I know how hard it can be to eat and get a meal in with newborns…trust me, I had twins 😰

So many of my meals were while holding/nursing my babies, standing up and Baby wearing and eating, letting baby fuss in a safe place for 30secs while I made a quick PBJ, or grabbing them and then finishing my meal.

I’m proud of this mama for taking the 10secs to get something, but hopefully she came back and had a full meal (even if it was while holding her baby).

I love having one handed snacks on hand (maybe presliced deli meat, baby carrots + hummus, trail mix, PBJ, banana, meat sticks).

Put your meals/soups/stews in a mug - so much easier to eat it one handed and also not worry about spilling.

Food is fuel and you are a grown adult and can’t live off of your kids leftovers or snacks throughout the day.

You will feel SO much better if you can prioritize some meals.

If you need help with your nutrition, and if you’re unsure how to nourish yourself and support your body during pregnancy/postpartum, we’d love to help you! Comment “support” and let’s get you feeling good!

Happy Veterans Day to my amazing husband, whose dedication, sacrifice, and strength have shaped not just his life, but ours as a family.

I am so incredibly proud of him. It has been a HARD road, especially on the family - Night shift, swings, TDYs, deployments, moves, the physical and mental impacts that comes with the job etc etc.

He’s one year officially retired, and it is so wonderful having him home. It’s interesting to see the relationship that our youngest twins have had with their dad at this age, than our first two where he was gone so much 🥺

My business wouldn’t be where it’s at without him. Being a military spouse, allowed me to use the MyCAA scholarship to become an IBCLC lactation consultant.

I started my business in Hawaii where he was stationed at Hickam AFB.

Because of his deployments and crazy hours and night shifts, I was forced to get my health together postpartum and really understand just HOW important nutrition is to carry the family and show up everyday for my kids and my clients.

To my hubs - I’m sorry for everything you’ve been through and the mental and physical toll this job has done to you ❤️‍🩹but thank you for serving your country and all that you do especially for your family!

So happy to have you home and to have your help 😅

Happy Veterans Day to everyone and of course the spouses who are holding down the fort and holding the family together!❤️🤍💙

Contrary to what “diet culture” tells you, we actually ADDED more food and more calories into her diet 😱

and as a result, this mom lost 20+ pounds during our short time together and is on trajectory to continue.

but the biggest win she said was her energy significantly improved, as well as her digestion. She went from 98 symptom points to 20!!!!!!!

What we focus on with our clients is actually eating MORE nutrient dense foods and targeted nutrients supported by lab work, while making it easy and realistic as a busy full-time working mom of Littles.

We focus on NOURISHING your body and supporting your metabolism and ADDING nutrients in and weight loss comes as a byproduct of that.

So much of diet culture pushes weight loss and cutting things out, but you still feel exhausted and tired and still might experience digestive issues.

Her weight loss was slow and steady but she FEELS better and no longer has bloating, acid reflux, and no longer feels like she needs a nap everyday. Her poops are also more regular.

▶️If you want to feel your best and improve your energy and possibly have weight loss (which we never guarantee because it’s more so about supporting your metabolism which can take time for some people), then we would love to help you!

we know how busy and challenging this season can be, but we are here to give you realistic tools so that no matter what season you’re in, you can feel confident.

▶️Comment “support” and let’s get you thriving and feeling good postpartum 🙌🏼

‼️btw we consider postpartum anytime after having a baby, so whether you’re 5months or 5+years, we can help! While our niche is women’s health, we’ve also have helped a number of men too)

‼️also yep, hiding in the pantry 😆 these are some of the snacks we have

If you’re joining me in the with where we are donating our milk to a local milk bank and in exchange earning $250, I’d love to show you a way you can collect your milk especially if you’re a “just enougher”.

1) Collect milk from the side the baby didn’t nurse on. You could use the haakaa, bon trove or anything similar
2) If baby takes both breasts, then pump the side baby just came off of - I suggest “parallel pumping” where you do this simultaneously to save you time
3) Or pump during a stretch where your baby is not feeding. This is the route I personally am taking.

If you’re interested in earning $250 while also helping a huge cause and helping milk banks get more breastmilk, then comment “milkdonation” to learn more!
Are you joining me?

