Top 5 Questions About How I lost 150lbs Naturally
WOW! You lost THAT MUCH!
I bet you exercise for hours and HOURS every day!
Love getting questions about how I lost 150lbs naturally, came off medications, and kept it off for 15 years!!
Here’s the top 5 #weightlossjourney Questions!
What is your favorite food to eat?
BOWLS!! Anything in bowl is my favorite! Taco bowl, Asian beef and broccoli bowl, microwave meal & rotisserie chicken bowl.
I can use the foods I have on hand and toss together a protein + veggie bowl in 5 minutes!
Did you have to eliminate carbs or caffeine to lose your weight?
Def not! I was a die hard Diet Mountain Dew fan then switched to coffee!
Carbs - my ultimate favorite food group. I actually struggle to get fats in, carbs are my bestie!
Is it really hard to go out to eat? I bet you never get to eat fast food.
Eating out ALL THE TIME is never ideal - just like buying a new dress 5x’s a week isn’t ideal <sadly>
Hard? Absolutely not! Just gotta plan for it & budget it into your goals!
Do you regret anything about your journey?
ZERO ZERO ZERO regrets!!! Hands down the absolute best thing I ever did.
It taught me how to value myself, how to grow deeper in my walk with the Lord (as I overcame emotional eating and bad habits.)
It elevated my gift as an encourager, it taught me to be so grateful for learning how to appreciate a journey - delayed gratification that has helped in so many areas of life!
Why did you decide to start your weight loss journey? What was the catalyst?
I felt horrible. Physical and mentally.
Life wasn’t fun - and that’s lame.
Can ANYBODY lose weight like you did?
OHMYGOODNESS, YES!!!!! YES!!!! YES!!!
The only person who says you can’t, is you.
And guess what, that’s the same person who can tell you, YOU CAN!
If you’re overwhelmed with the thought but have the desire let’s chat!
I get you and I got you!

What’s The Best Way to Shake Up My Metabolism?
Whenever you hear someone talk about “confusing” or
“tricking” your body or metabolism, it’s a red flag.
The body doesn’t work that way.
Your metabolism is a complex system that’s constantly working to keep you alive and functioning.
It adapts to things like the food you eat, how much you move, and your overall lifestyle.
But you can’t “shock” or “confuse” it into burning more fat or speeding up.
Those ideas might sound catchy, but they aren’t backed by science.
Real results come from consistent habits like eating a balanced diet, staying active, and taking care of your overall health.
There are no shortcuts or tricks-just steady, long-term changes that actually work!

Why Your Scale Might Be Going Up Despite Eating More Protein
First off, it’s great that you’re focusing on increasing your protein intake—it’s a key component in building muscle, feeling satiated, and supporting overall health.
But let’s talk about why the scale might be creeping up.
Calories Still Matter:
Even though protein is super important, it still contains calories—4 calories per gram.
If you’re eating more protein but not accounting for the additional calories in your daily intake, you might be consuming more calories than your body needs, leading to weight gain.
Muscle vs. Fat:
If you’ve recently started strength training or increased your protein intake, you might be building muscle.
Muscle weighs more than fat BY VOLUME, so it’s possible you’re gaining muscle, which is a good thing!
This might show up as an increase on the scale, but it doesn’t necessarily mean you’re gaining fat.
Water Retention:
Protein helps repair muscles, and when you work out, your body retains water to help with the repair process.
This water retention can cause the scale to go up temporarily. It’s important to track your progress through other methods like how your clothes fit, measurements, and photos rather than just relying on the scale.
Gut Content:
Higher protein diets often come with more fiber or overall food volume.
More food volume means more content in your digestive system at any given time, which can temporarily add weight on the scale.
What to Do:
If you’re seeing the scale go up and it’s concerning you, here are a few steps you can take:
- Track your total calorie intake. Even though you’re prioritizing protein, make sure you’re not overeating in general.
- Monitor your progress with non-scale victories—think measurements, how your clothes fit, or your energy levels.
- Stay consistent. The scale can fluctuate for various reasons; what matters is your long-term trend and how you feel.
The scale is just one metric. Focus on the bigger picture and trust the process!

