arms? Abs? Booty? Legs? Well, I’m coming right out and letting you know that the word TONED is right up there with the new word, SNATCHED!! I’m not a fan of either because they are complete marketing words. I’m sure you’re wondering what the heck I am even talking about. I mean they have vidoes and workouts that tell you you can “tone” these parts of your body…BUT do we even know what that really means? Do we know what actually MUST happen in order to have that “ toned “ look? YOU CANNOT SPOT TRAIN a specific...

You Look Great! Have You Lost Weight? Oh Wait…BUT How do you FEEL???

Create Your Balance

Yep, I’m calling it out once again as you all know how I feel about this ‘wonderful” little compliment. I pretty much despise it and I’ll tell you why once again in this podcast. Trust me when I say I’ve heard it enough myself and also heard how it has affected a LOT of my clients with their struggles. YES, I said struggles. Seems we look at that compliment at the surface level but I’m about to take you a bit deeper into how I feel about it and what it says to some of us. Don't get me wrong, compliments are great...BUT, is this the one we want to be throwing around so much? I...

Skinny or Healthy…

Create Your Balance

SO which is it? Healthy or skinny? Can you have one without the other? Do the two come hand in hand? If you look at how society defines it, then you MUST be skinny in order to be healthy and everything else exciting that comes with life. If you know me and follow me, you know my answer is that the 2 do NOT have to come hand in hand. YOU can be healthy AND unhealthy at ANY SIZE!! You can fight me on that but my gloves are off with all things that society promotes as healthy because quite frankly I have to say that about 90% of it is all BULLSHIT! We focus so much on our size and the...

What I Eat In a Day

Create Your Balance

It seems this is a new trend or one that I have been seeing more and more of out on social media…and quite frankly..it grinds my gears. Of course, I will be talking about it in this episode. Does it really matter what I eat in a day or what anyone else eats? What one person eats in a day should not matter to you. Most of these posts and videos I am seeing are not even enough food to sustain a toddler. Social media has so much of an influence on us BUT it’s not always healthy. I am sure sometimes there are some great recipe ideas out there and we can find something to spice up...

More Episodes

It seems that weight loss is impossible for some. We’ve tried everything and nothing seems to be working. I hear this all the time so I’m about to break it down because I think there is so much we do not understand about weight loss because society and the diet world has us confused.

So, WHY do our bodies seem to fight us when it comes to weight loss? Why cant we seem to keep the weight off once it’s gone? Why are the things we used to do to lose weight no longer working? It’s your body fighting back after years of yo-yo dieting.

Did you know that roughly 90% of people who have lost weight will eventually gain it back? Now, that’s not to say that sustainable weight management is impossible. But, understanding how your body responds to weight loss efforts can help you establish realistic expectations on your journey.

So let’s talk about WHY your body is fighting back, shall we?

I’ll be discussing what has happened to our metabolism, why it’s possible it has slowed down, and how to bring it back up to normal speed. The role our hormones play in all of this and how smart our bodies actually are and why it fights back every time we try to lose weight along with tips on how to bring it all into a place where you and your body can work together to reach your goals.
