Fuel to Thrive

We are a group of dietitians and personal trainers wanting to help you optimize your health! We educate, empower, and walk alongisde our clients.

We love working with athletes, those with chronic GI conditions, and peri/menopausal women! Fuel can be looked at literally, as food, and metaphorically, as passions. I think we need to recognize what fuels us metaphorically before looking at what fuels us literally. What gets you excited? What gets you out of bed in the morning? Is it a competition you are training for, or is it the moments you get to spend playing with your grandkids? No matter what fuels you metaphorically, I can help you find what fuels you literally. I do this by living up to my mission: Redefine health. Empower individuals. Create lasting changes.

3 Ways to Spice Up Your Meals!

Out of ideas for flavors or seasonings in a power bowl or stir fry? These are three of Lori's go-to flavor combinations for quick and delicious ways to spice up a meal!

Asian fusion: Try a simple bowl style meal with soy or tamari sauce, toasted sesame oil, and Sriracha or Gochujong paste for spice!

Mexican style: Dress up your protein item with homemade taco seasoning! Try cumin, paprika, chili powder, salt, and pepper. Or, use fun toppings like cilantro, salsa, Greek yogurt, lime juice, and avocado.

Greek style: Try using a dried herb blend or fresh dill, sauces like Tsaziki and hummus, and garnishing with olives!

Halloween’s almost here! Whether you’re taking the kids trick-or-treating, heading to a party, or passing out candy, it’s a night full of fun — and plenty of sweets.⁠
⁠
Here’s your nutrition trick (and treat): don’t head into the night hungry.⁠
Eat a balanced meal with protein, fiber, and healthy fats first — it’ll help steady your blood sugar and keep you feeling good all evening.⁠
⁠
Then, practice a little mindful eating:⁠
• Choose your favorite treats (the ones you really enjoy)⁠
• Slow down and savor them⁠
• Stay hydrated and have fun!⁠
⁠
A healthy approach includes room for flexibility — so nourish your body, enjoy a few sweets, and soak up the fun and memories of the night.⁠

Gut-Friendly Snack Ideas:

Snacking between meals can get a bad rep in some health and wellness spaces, but I take a very different view! In fact, the right snacks can play a huge role in supporting gut health and keeping energy steady throughout the day. Whether it’s fiber to keep things moving, probiotic and prebiotic foods to nourish your microbiome, or pre-workout fuel that digests well, these are some of my favorite gut-friendly picks:

1) Greek yogurt with blueberries and granola → A triple win for your gut: probiotics from the yogurt, fiber + antioxidants from the berries, and prebiotic fiber from whole-grain granola. *Bonus tip: it’s so much cheaper (and healthier) to make your own granola. My go-to recipe is linked below if you want to give it a try!⁠)*

2) Carrots and cucumber with hummus + Simple Mills crackers → Crunchy veggies provide fiber and hydration, while hummus (made with chickpeas and tahini) adds prebiotic fiber that feeds your gut bacteria.

3) Sourdough toast with almond butter and jam (pre-workout) → Traditional sourdough fermentation supports digestibility and gut-friendly compounds in bread, while the quick carbs and healthy fats give you steady energy for movement.

✨Supporting your gut health can be as simple as choosing snacks that deliver a mix of fiber, probiotics, and prebiotics!

Running, hiking, or training in the summer heat? Your body needs more support than usual—and fueling smart makes all the difference.⁠
⁠
Here’s how to thrive, not just survive, in the heat:⁠
✅ Hydrate early + often—don’t wait until you’re thirsty.⁠
✅ Add electrolytes—sodium, potassium, magnesium = key⁠
✅ Fuel with carbs—especially for activities over 45–60 minutes⁠
✅ Cool your core—shade breaks, ice packs/bandanas, cool cloths⁠
✅ Listen to your body—fatigue hits faster in the heat⁠
✅ Move in the morning or evening—longer summer days make it possible to avoid peak heat⁠
✅️ Accept that you will be slower and it will feel like you are working harder, until your body adapts, make adjustments to your training expectations!⁠
⁠
You don’t have to “tough it out.” You just need the right tools. 🌿💧⁠