I’m so excited to be participating in the with . This challenge is a call to action to encourage breastfeeding moms to donate breastmilk and help save infant lives.

By donating your milk, you’re joining a growing movement of kindness, compassion and empowerment. Donors will receive a $250 gift card as a thank you for their time and effort. This simple yet profound act of generosity can have a life-changing impact on infants in need of nourishment. Together we can make a difference 1 ounce at a time.

All you have to do is donate your breastmilk to a milk bank and show receipt and ConceiveAbilities will send you $250 as a thank you! There is a huge need for more donor breast milk, which is why they are incentivizing people to donate!

Comment “milkdonation” and I’ll send you more information on how to get started. If you can’t donate your milk, I’d love it if you passed the word so we can get more mom’s making $250 while helping a cause.

Have you been a donor or recipient of breastmilk?

So many of you asked for the enchilada recipe after I shared it the other night, so here it is! 👇

I call this my lazy lasagna enchiladas 😅 — and if you’re Mexican, please don’t take offense! I’m just a busy mom trying to get dinner on the table faster. Instead of rolling each tortilla, I layer everything like lasagna.

I also swap sour cream for Greek yogurt + cottage cheese to boost the protein 💪

Always aim for protein • fiber • fat in every meal!

✨ Recipe (makes 2 pans — double or triple for leftovers!)
• 4 lbs chicken (protein)
• 1 packet corn tortillas (fiber/carbs)
• 2 cans black beans (fiber + protein)
• ½ cup Greek yogurt (protein + fat)
• ¼ cup cottage cheese (protein + fat)
• 1 bag frozen bell peppers, cooked (fiber)
• 1 can diced tomatoes (fiber)
• 1 can diced green chilies (flavor + fiber)
• 4 cans enchilada sauce (flavor!)
• Optional: cheddar cheese on top

Freezer tip:
You can layer everything in glass or foil pans. I usually freeze the uncooked ones — just thaw the morning of (or bake from frozen).
⏱ 350°F for about 1.5 hours if taking from frozen or ~30-45mins if going from thawed, then broil for 5 minutes to get that crispy top!

Tag me if you try it — I’d love to see your version!

Nearly 7 million pregnant and postpartum women, infants, and young children are at risk of losing WIC benefits if the government shutdown continues.

WIC holds a special place in my heart — it was my very first job as a Registered Dietitian and the place where I learned about breastfeeding and lactation consultants for the first time.

I later became the clinic coordinator at the Pearl City WIC Clinic before it sadly closed due to funding cuts back in 2017.

While I’m donating to local food banks and contacting my representatives, I’ve been thinking about what else I can do, especially for families who may temporarily lose access to breastfeeding support through WIC.

So If you’re being impacted, I’m offering a “pay what you can” lactation consult during this time. Whatever you’re able to contribute, we’d love to support you and your breastfeeding journey.

Comment “WIC support” and I’ll DM you next steps!

(This photo is from Halloween at WIC where we were all “emojis”) ☺️😊

So many of our clients come to us for a variety of symptoms:

extreme exhaustion
painful periods
insomnia
digestive issues
skin breakouts and flares
hormonal imbalances etc

but these symptoms are just that - a sign that something is off

But it doesn’t tell you WHY something is off.

You can have the same exact symptoms as your friends, but your “root cause” can be very different.

You might google your symptoms, and get a whole bunch of possibilities, but your “root causes” can be very different making things VERY confusing and frustrating.

This is where working with health professionals - like functional registered dietitians 🙋‍♀️can be so helpful, because we can look at the whole picture and rule out a variety of things to help us figure out WHY you are experiencing those symptoms.

Is it actually your gut, or is it blood sugar spikes/crashes, a dysregulated nervous system, nutrient depletion, poor drainage pathways (are you pooping everyday? Getting enough water? Fiber?) etc etc

My team of functional dietitians would love to help you get targeted answers into WHY you’re having those symptoms.

No more spinning your wheels and late night googling- we’re here to help you! Comment “support” and we’ve got you! Getting answers and alleviating your symptoms and enjoying this season is well worth the investment!
