Fuel to Thrive

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.

We have officially entered into winter training🥶❄️

I actually am currently not training for a specific race! I qualified for Boston in June, but didn't actually hit the final qualifying cut off☹️ and it has left me trying to decide what is next...

BUT, I have had some awesome, very specific threshold and VO2 max training blocks that have left me feeling faster and stronger than...err ever?! I am also focusing on lifting heavier than I ever have. It has been really cool to have the time to let my fitness adapt in a way that I can see and feel it without the deadline of a race.

It is always a good reminder to me and my endurance athlete clients that goals don't always have to include races and finish lines!! And if you're looking for specific help, don't hesitate to reach out to a coach- whether that is me or not- to help you get there!

And yes, I also know I will get back to racing😁

Considering a GLP-1 medication? Maybe you’ve heard a friend talk about their experience, maybe your provider has brought it up, or maybe you’re just starting to explore your options.⁠

At Fuel to Thrive, we take a neutral, evidence-informed approach to GLP-1s. These medications can be incredibly valuable for the right person—but they work best when paired with nutrition guidance and a plan for long-term support.⁠

Here’s what we see every day as dietitians:⁠
✨ Some clients come to us thinking they need a GLP-1 and discover—through education, fueling strategies, and consistent support—that they can reach their goals without medication.⁠
✨ Others decide a GLP-1 is the right tool for them, and they feel safer, more confident, and more successful having a dietitian walk with them through the process.⁠
✨ And some begin working with us while already using a GLP-1 and are able to transition off sustainably, without the rapid regain or confusion that can happen without guidance.⁠

No matter what path you choose, you deserve support that looks at the whole picture—your habits, your metabolism, your relationship with food, and your long-term wellbeing.⁠

If you’re considering a GLP-1, already on one, or wondering what’s next, our registered dietitians are here to help you build a plan that considers your long term health.⁠

Curious what support for your unique situation could look like? Let's Talk!

Thinking about signing up for a spring marathon, half marathon, or trail race? Or maybe your training is already underway—either way, running alone isn’t enough to reach your best performance.⁠

Smart fueling is just as important as mileage. It keeps your energy steady, speeds recovery, reduces the risk of injury and burnout, and helps you feel strong even after your longest training runs.⁠

At Fuel to Thrive, we help athletes:⁠
✔️ Build personalized fueling strategies for training and race day⁠
✔️ Optimize carbs, protein, and hydration for peak performance⁠
✔️ Practice fueling during long runs to prevent GI issues⁠
✔️ Recover faster with nutrition tailored to your needs⁠

When you fuel properly, your runs feel easier, your body recovers faster, and race day goes the way you planned.⁠

✨ Whether it’s your first race or your next PR, we help you train smarter—not just harder.⁠

Navigating Your Food Mindset Over the Holidays⁠

The winter holidays are such a special time—and as they get closer, it’s worth talking about something many people quietly struggle with: feeling stressed, guilty, or overwhelmed around all the festive food. When the season centers on big meals, family traditions, and lots of treats, it’s completely normal to feel unsure about how to approach it all.⁠

Instead of slipping into all-or-nothing thinking, here are a few grounding principles to help you feel your best:⁠

✨ Keep your normal eating pattern.⁠
Skipping meals or “saving up” for a big dinner usually backfires. Eating consistently supports steady energy, a stable mood, and helps you stay in tune with your hunger and fullness cues.⁠

✨ Remember that balance is part of a healthy life.⁠
Holiday foods are meant to be enjoyed! Eating past fullness happens to everyone sometimes, and your body knows how to recalibrate. You might feel less hungry the next day—and that’s totally normal.⁠

✨ Try gentle movement, if it feels good.⁠
A casual walk with loved ones after a meal can support digestion, boost your mood, and help you connect away from the table. No rules. No “earning” your food. Just movement that feels good.⁠

One of our amazing clients recently shared her story on the blog 💛⁠

After running nine marathons, Bekah realized she’d been under-fueling for all of them.⁠

As a former college runner, she believed “skinnier = faster” and survived on smoothies and toast. It wasn’t until working with Fuel to Thrive that she learned how to truly fuel to perform — eating enough, timing it right, and letting food work for her instead of against her.⁠

Now she finishes long runs strong, recovers faster, and still has energy left to show up for her family — no more post-run crashes or all-day exhaustion ⁠

Read Bekah’s full story here: https://www.yourfueltothrive.com/blogfeed/spokane-nutritionist-changed-my-marathon-fueling

And if you’re curious about marathon fueling or want help building a plan that actually works, reach out — we’d love to help!⁠

Fun Fall Snack Alert 🍁🍎

A couple weeks ago I was craving caramel apples BIG TIME! Which is funny because I think the last caramel apple I had was like 5 years ago 🙃 Anyways, I picked up some caramel cups and whipped together this fun snack...

-1/2 caramel cup
-Greek yogurt
-Apple slices

Mix the caramel and yogurt together and dip your apples!

Now, I know you may be surprised that I am promoting caramel as a snack but if we are being 100% honest, 1/2 a caramel cup has equal to or less added sugar than a flavored yogurt 🤯

Hope you enjoy!!!
