Let’s talk about one of the most misunderstood (and underrated) foods in the Metabolic Balance® program — 100% sourdough rye bread. 🌾

Somewhere along the way, we were all brainwashed to believe that bread is the enemy — that it slows metabolism or instantly turns to fat. But the truth is, it’s not bread that’s the problem… it’s the kind of bread we’re eating (and the amount!).

Real, 100% sourdough rye bread is a completely different story. It’s naturally fermented, easier to digest, supports a healthy gut, and helps balance blood sugar — all key factors in sustainable weight loss.

Here’s why I love it:
✅ Keeps you full longer – the fiber helps curb snacking and stabilize energy.
✅ Supports gut health – fermentation creates beneficial bacteria that improve digestion.
✅ Balances blood sugar – slow-digesting carbs help prevent cravings and crashes.
✅ Boosts fat metabolism – stable blood sugar helps your body burn fat more efficiently.

Just a heads up — most “rye” breads in grocery stores are actually made with wheat flour and only a touch of rye. So if you’re following Metabolic Balance®, make sure it’s 100% rye and sourdough fermented.

Simple, real food — the way your body was designed to eat. 💛

If you’re like most of my clients, you’ve been told a million times to “count your calories” to lose weight.

But how do you know how many calories your body actually needs?

Because every body is different, we start with your BMR—Basal Metabolic Rate. That’s how many calories your body needs for basic functions at rest.

BMR is influenced by:
✔️ Body size
✔️ Muscle mass
✔️ Hormones
✔️ Age

That’s why I calculate your BMR in-office with my Bio Impedance machine—so we know exactly how much fuel your body really needs.

Next comes TDEE (Total Daily Energy Expenditure): your true daily calorie burn including activity.

Example (BMR = 1600):
▫️ Little/no exercise: 1600 x 1.2 = 1920
▫️ Light exercise: 1600 x 1.375 = 2200
▫️ Moderate: 1600 x 1.55 = 2480
▫️ Intense: 1600 x 1.725 = 2760
This takes the guesswork out of knowing your needs.

But here’s the truth: it doesn’t have to be that complicated—and you don’t need to track every morsel with an app.

With my Metabolic Balance program you don’t need calorie counting to lose weight:
❌ No apps
❌ No barcode scanning
✅ Just whole, real food based on YOUR blood values

This program resets your metabolism from the inside out, balancing hormones, enzymes, and inflammation—while promoting natural weight loss.

✨ A little calorie awareness still helps when:
✔️ Enjoying a treat meal
✔️ Maintaining results
✔️ Wanting to stop guessing & feel in control

Here’s what I want you to remember:
➡️ You can lose weight without counting.
➡️ Calorie awareness is just a tool.
➡️ With the right guidance, you’ll never need to diet again.

78 years old. Atrial fibrillation, high blood pressure, tendonitis in both shoulders… and feeling stuck.

That was Juliette’s reality before starting Metabolic Balance with me.

She told me:
“I could see myself gaining weight and no way to stop it. I was walking 10,000 steps a day, doing yoga, even Zumba — when my heart allowed it — but my shoulders were so bad I could hardly lift my arms.”

Then she made the leap.

Now?
✨ Down 15 lbs
✨ Shoulder pain almost completely gone
✨ Sleeping better
✨ No longer needs her second BP medication
✨ And — in her own words — “I’m 78 years old and have the energy of a 20-year-old!”

Juliette says:
“This diet literally gave me back the life I’d always enjoyed prior to my health issues. This is the best thing I ever did for myself.”

She even pushed a wheelbarrow full of soil recently — something she never could’ve done before due to shoulder pain. 🙌

We’re continuing our coaching virtually now, and even through a knee injury setback, she’s still staying positive and seeing results.

Her story gave me goosebumps.

Being out of your regular routine doesn’t mean you can’t stay on track. Here are my "8 Rules" to eating out while travelling:

1. Stick to the 5-hour rule
Keeping the proper spacing between meals is one of the most effective things you can do to support your metabolism-even when the meal itself isn’t perfect.

