Many people find it difficult to know what to eat with all the conflicting information out there today. Many of the clients I train are trying to lose weight and nutrition plays a huge role - 'Abs are made in the kitchen' is a great saying! There is no point working hard in the gym if you aren't eating correctly.
I feel it is all about changing bad habits and replacing them with good habits. I set weekly goals for my clients which gives them something to focus on each week. We work on that goal until it is a habit. I teach them to eat healthily when they are in control so that they feel they can enjoy the odd treat when they are socialising.
A lot of snacks you can buy in the shops are stuffed with excess sugar. Not great if you're trying to eat healthily or lose weight! But having a snack available to you is often beneficial, especially post work-out if your next meal isn't for a while.
Try this healthy alternative to shop-bought cereal bars. It's really simple to make, and leaves you in control of your sugar intake.
Pancake Day is almost here! Many people look forward to their annual pancakes but if you’re trying to lose weight or eat more healthily, traditional pancakes made with flour might not fit into your diet. You don’t need to miss out, however, as we’ve created a delicious and healthy pancake recipe that uses bananas instead of flour.
If you never feel quite right without some cookies in the cupbord for when you get home from a hard day, why not whip together some of these super simple banana and oat cookies! They have about half the average sugar content of shop bought cookies!
Are you partial to a cake with your afternoon tea? Does your office encourage you to bring in baked goods to share around? Well you can't go too wrong with these coconut flour based muffins!
