Hey, team! I'm going around to give my pep talk in my games today. Lucky you!

Credentials: NBHWC Coach here

Are you working out all the time? Barely eating meals? Feeling tired, discouraged, confused? Still not losing weight or not feeling physically better despite weight loss?

Things to try:
- Cut back to 2-3 days a week of workout, and go for a nice medium-long walk another day
- Our bodies like smaller amounts of food more times a day. Instead of 1-2 big meals, maybe try 4 smaller ones (and a snack?).
- How is your protein intake? You need more than you think. Plant proteins are great to add, as well as protein powder.
- Fiber is an underrated weight loss helper. Whole grains and green veggies are a great place to get fiber.
- How is your hydration? Under drinking water can cause stasis.
- How is your sleep hygiene? Getting less than 6 hours a night or sleeping in overlit rooms halts weight loss.
- How is your stress? Untreated distress produces excess cortisol, which is a big contributor to weight gain or stall. Resting and relaxation aren't lazy -- they are essential tune-ups for our body machines' wellbeing.

Drop a comment - is there an area above you might change your approach to based on this post? I'm curious!

That’s was supper : cabbage and kale salad
Beef taco lettuce wrap . I had the salad first and the taco 2 hours later.