2. Bring a light breakfast, if possible
Some clients pack simple hotel room breakfasts like plain yogurt and a piece of fruit. If eggs aren’t part of your usual
breakfast plan but you’re eating out, they’re still a far better option than pancakes, toast, or pastries.

3. Think substitutions, not perfection
Focus on food categories: protein, vegetables, fruit and portion control. If something from your exact food list isn’t available, go for the closest match from the same group.

4. Choose whole foods when eating out
Go for grilled or baked proteins and steamed or roasted vegetables. Ask for sauces on the side or skip them, and use oil and vinegar for dressing.

You can also substitute your bread portion at lunch or dinner with a small portion (about ½ to ¾ cup) of:
• Potato
• Sweet potato
• Quinoa
• Rice

5. No fruit available?
If you’re stuck at lunch and there’s no fruit option, double up on your vegetables instead. This keeps your meal balanced and satisfying.

6. Stay hydrated
Bring a refillable water bottle and pack a few herbal tea bags in your travel bag. Hydration helps digestion and energy especially when you're eating out more often.

7. Plan for a treat meal, if it fits your weekly plan
Consider scheduling it while you’re away. Choose something you’ll enjoy, eat it slowly, and let it feel intentional (not like a slip-up.)

8. Focus on consistency, not perfection
You’ve already come so far. A few flexible swaps while travelling won’t undo your progress. Just get back to your full routine once you’re home.

I get it — you’re 11 days into your reset, feeling focused and on track…
And now your friends have invited you out to dinner. 😬

Should you go? Should you cancel?
Here’s my honest take:

If you're thinking of cancelling — I totally understand the hesitation. But I’m not a big fan of that choice (and here’s why).

Life is too short to keep putting joyful moments on hold.
This journey isn’t just about food — it’s about learning to live well in real life… even when things aren't perfect.

You're almost at that 14-day milestone. One meal out of 42 isn’t going to undo your amazing progress. What matters more is how you approach it.

Ask yourself:
👉 Can I make a healthy choice?
👉 Can I stay mindful with my portions?
👉 Will I feel proud of how I showed up?

If the answer is yes — that’s a huge win. 💪

If you feel like it would totally derail you, then waiting is okay too — but let that decision come from intention, not fear or restriction.

There’s no “right” answer — just the one that supports your long-term vision.

What would feel most aligned for you right now?

When Karen came to Solera, she had a full plate—and not just figuratively.

At 52, she was a thriving dentist with a packed schedule, a long history of endurance running (over
100 marathons and half-marathons!), and a clear mission:

“I wanted to lose 30 pounds, calm my anxiety, reduce stress, sleep better, and get rid of the heartburn and bloating.”

Karen also knew what she didn’t want: another diet full of calorie counting, restrictions, or fads that made her feel like she had to put her life on hold. She needed the right nutrition to support her running—not just more rules or restrictions.

Enter Metabolic Balance®

After an initial consultation and lab work, Karen received her fully personalized Metabolic Balance® plan designed to support:
Weight release
Hormonal balance
Better digestion and sleep
And the right fuel for her body and running goals

And then… something clicked.

In just six months, Karen didn’t just reach her goal—she surpassed it.

Released 34 lbs (with 21 lbs of fat loss)
Slept more soundly
Saw a major improvement in mood
Said goodbye to bloating and heartburn
Ran a half-marathon during the program
Felt more confident and in control- without tracking anything

“This was the easiest program I’ve ever done,” she told us.

“No calorie counting. No macro tracking. Plus, it helped me try new foods I never would’ve considered before.”

She stuck with the plan—even during travel, an injury, busy clinic days, and girls’ weekends. It wasn’t about perfection; it was about consistency and the right support.

It’s not just the number on the scale. It’s the fact that she stayed true to her goals while living a full life. She proved that it
is possible to prioritize your health even when you’re incredibly busy.

Karen stayed consistent. That’s what makes her story so powerful. She didn’t do it by being perfect. She did it by showing up for herself, over and over again.

And she did it in a way that felt doable, not overwhelming.
