Transitioning from summer to fall can be a struggle for some. Our instincts are to dive right into all things comfort - breads, pastas, mashed potatoes, cookies, and of course Starbucks much anticipated Pumpkin Spiced Latte.
 
While all of these things aren’t horrible - in moderation - our cravings can often take over, and crowd out nourishment.

Having these staple food items in your pantry will help set you up for healthy eating success…especially when those cravings hit!

Be sure to watch to the end...I think you will be surprised by number 10!

Let me know which ones you'll be adding to your pantry!

How to Oatmeal for better Energy , Weight Loss and Productivity

GOOD MONDAY MORNING 

Are you a fan of oatmeal? I’m talking the rolled or steel cut oats that you have to cook in water or milk


A lot of people stay away from oatmeal for a few reasons :

Carbs

Taste bland

Not filling


First - yes oats are mostly carbohydrates. They also contain fibre and protein (most found in the steel cut oats) so they are one of the best carbohydrates that your body can use

Second - if you cook oats in water and eat them without any additional flavours… then yes, yes it will be bland

Third - if you’ve had oats before that haven’t been filling it’s probably because they were from a package with added sugar (maple or cookies and cream). The oats in these packages are low protein, low fibre and high sugar which leads to low satiety


How to make your OATMEAL the best meal of your day (energy, productivity and weight loss are all side effects):

Active Parent Mindset and Nutrition

I really always wanted to be an Active Parent - I realized where I was going wrong

It’s AMAZING how our brains work - and when it comes to health so much of the time our brains go to WEIGHT LOSS 

Coaching many many people and going through my own health journey has lead me to believe it’s the reason why there are so many un- achieved long term goals
