Why I Hired a Nutrition Coach + Week 1 Meal Plan

Image
Hi, guys! The start of the CNC Spring Nutrition Challenge is just around the corner (Monday, April 9th), and I’m so excited to officially begin my own personal meal plan. If you missed my previous post , I hired one of our lovely DTFN coaches to work with me, so I can partake in a meal plan along with the CNC readers/clients who signed up for the challenge. I wanted to have a “buddy system,” so we all have some extra support and encouragement as we follow our meal plans over the next 8 weeks. Personally, I want results and need the extra accountability. Plus, it’ll be fun to have a group to do it together with! Even if you know what to eat, sometimes you need some direction and motivation to help you achieve your goals. Hell, I run a meal planning business and even I need a little kick in the pants every once in awhile! Hiring a nutrition coach is like hiring a personal trainer. You might know how to exercise (or eat healthy) and what you should do, but you just need someone to ...

Good morning! First things first: THANK YOU so much for all of your wondering comments on yesterday’s blog post . I can’t tell you how much each one of them means to me, especially after starting my morning with some not-so-nice ones. Jeez, some people love tearing others down, huh? Hurt people hurt people . Anyway, let’s not focus on that nonsense right now… So, the other day, I was hanging out with one of my friends when my cell phone rang. It was someone from the Infusion Suite at Mass General Hospital (the contact info is saved in my phone), so I excused myself to answer it. Before each of my infusions, I receive a phone call (from a human) to confirm that I will be there. I also answer a few questions regarding changes in my health. There are a couple of reasons why this phone call is so important and one that I can’t miss: 1) To confirm my chair in the Infusion Suite. It’s a busy place, and if there’s not enough room, the staff has to make special accommodations. 2) To order...

^pretty sure I’ve used that title before It looks beautiful out there, but boy is it cold! Mazen doesn’t seem to mind. Actually those tide pools heated by the sun are warmer than the air! We’ve been having a great time with plenty of sunshine though. Breakfast on Monday was Cheerios with banana and almond butter. MY OTHER RECIPES Followed by a scooter walk with mom and Mazen. The roads here are just perfect for wheels of all kinds! Wish I had some Rollerblades…. We’ve been having simple sandwiches for lunch each day. This one was toasted bread with turkey, havarti, tomato, pickle (the key!), mayo and mustard. We spent the whole afternoon freezing at the beach. There was a cold wind off the water, and we kept adding layers until we gave up. It was still so nice to be out in the salt air! We ended up at the Shoal’s Club pool, which is actually heated, but not quite warm enough for me to want to swim. We took showers and headed up to the Harbor for dinner at Mojos. ...
