Hey there!
A couple weeks ago on social media I asked about what plant-based proteins you all liked and used and I got some great feedback. For the most part the response I got suggested the Vega brand, so I thought I would give it a shot!
Good morning, friends!
So, about two weeks ago I started to consider a full day fast. I subscribe to a type of fasting called intermittent fasting (at times in certain scenarios also called time-restricted eating) on a daily basis by only eating in a certain time window. I’ve found multiple benefits in this practice and have heard of greater benefits from participating in longer fasts.

Have you ever wondered how many Calories you need, how to figure it out, and how to keep track?? Look no more! I’ve made a cheat sheet to get you started that’s free to my subscribers ๐

Hey all!
A few months back I posted about a nutrition course that I was offering in the office that I work in. The feedback I got from that was that I needed to do another session, in the fall, when people were less busy. Well, being that I’ll be officially starting my masters program in just a few short weeks, fall is not exactly the most ideal time for me to be taking on extra projects. That doesn’t mean I gave up on the idea entirely though! I had the equipment, and a few extra hours, to be able record and upload all of the content that I presented during the six-week course.
So the title of this book alone can provoke some thought. No, this book isn’t about some crazy alien/human race that has taken over and is a mere 10% human. This title is referring to the amazing fact that we are more microbe than we are human. For every one cell that is actually you, actually human, there are nine other cells of bacteria and/or fungi making your body home.
Most of the time my cardio is 20-30 minutes of intervals on the elliptical with the occasional sprint session on the treadmill or outdoors. Unfortunately, running long distances (over 1/2 mile) is out of the question with my chronic knee pain. ๐
Every now and then I like to mix it up with a high intensity cardio circuit (like the one I’ll be giving you today) and it’s always the most challenging, and the most rewarding, cardio session I do. It’s something that I hope to be adding into my training on a regular basis in the near future. So, for those of you that are sick of the boring repetition of the treadmill or elliptical, or just love the challenge of high intensity work, check out this cardio circuit!
Fri-YAYYYYY!!!
Last week I held my first nutrition education session, and last night the second. Two down, four to go (but it’s not too late for you to join us! ๐ )
I am actually having fun going through all of my resources, preparing, and teaching these classes. Based on my love for spreading information about health, and a client request, today’s post is going to include my PowerPoint from the class as well as my notes, or anything that I emphasized.
If this content interests you consider coming to a class or I may even record my classes or make PowerPoints with audio available for those that can’t attend classes. Please, please, PLEASE, let me know your opinions. ๐
Hey there! To “celebrate” Thursday and also make fun of my own grammar pet peeves. So, a while ago I posted about Abs So Fruitly being a business and the services that were being offered. Well, starting in just one week, I’m going to be teaching some basic nutrition classes...
If you’re aware of my current eating patterns, you may be surprised to see me writing about grains as I choose not to include them in my diet on a regular basis. However, they can be part of a healthful carb-based diet. In today’s grocery stores we see breads labeled...
My last edition of this “Road to Grad School” series was my undergraduate graduation. That was the end of one chapter and the beginning of another. Since then I have spent hours upon hours attempting to perfect my application for Eastern Michigan University’s Masters of Dietetics program and sent it...
