Holiday season tip #1: Don’t turn up starving.

It is a busy time of year with meals often being missed but what you don't want to do is arrive at a work do absolutely starving…then suddenly the nibbles table becomes dinner.
I've done this countless times. And it never feels great afterwards.

A simple fix?
✅Have a proper, protein-rich meal or snack before you go.
Think eggs, yoghurt + fruit, cottage cheese on crackers, leftover chicken, or even a protein shake.

And don’t forget hydration. Half the time we think we’re hungry, we're actually just thirsty. Arriving thirsty also means that first alcoholic drink might do down a lot quicker than you intended.

Arriving fed and hydrated helps you make better choices, enjoy what you really want, and avoid that I overdid it feeling later.

How do you navigate the holiday season social functions?

**Good luck to all the mums and dads committed to the Elf on the Shelf antics this month.

If the thought of going to Christmas parties fills you with fear then try some of these strategies. If weight loss is a goal or you’re trying to eat well and you don’t want to eat all the snacks or over eat on the dinner make sure you arrive having had something to eat before hand a small amount of protein paired with some healthy fat can make all the difference. Secondly make sure you’re hydrated throughout the day especially if you’re going to have an alcoholic beverage if you arrive Thursday then you’re more likely to guzzle that first drink drink a few glasses of water before you arrive and you’ll be able to sip more slowly on your drink.

Lots of women I work with want to increase their protein but don’t love the idea of relying on powders or bars. And the good news is, you don’t have to.

This week I’ve shared a new blog all about how to hit your protein target using simple, everyday foods.
No powders, no packaged snacks. Just real meals that keep you full, calm, and energised through the day.

Inside, I cover:
✅How much protein per meal is realistic
✅Breakfast, lunch, and dinner ideas using food you already have
✅Quick top-ups that aren’t bars or shakes

If you’re trying to tidy up your nutrition or get on top of energy and cravings, this is a great place to start.

If weight loss is a goal and you’re struggling to see a change on the scales, then it is likely you are not in a calorie deficit. Some of the biggest culprits that can put you into a calorie surplus foods like peanut butter and mayonnaise. 1 tablespoon of each equates to around 120 cal and that’s a level tablespoon as well not a heaped one. If you are struggling to lose weight, then look at your portion sizes of foods like these ones.

Want to know what I put in my salad for lunch most days? Essentially it is just a fridge rate of whatever I have in there that I shopped for over the weekend. I always start with spinach or some sort of salad green top with chopped veggies including capsicum, cucumber, cherry tomatoes. Top with some cheese today it’s feta and add some toasted seeds. Then on goes the chicken today it’s chicken thigh cooked in the air fryer and finally some pomegranate seeds which are my current favourites. Super simple really nutritious and will keep me going until dinner time.

Weight-loss medications are becoming more common here in NZ, and I’m talking to more and more women who are wondering if they’re the right fit for them.

For some people they can help, especially if you’ve tried to change your habits and still feel stuck or if your weight is seriously affecting your health. But like anything, they work best when you’re prepared.

If you’re thinking about using them, it pays to have a plan around the following:

✅High-protein, nutrient-dense meals
✅A simple strength-training routine
✅A hydration plan to support digestion
✅A supportive food environment at home
✅Foundational habits you can stick to

I’ve written a short blog that explains why these matter and how to get started.
Link in the comments.

And if you’re using weight-loss medication, or considering it, I can support you as a registered nutritionist to make sure you’re looking after your body along the way.

Not sure what to focus on when looking at nutrition Labels they can be quite confusing. Try and focus on protein fibre and sugar and that will be less overwhelming. Remember 1 teaspoon of sugar equals 4 g so if you’re reading a label and it says it has 20 g of sugar then you know it has 5 teaspoons of sugar in it and that’s a lot. Hope you find that helpful.

I’m a big fan of pomegranate, especially through summer. The seeds add so much to a salad… juicy, bright, full of colour, and they really lift the flavour of my favourite warm-weather meals.

They are a bit of a labour of love to get out, but absolutely worth it.
I just slice the pomegranate into quarters and pop the seeds out with my thumbs. (Tip: maybe don’t wear a white top… they have a habit of squirting!)

They keep well for a few days in the fridge, so I usually prep a container to make salads quick and easy. You can buy the seeds already removed, but I tend to avoid those, it’s hard to know how long they’ve been sitting there, and they’re always better fresh.

A few nutrition perks worth mentioning:

✅High in vitamin C, which helps with immunity
✅A good source of fibre, which supports digestion and keeps you fuller for longer
✅Rich in plant antioxidants that support heart health and reduce inflammation

Here’s a photo of the pomegranate salad from my Lunch Recipe eBook (you can download it for free, link in comments).

Do you use pomegranate in your summer meals?

Are you drinking enough water? I am always surprised about the amount of people I work with that Don’t drink any water at all. Being hydrated has so many benefits and helps our organs function to the best ability, can help with brain fog and brain function and generally just makes us feel better. if you do struggle to drink water think of ways you could add it into your day. Do you have an existing habit that you could attach it to? Could you have a glass of water at the end of each meal? Could you fill up a large bottle and have it on your desk at work or my favourite from one of my clients put eight empty glasses on the bench and work your way through them as the day goes on.