The Greatest Teacher
The shift to view my weight loss journey as a teacher instead of an accomplishment has allowed me to help so many others.
The shift not only changed my life but also changed the life of those I come in come in contact with.
It taught me to coach with empathy.
To coach with a long term approach.
To really hear people when they say “this week was hard.”
To be crazy ecstatic and celebrate loud when they changed an old habit or pattern.
My journey, was and is, a teacher.
For that I am grateful!
Here’s the biggest 3 ways it can help you.
One - You are capable of change!
I used to eat a whole Applebee’s nacho appetizer as a 10pm dinner, frequently, for years.
Tell yourself EVERYDAY, I am capable of change!
Two - A North Star mentality.
Having a guide, a motto, a phrase is crucial.
You’ll lean into that over & over. Mine was, if you quit now you’ll just have to start again later.
The thought of starting over made me sick...
Three- Support is secret power!
Having a community who cares about you and your goals is a treasure.
They can’t do the work for you, but man, what a help to have people rooting for you.
Fat loss requires the right plan, macros, and guidance. It also requires mindset work.
Being skilled in the art of mindset change is part of the stickiness that makes my clients successful in the beginning, during, and after the process!
Regardless of you’ve got 60lbs to lose or you keep gaining & losing the same 15lbs over and over - these practices apply to everyone.
If you want real change, high touch accountability, and RESULTS - let’s talk!
DM’s are open 💫

The Reason You Raid The Pantry: Tips from someone who lost 150lbs naturally!
We grab the coffee & the banana then hit the road!
It’s easy, it’s quick, it *seems* to get the job done.
Lunch, holding strong with a salad, thinking to yourself
“This is it, today I’m a new woman. I’m really going to do it this time!”
Then what starts with a small snack before dinner turns into a pre-dinner snack, a full dinner, and two trips back to the pantry for a night time snack.
Before you know it your beautiful day doesn’t feel so beautiful anymore.
You vow to start again & keep repeating this cycle.
I get you!
I used to eat a full 2nd lunch before my dinner. 🤦🏻♀️
Here’s what helped me break the cycle for good & lose 150lbs.
1. Eat at least 25-35g of protein for breakfast. This can be a protein shake, overnight protein oatmeal, eggs, egg white omelette, kodiak muffin cup, it can even be mexican chicken and beans if you want!
You wanna start off the day strong!
2. You need to be intentional!
Make a plan for breakfast and lunch.
Quit winging it & hoping for the best.
Intentional doesn’t mean complicated. Don’t confuse the two.
Your plan can be very simple - protein shake for breakfast, sandwich with double protein & quest chips for lunch.
Don’t overcomplicate it!
3. EAT FOOD YOU ENJOY!
Fat loss & becoming stronger shouldn’t be a pain!
If you dread and pout at every meal “I can’t lose weight without extreme restriction” you’re not doing it right.
On my website there’s recipes for high protein taco dip, asian beef and broccoli.
Foods that are actually delicious to eat, that are high in protein & fiber, with 5 ingredients or less!
You really can enjoy life, have fun, and lose fat! Been doing it myself for 15 years & helping others do the same!

Calling All Teachers!
Last week I had a coaching call with a teacher to set up her back to school plan.
When we talked she said, I always have the best intentions but it’s a spiral of bad choices from Day 1 until Labor Day.
Here’s the plan we developed:
1. Bought a mini fridge for her classroom.
2. Park further away from the school for steps.
3. Arrive 15 minutes early to walk the halls for steps.
4. Eat a substantial snack after school dismissal*
5. Taking fruit to munch on during planning periods to help with *bored* eating.
6. Walk the playground the days she has recess duty.
7. Hydration markers. X amount of water by X time of day.
8. Keeping meals at home very simple until Labor Day.
9. Eat breakfast with at least 25g of protein.
10. If treats are brought in she’s going to be mindful and practice balance.
*The snack part was a big light bulb moment.
We talked alot about her hunger and fullness cues - and what would work best. Very excited about this part!
The final thing she said:
“I’ve been teaching for decades, I know exactly what my environment & the first few weeks are going to bring. None of the obstacles will be surprising. The difference this year is now I have tools to navigate them.”
So this tip post has turned into a bragging session on this client, but she’s been preparing for this, working hard at consistency.
Now we won’t have the slide until Labor Day and the “restart of her diet.”
Teachers - if you are in the same boat, good intentions gone wrong.
Use these tips!

