Are you missing the foods you love?

By

Diets are notorious for eliminating all of your favorite foods. And what’s worse is going to a party or out to dinner with friends or family and watching them enjoy all of the most delicious food and drink while you’re eating a sad salad with plain chicken breast on top and drinking a glass of lemon water.

Whomp whomp. That way of living is depressing, stressful, and not sustainable. What if I told you there’s a way to have your carrots and cake, too?

Rewind to 2003… and chocolate, nachos, wine, donuts…

When I first started losing weight, I didn’t want to give up my favorite foods, and I knew there had to be a way to incorporate them into my diet while also working toward my goals.

If there’s a will, there’s a way, and I’m so thankful that I discovered macros because I was able to enjoy all the foods I love while also achieving my health goals. I lost about 25 pounds over the course of a year without restricting myself or “dieting.”

Counting macros doesn’t mean that you have to eat rice cakes and salad with dressing on the side. And, if done correctly and confidently, macro counting sets you up for success, not just in 2020, but for the rest of your life.

If you want to find a truly LIVABLE way of eating, consider signing up for my 6-week Macro Motivation Challenge. It’s an affordable way to start tracking macros with the support of a group. You can find additional details about the challenge and register here.

You don’t have be anti-social or deprive yourself anymore. You’ll learn how to navigate “situational eating” and develop confidence in your ability to be consistent with your diet while also LIVING your life.

The pre-sale rate ($159) goes away TOMORROW, so be sure to take advantage and claim your spot now. It’s time to relinquish the old “all-or-nothing” ways of doing things and try something new. Give macros a chance and make 2020 your best year yet!

P.S. The challenge officially starts on Monday, February 3rd, which just happens to be National Carrot Cake Day as well as the day that I published my first post on Carrots ‘N’ Cake!

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

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
