Quinn and Mumma Night In

By

Hi, friends! I hope you’re enjoying the weekend!

Friday morning kicked off with THE BEST update from one of my previous nutrition clients. We worked together back in September and have kept in touch ever since. Guys, check out her progress pictures below. She has totally changed her body over the course of 6 months, AND she was only “loosely” tracking macros since the new year. Incredible, right?! Macros don’t work overnight, but they WORK! Speaking of which, if you’re interested in signing up for one-on-one nutrition coaching, our next group starts April 1st!

Mid-morning, Quinn and I headed to Goldfish for his weekly swim lesson. His favorite instructor was back, so he was all smiles and quite silly in the pool! 🙂 If you’re a local reader and interested in checking out Goldfish, head over to my Instagram feed to enter to win 1 of 12 FREE lessons at the Rockland, Braintree, or Norwood locations!

After swim class, we headed to CAVA for lunch. I actually used the app to place my order, and I’m pretty sure I’ll never wait in line again. It was SO EASY, and I loved seeing all of the different add-ons. I sometimes feel kind of rushed when I’m ordering at CAVA because it’s always so busy (and I don’t want to hold up the line), but I actually took my time and discovered some new ingredients to try! Plus, you can see the calorie total of your order instead of totally guessing like I normally do!

After lunch, we did a little “quiet time” at home. Quinn fell asleep in the car on the way home from CAVA, but insisted he wasn’t tired. I thought maybe he’d snooze on the couch during quiet time, but he wasn’t interested. We ended up swinging by the library to return some books and play on the kids’ computer instead.

I also picked up a book that I had placed on hold. I’m only a few chapters into the Brain Body Diet, but I’m obsessed. It’s like all of the information that I’ve researched on my own recently (related to hormones, liver health, mind-body connection) all in one place! I’m definitely a fan of this book!

After the library, we headed home and got settled in for the night. On the agenda: Experiments with magnets, dinner, and then the Muppets Most Wanted and Quinn “cheesy” popcorn, which is easily the best cheese popcorn on the market.

We actually put it on Amazon subscription because we love it so much!

And our evening concluded with quiet the puzzle party!

Post-Workout Coffee Protein Shake

Once again, I’ve partnered with Brother  to show the versatility of the  Brother P-touch Label Maker , especially when it comes to fitness and gym equipment.  As always, thank you for supporting CNC! I receive quite a few questions from readers about what I eat before, during, and after workouts, so I decide to share those with you today. It changes a little bit from workout-to-workout, but I keep a general framework in mind. BEFORE (approximately 30 minutes): I typically eat a small snack made up of mostly simple carbs since they provide quick energy. Some favorites: Half of a banana or another piece of whole fruit, a protein bar, handful of raisins, or a rice cake with jam and sometimes nut butter (it just depends how hungry I am and the timing of my workout). DURING : I typically don’t consume anything during my workouts, unless they’re longer than 90 minutes, like if I’m training for a long distance race (i.e. half marathon). In that case, I’ll take an energy gel and water ev

Evernote Review: Your Digital Organization Hub

If you’re looking for a one-stop shop to organize your digital life, check out Evernote! Here’s my Evernote review and all the great features you can use to make your thoughts, notes, and files easy to find, sort, and save.  This post is sponsored by Evernote .  Raise your hand if your digital life feels cluttered. If we were in a room, almost everyone’s hand would go up, including mine!  With so much of our lives digitized these days, it’s hard not to get overwhelmed with all the information we need to save and reference. And because computers, the internet, and living in email and calendars are relatively new to humans, we as a society are still learning good systems. If I asked you to organize a paper filing cabinet, you’d probably have a few good ideas on how to do that. But if I asked you to organize a computer hard drive, many of us get stumped on the sheer volume of files and the endless ways to sort.  The good news is there are apps that make this process more intuitiv