Managing Eating Out: The McDonald’s Ice Cream Method*
*if the machine is working…lol
Let’s set up a scenario:
You go out to McDonalds and order a small ice cream cone.
Scenario 1:
A teenager takes your order, it’s at the end of his shift, he’s joking around, having a good time.
Scenario 2:
A manager takes your order, it’s 2pm, he’s all business.
You are likely going to get 2 totally different size cones.
The teenager is going to be more liberal, giving you a much larger serving.
The manager, a smaller, more conservative, serving (he’s invested in the bottom line!)
How does this impact your macros?
When tracking your food, you’re going to enter McDonalds small ice cream cone.
Choosing/guessing if it’s accurate.
In this situation, we really don’t know if the macros are accurate, since someone else is in control of our food & portions.
Let’s say the teenager portion was 200 calories more than the stated nutrition facts.
Not a game breaker - unless you are going out to eat 6 - 8 times a week.
LIV! I don’t eat out that much!
Welllll....what about that daily coffee run? The barista could be heavy handed with the add ins.
Anytime we eat out, we are giving someone else control of our food and our portions. We are guessing, and hoping that it’s accurate.
And if you are focused on fat loss, you are giving someone else control of the outcomes of your goals.
This doesn’t mean you never eat out, this means that you need to create awareness around how much you eat out & how you want to navigate it!
The McDonalds ice cream method is one I teach very early on in coaching. It’s a simple visual with a big impact!
Need help with your goals and feel frustrated?

10 foods to help stay full, satisfied, and fueled in a fat loss phase!
Staying fueled, happy, satisfied, + adherent during fat loss is 🔑
It’s also the key for being a goal crushing machine.
Whe you’re super hungry, every rational thought leaves - your fat loss goals are replaced with “how can I get whatever food is available in my mouth as quickly as possible?!”
This is where volume eating + volume foods come to the rescue!
Volume eating is stretching your macro budget.
Eating a larger quantity of food, while keeping calories low.
Here are my Top Ten Favorites:
1. Cucumbers: Very low in calories and high in water content.
2. Celery: Also low in calories and mostly water, providing a satisfying crunch.
3. Zucchini: Versatile and low in calories, can be spiralized as a pasta substitute.
4. Lettuce: Various types, such as iceberg or romaine, are low in calories and high in volume.
5. Tomatoes: Juicy and low in calories, good for adding bulk to salads and dishes.
6. Bell Peppers: Colorful and low in calories, providing a sweet and crunchy addition to meals.
7. Broccoli: Low in calories and high in fiber, helps with satiety.
8. Cauliflower: Can be used as a rice or potato substitute, low in calories.
9. Watermelon: High water content and low in calories, great for satisfying sweet cravings.
10. Spinach: Nutrient-dense and low in calories, excellent for salads and smoothies.
350 calorie high volume meal ⬇️
Leafy greens, tomatoes, bell peppers, mushrooms, 4oz of chicken, dressing of choice.
350 calorie low volume meal ⬇️
Premier protein shake + apple
The high volume meal is going to keep you fuller for much longer.
When you’re full, you’re happy.
When you’re happy you have energy.
When you have energy you can focus on your goals.
When you focus on your goals, you are more adherent.
When you are adherent, you become a goal crushing machine.
So if you’ve always been focused on eating as little as possible to achieve your goals, and it isn’t working, consider adding more volume to your meals.

What would you do if you KNEW you couldn’t fail?
Would you finally do what you’ve been putting off?
Would you square your shoulders + walk boldly into a new season?
Would you no longer entertain the voices saying I’m too old, too lazy, too far gone, it could never be me.
Focusing on the “what if” of failure isn’t serving you.
It’s time to turn those ‘what ifs’ into ‘what’s next!’
