It's that time of the week again.

What is your non-negotiable this week? Drop it in the comments and I'll check in on you 🤍

Could you imagine holding off on 84 days of progress because 7 of those days you won’t be perfect?

If your one-week vacation or your weekend away with the girls will hold you back from getting started, take a peek at the amount of time you’re missing out on progress.

There is always going to be something going on. Mindful Methods fit into your lifestyle and what you have going on with your schedule. We prepare for those weekends away and we make a plan for the week vacation you’ll be on without as much control of your meals.

The reality is, after you finish your program, you’re still not going to have perfect circumstances to maintain your progress either. That’s why we focus on how to do this no matter what you have going on, and that includes maintenance too.

Two 1:1 client spots are left for August. We are filling up quickly and will start a waitlist after that. Comment ALIGN and I’ll send you some details on how to get started on your progress.

this is thirty eight 🤍

Always on my birthday, I take a moment to do a reflection and more importantly set one goal for the year ahead. I don’t really do the whole New Year’s resolution thing but my birthday, I find I tend to look to the future more.

37 - You became the strongest version of me I’ve ever known. We quit bad habits and gained some incredibly deep self awareness. Thank you for all that you did. Your efforts and hard work do not go unnoticed on a daily basis. 💪🏻

38 - We are about to dig deep into our best fitness year yet. Building on the foundations we set up, leaning out to feel confident AF, and trying some new modalities along the way. Cant wait to see what you do 😘

Cheers to another year and thanks for being with me along the way 🥂

Make the plan for your long weekend.
Then put it into action.

Screw it cycles are so easy to fall into when the long weekends are filled with social events, food, and drink.

You're always in control and remember at the end of the day, you are the one that is going to be dealing with the aftermath of overdoing it. I find this to be really important to remember when someone might be pressuring your into the food or drink you don't really want to have or feel bad saying no to.

Let's rock this weekend - what are you sticking to?

MEAL PREP MENU WITH THE MACROS

It’s a clean out the fridge/freezer kind of week before we head on our first road trip.

Here’s what I know about myself: I love to start the day with a higher carb breakfast to accompany my high protein. This has to do also with the fact that I’m a morning workout kind of gal, but I feel more satisfied throughout the day when I do this.

🍳Breakfast : Fried egg sandwich
🥗 Lunch: Taco wraps made with extra lean ground bison
🍎Snacks: Protein shake, Chicken jerky pieces, Cottage cheese taco dip, lots of fruit and veggies

I’m going to be testing out a couple more cottage cheese recipes this week to get rid of what I have left before we head out - any I should try?

MONDAY MEAL PREP MENU WITH THE MACROS

We are all prepped and ready for the week ahead! Here’s what Jim and I are enjoying for our meals this week. I’m taking advantage of summer right now and we are hitting the salads hard.

Salads don’t have to be just for a fat loss phase - they are easily packed with a ton of nutrients and are easy to take on the go with you.

🍳Breakfast : Cottage cheese eggs with a side of peaches
🥗 Lunch: Chicken salad sandwich - love this go to recipe for quick and easy lunches, especially during a cut.
🍎Snacks: Protein shake, RX bar, Fruit, Jerky, Greek yogurt

This is week 1 of 16 of my cut. I’ll be posting weekly menus and updates for you to follow along with.

Making a shift to my training - here’s what it looks like:

I’ve been working primarily at strength training the last couple of years (which is not stopping)

But what I’ve noticed is that my brain does better when I’m up and at it in the morning getting movement in.

So here’s what a typical week will be lookin’ like:
💪🏻 4 days of strength training
🏃‍♀️ 2 tread cardio sessions
🚴🏼‍♀️ 2 bike cardio sessions
💪🏻 1 Bootcamp
🧘🏼‍♀️ 1-2 mobility and yoga sessions

This also includes getting my steps in for the day.

This gives my body time to recover during my mobility and yoga sessions since they will be very low intensity.

I’m excited for these changes which will also require a little bit of discipline in other areas like going to bet earlier, decreasing alcohol, and getting out of bed earlier.

So here’s to more progress 💪🏻

How many days/week do you train?

Weekly reminder to pick your 1-2 non-negotiables for the weekend.

Let’s make it count 💪🏻🤍

28/06/2024

Think about your consistency on weeks when you meal prep vs the ones you don’t.

When you prep, you’ve got a plan.

You’ve put thought into what your week is going to look like.

You’ve taken time to go through your schedule and figure out what’s coming up.

Not to mention when you meal prep, all the benefits listed above.

So how do we make it simple?

• Prep 1-2 proteins
• Prep 2-3 veggies and fruits
• Prep 1-2 carb sources
• Portion your Greek yogurt/cottage cheese ahead of time.

Use the ingredients above as a base for your meals and then build different meals from it OR put it on repeat for the week and switch it up for next.

The less we try to complicate our meals, the easier it is to simplify your meal prep.

These are all things we are going to touch on in Summer Sizzler with our Summer Shine roadmap. Putting the THRIVE framework in place so you can plan your weeks out effortlessly and allocate time to meal prep with ease.

DM or comment SIZZLER and I’ll send you the details. We are starting July 1 for our 6 week group session 💪🏻

Can’t wait to welcome you.
